Real-Time-Video-Streaming

a real time streaming video application using RTSP (Real Time Streaming Protocol)

Part two of the Project

• Ceilometer metrics the second part consist in configuring ceilometer, monitoring instances, creating graphs using sophisticated algorithms

How it works

• NodeJs launchs a child process (ffmpeg) to get the data from the rtsp source
• ffmpeg receives the data from the RTSP source, decodes it and generates images.
• Then these images are sent to client browser through SocketIO

Getting Started

These instructions will get you a copy of the project up and running on your local machine for development and testing purposes.

Using Docker Image

• under development

Manual Installation

$ git clone https://github.com/YassineFadhlaoui/Real-Time-Video-Streaming.git
$ cd Real-Time-Video-Streaming

Install client dependencies

```
$ cd client
$ npm install
```

Install server dependencies

```
$ cd server
$ npm install
```

Running the tests

how to run the project ?

RTSP source

You need an RTSP source to get this project working for example you can use VLC to spoof a RTSP traffic to do so see RTSP Streaming using VLC

• The generated rtsp link must look like rtsp://localhost:8554/vid

Start the server

First of all you have to replace the second line in the Real-Time-Video-Streaming/server/streamserver.js file by the path of Real-Time-Video-Streaming folder

The server uses ffmpeg to get the data from RTSP Server, decodes and generates the images that will be displayed in the client browser using SocketIO to start the server issue these commands

$ cd server
$ node streamserver.js

Start the client application

$ cd client
$ npm start 

then visit http://localhost:8000/

Requirments

• ffmpeg installed
• nodejs installed

Used programming languages

• Javascript
