Laravel Video Chat (fork from wqqas1/laravel-video-chat)
========================================================

[](#laravel-video-chat-fork-from-wqqas1laravel-video-chat)

Laravel Video Chat using Socket.IO and WebRTC

Working on Laravel 6!

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

```
composer require jgizinski/laravel-video-chat
```

Laravel 5.5 uses Package Auto-Discovery, so doesn't require you to manually add the ServiceProvider.

If you don't use auto-discovery, add the ServiceProvider to the providers array in config/app.php

```
Wqqas1\LaravelVideoChat\LaravelVideoChatServiceProvider::class,
```

```
php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Wqqas1\LaravelVideoChat\LaravelVideoChatServiceProvider"
```

And

```
php artisan migrate
php artisan storage:link

change APP_URL in .env
```

This is the contents of the published config file:

```
return [
    'relation'  => [
        'conversations' =>  Wqqas1\LaravelVideoChat\Models\Conversation\Conversation::class,
        'group_conversations' => Wqqas1\LaravelVideoChat\Models\Group\Conversation\GroupConversation::class
    ],
    'user' => [
        'model' =>  App\User::class,
        'table' =>  'users' // Existing user table name
    ],
    'table' => [
        'conversations_table'   =>  'conversations',
        'messages_table'        =>  'messages',
        'group_conversations_table' =>  'group_conversations',
        'group_users_table'     =>  'group_users',
        'files_table'           =>  'files'
    ],
    'channel'   =>  [
        'new_conversation_created'  =>  'new-conversation-created',
        'chat_room'                 =>  'chat-room',
        'group_chat_room'           =>  'group-chat-room'
    ],
    'upload' => [
        'storage' => 'public'
    ]
];
```

Uncomment `App\Providers\BroadcastServiceProvider` in the providers array of your `config/app.php` configuration file

Install the JavaScript dependencies:

```
    npm install
    npm install --save laravel-echo js-cookie vue-timeago socket.io socket.io-client webrtc-adapter vue-chat-scroll
```

If you are running the Socket.IO server on the same domain as your web application, you may access the client library like

```

```

in your application's `head` HTML element

Next, you will need to instantiate Echo with the `socket.io` connector and a `host`.

```
 require('webrtc-adapter');
 window.Cookies = require('js-cookie');

 import Echo from "laravel-echo"

 window.io = require('socket.io-client');

 window.Echo = new Echo({
     broadcaster: 'socket.io',
     host: window.location.hostname + ':6001'
 });

```

Finally, you will need to run a compatible Socket.IO server. Use [tlaverdure/laravel-echo-server](https://github.com/tlaverdure/laravel-echo-server) GitHub repository.

In `resources/js/app.js` file:

```
 import VueChatScroll from 'vue-chat-scroll';
 import VueTimeago from 'vue-timeago';

 Vue.use(VueChatScroll);
 Vue.component('chat-room' , require('./components/laravel-video-chat/ChatRoom.vue'));
 Vue.component('group-chat-room', require('./components/laravel-video-chat/GroupChatRoom.vue'));
 Vue.component('video-section' , require('./components/laravel-video-chat/VideoSection.vue'));
 Vue.component('file-preview' , require('./components/laravel-video-chat/FilePreview.vue'));

 Vue.use(VueTimeago, {
    name: 'timeago', // component name, `timeago` by default
    locale: 'en-US',
    locales: {
        // you will need json-loader in webpack 1
        'en-US': require('date-fns/locale/en')
    }
})

```

Run `npm run dev` to recompile your assets.
