BBB Joiner
BBB Joiner is a tiny web application which allows you to create join links to conferences on your BBB instance. This is useful for integration into other platforms that handle conference creation and joining but you need to be able to invite external clients to your conference.
Installation
Clone the git repository, copy the .env.sample
file to .env
and edit it to match your setup. Then run docker-compose up -d
or deploy it to a docker swarm using docker swarm deploy -c docker-compose.yml bbb_joiner
.
Usage
To create a join link id send a POST
request to your root url with a JSON body of the following format:
{
"meeting_id": "example",
"password": "secret"
}
You will receive a response of the following format:
{
"id": "foo-bar-baz"
}
This id is used to assemble the join link <root url>/<id>
. When a user follows this link they will be presented a simple form where they can enter their name and join the conference by submitting it.
Expiration
Join links are stored in redis and expire by default after 24 hours. This value can be configured by setting LINK_TTL
in the .env
file to the amount of seconds a link should stay available.
Development
Copy .env.sample
to .env
and run make docker-watch
to start a dockerized development environment which will rebuild and run on file changes.
