Video Access Token Server for Node.js

Looking for the JavaScript Video Quickstart? It has been moved here.

This server-side application demonstrates generating Access Token for Twilio Video. Before we begin, we need to collect all the config values we need to run the application:

Config Value	Description
Account SID	Your primary Twilio account identifier - find this in the console here.
API Key	Used to authenticate - generate one here.
API Secret	Used to authenticate - just like the above, you'll get one here.

A Note on API Keys

When you generate an API key pair at the URLs above, your API Secret will only be shown once - make sure to save this in a secure location, or possibly your ~/.bash_profile.

Setting up the Node.js Application

Create a configuration file for your application:

cp .env.example .env

Edit .env with the three configuration parameters we gathered from above.

Next, we need to install our dependencies from npm:

npm install

Now we should be all set! Run the application using the node command.

node .

To generate Access Token, visit http://localhost:3000?identity=alice&room=example.

Run tests

npm test

video-access-token-server-node's Issues

Should mention Account SID must be Live

Hi,

I tried with the Test Account SID, but there was always a Gateway error. Then I shifted to Live and everything works like a charm.

I think it might be better to mention this in the README.

Thanks

JavaScript formatting

https://github.com/TwilioDevEd/video-quickstart-node/blob/master/public/quickstart.js#L11-L12

This is not acceptable JavaScript formatting in line with the Google Style guide which we use. Also, passing in the empty JS object literal as the second argument is not necessary in the getJSON call.

how can i set the expire time?

i want to set the expire time, please suggest me about the time limits and where to put? if you can share a code sample is fine.

and don't getting choice for select room . please check attachment

JavaScript formatting

Getting closer - in the client-side JS, sometimes you use four space tabs, sometimes two. Need to be consistent. Should leave once space between the // comment and the content of the comment, like the preceding. Also, the indentation and scope nesting of the Ajax call is awkward. Should be (if you use four space tabs):

var identity; // since we need this in other scopes

$.getJSON('/token', function(data) {
    identity = data.identity;
    var accessManager = new Twilio.AccessManager(data.token);

    // Check the browser console to see your generated identity. 
    // Send an invite to yourself if you want! 
    console.log(identity);

    // create a Conversations Client and connect to Twilio
    conversationsClient = new Twilio.Conversations.Client(accessManager);
    conversationsClient.listen().then(clientConnected, function (error) {
        log('Could not connect to Twilio: ' + error.message);
    });
});

function clientConnected() {
  // all other logic
}

HTML Formatting

The indentation is incorrect in the index.html file - should be

Could not connect to Twilio: undefined

Using "twilio": "^3.2.0-edge", on running the application I get Could not connect to Twilio: undefined.

Convert all tabs to spaces

In the index.js source file (the server), there are a few tabs where there should be spaces under token.identity = identity;

Under Firefox

Hello,

I am managing to make use of the code sample without any issue under Chrome. Under Firefox however, big issues appear:

Video gives only the first image and freezes.
Everything stops after 15 secs or so, without the "disconnect" event being ever fired.
My hunch is that WebRTC is the culprit, but this is only a hunch.

Any hints?

example .env file contains wrong instance variables

It still contains TWILIO_IPM_SERVICE_SID, so the instructions in the README won't work.

Illegal constructor

Hi- When I want to run the demo, I see the following error in my browser:
"Could not connect to Twilio. Illegal constructor."
What could be the reason?

Found some Syntax Errors

Hi,

I have Found Following Syntax Errors in the module.

First One:
conversationsClient.listen().then(clientConnected, function (error) {
look at the above line. here, the function clientConnected is called without parenthesis

and the Right way is
conversationsClient.listen().then( clientConnected() , function (error) {

Second One:
conversationsClient.inviteToConversation(inviteTo, options).then(conversationStarted, function (error) {

Here, the function conversationStarted is called without parenthesis, also parameter conversation is not passed

and the Right way is
conversationsClient.inviteToConversation(inviteTo, options).then(conversationStarted(conversationParameter), function (error) {

and I don't know what to pass as conversationParameter. If anyone knows, Please let me know.

Really lost here.

I am attempting to implement the Twilio Video Node.js SDK, and there seems to be 100+ different tutorials, blog posts, etc, that all handle the token generation differently(and the Twilio SDK as a whole for that matter).

I have seen these two methods, plus some more weird ones during my search.

token = new twilio.AccessToken(apiKeySid, accountSid, apiKeySecret);

Twilio.tokens.create((err, response) => {
            if(err){
                console.error('Twilio Create Token Error: ', err);
                                // disregard the Boom error object. 
                return reply(Boom.badImplementation(err));
            }

        });

Is there a definitive way for me to create a user token, have the user attach to Twilio with that token?

Twilio Version 3.0.0-rc.11 Cannot read property 'ConversationsGrant' of undefined

I tried to clone this project and run npm install (no errors encountered)
then node . and this is what happens

/index.js:13
var ConversationsGrant = AccessToken.ConversationsGrant;
                                    ^

TypeError: Cannot read property 'ConversationsGrant' of undefined

    at node.js:968:3

I happen to also clone this project a month ago and running npm install then node . managed to run the project successfully and video call is working as expected. Upon checking that version, it's using 3.0.0-rc.9

There might be something wrong with 3.0.0-rc.11.

Could not connect to Twilio: Connect failed

When trying to connect to Twilio under a new setup, I get "Connect failed". I've browsed around and this is different then the undefined error listed elsewhere. I've tried a LIVE and Test ID, neither seem to be working.

Generating my own token through the website and pasting it in solves the problem, but I would like a solution that could generate it's own token.

Browser: Chrome & Firefox
OS: OSX
Steps to reproduce:

brew install node
cp .env.example .env
Set variables
npm install
node .
Connect to a channel

Audio?

Video seems to work fine, but I don't have audio in this example. Does the mic need to be set-up separately or is this an issue on my end?
