This repository contains a collection of plain JavaScript code samples, covering several basic Amazon IVS use cases. This project is intended for education purposes only and not for production usage.

💡 Custom Player Controls

Shows how to leverage Amazon IVS's playerSDK APIs to implement custom player controls (Play/Pause, Mute/Unmute, Quality selection).

💡 Simple Quiz

Shows how to leverage Amazon IVS's TimedMetadata API to display a basic Quiz interface. Read more about how to add live video to your apps and websites.

💡 Multiple Players

Shows how to instantiate multiple Amazon IVS players simultaneously.

💡 Minimal Player Setup

Shows a minimal way to implement the Amazon IVS PlayerSDK.

💡 Video.js Integration

Shows how to use the Amazon IVS PlayerSDK with Video.js.

💡 Ambiance Canvas

A demo showing how you can achieve an "ambilight" effect using Canvas and the Amazon IVS Player SDK.

• Open the index.html file of each folder in a modern web browser to test each demo.
• Open any demo's script.js in your favorite code editor, and replace the value of PlaybackUrl with your own Amazon IVS Playback URL to play your own stream.
• Some demos may require running a local server. Here are a few ways to start one:

• Mac/Linux (Python 3):

  python3 -m http.server 8000

• Windows (Python 3):

  python -m http.server 8000

First, install a package like http-server globally:

npm install -g http-server

Then run:

http-server

The basic-custom-stream demo must be run with HTTPS. HTTPS requires a certificate to be generated.

In the sample directory generate a certificate with the following command:

openssl req -newkey rsa:2048 -new -nodes -x509 -days 3650 -keyout key.pem -out cert.pem 

Fill out the relevant details in the promote.

In the sample directory run http-server with the generated certificate:

http-server ./ -S -C cert.pem --port 8000 

In the browser navigate to the provided endpoint, ex https://127.0.0.1. The page will load a warning "This connection Is Not Private" because the certificate is self-signed. Proceed to the page and the player sample will load.

After starting the server, visit http://localhost:8000 in your web browser to view the demos. The port number (8000) can be changed to any available port on your system.

Note: Service Workers (used in the "basic-custom-stream" demo) require the page to be served over either localhost or HTTPS. For more information, see the IVS Low-Latency documentation.

• These code samples were written for demonstration purposes and not for production use.
• These code samples were only tested on recent Chrome and Firefox versions.
