npm install md-gum-polyfill> A polyfill to use the Promise-flavoured, mediaDevices based version of getUserMedia, in browsers that support some sort of getUserMedia.
With this polyfill you can access getUserMedia like this:
``javascript
navigator.mediaDevices.getUserMedia({ video: true, audio: true }).then(function(stream) {
}, function(error) {
});
`
versus the old version:
`javascript
navigator.getUserMedia({ video: true, audio: true }, function(stream) {
}, function(error) {
});
``
Look at index.html and main.js in the example folder to see how to use the result of the stream to display a video on screen when successful, or how to detect errors and showing a message to the user.
Here is a list of browser support for WebRTC / getUserMedia.
