This application should give you a ready-made starting point for writing your own video apps with Twilio Video. Before we begin, we need to collect all the config values we need to run the application:
| Config Value | Description |
|---|---|
| Configuration Profile SID | Identifier for a set of config properties for your video application - find yours here. |
| 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. |
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.
This application uses the lightweight Spark Framework, and requires Java 8 and Maven.
Begin by creating a configuration file for your application:
cp .env.example .envEdit .env with the four configuration parameters we gathered from above.
Next, we compile our application code:
mvn packageNow we should be all set! Run the application using the java -jar command.
java -jar target/video-quickstart-1.0-SNAPSHOT.jarYour application should now be running at http://localhost:4567. Select any room name and join the room. Join the same room with another user in another browser tab or window to start video chatting!
