Im doing exactly this, but will use it with a raspberrypi with a 7 inch touch screen as my doorbell. Someone hits the link on the screen, it hits the server, server texts me a link to join the video session and thats it really. I got the core code going (I used a simple tornado [python] implementation as it has web sockets built in)

This is the version of the js code that I got going (I couldn't reason about straight inline scripting, I had to make unnecessary classes. you dont need them) https://gist.github.com/emehrkay/1ea9a87a91e00b27843d9b71a3c...

You also need to tell nginx to serve the wss connection with http 1.1 or the handshakes fail

``` location /websocket/path { proxy_pass http://whateverSiteDotCom; proxy_http_version 1.1; proxy_set_header Connection "upgrade"; proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade; proxy_set_header Origin ''; } ```

Looks nice, here's the final working JS file from this blog post's example, no classes: https://github.com/m-butterfield/mattbutterfield.com/blob/88...

A bit dense, and could use some error handling...but it actually seems to work fine!

This looks pretty straight-forward and makes me wonder if im doing too much work creating and juggling two RTCPeerConnection connections. I will try your approach

This code works fine in iOS safari (and desktop chrome, Firefox, and safari). I've seen a few comments on how mobile safari has pitfalls or is the new IE, but there isnt any specific code there for safari. it all just works

I really like the video doorbell project, can you make it OSS and put it on a Github repo?

[emehrkay]

Yes. I will show a show hn post when I get it all running
