screen-record

Capture desktop video using webrtc

Installation

This client-side module is installed via npm:

`` bash
$ npm install screen-record
`

It is a client-side browser that gives desktop recording capabilities to Chrome
when this Chrome Extension is installed.

Example Usage

` js
var screenRecord = require('screen-record'),
getUserMedia = require('getusermedia');
screenRecord(window, (err, sourceId, constraints) => {
if (err) throw err;

getUserMedia(constraints, function (err, stream) {
if (err) throw err;

// now have a webRTC stream of the desktop
})
});
`

API

$3

Asks the Chome Extension to ask the user to authorize and pick a window or
the whole desktop to record.

* window - Optional DOM window object to use to do screen recording magic
(IFRAME insertion, postMessage etc).
* cb(err, sourceId, constraints) - Callback:
* err - Error
* sourceId - The unique webrtc source ID string, that can be passed through
a constraints object in getUserMedia to then create a webrtc stream.
* constraints - Prefilled and ready-to-use getUserMedia constraints object
that can be directly used. The sourceId` is already correctly populated.
