About The Project

The goal of Video Background Transformer is to create Dyte Meetings' VideoMiddlewares with ease and make it fun to play around with.

Built With

• Dyte
• Typescript

Getting Started

Prerequisites

• npm

Installation

npm install @dytesdk/video-background-transformer

Usage

A videoBackgroundTransformer object can be created using the DyteVideoBackgroundTransformer.init() method.

const videoBackgroundTransformer = await DyteVideoBackgroundTransformer.init();

Types of middlewares exposed by videoBackgroundTransformer: 1. createStaticBackgroundVideoMiddleware expects an imageUrl as a parameter and then creates the image the background for the current user.

meeting.self.addVideoMiddleware(
    await videoBackgroundTransformer.createStaticBackgroundVideoMiddleware(imageUrl)
);

2. createBackgroundBlurVideoMiddleware expects blurLength as a parameter (4px by default) and blurs the background of the user by the given blurLength.

meeting.self.addVideoMiddleware(await dyteVideoBackgroundTransformer.createBackgroundBlurVideoMiddleware(10))

Note: Some browsers or their old versions might not have support for WebGL or the browser APIs that this package uses. We would recommend checking the support beforehand using:

if(DyteVideoBackgroundTransformer.isSupported()){
  const videoBackgroundTransformer = await DyteVideoBackgroundTransformer.init();
  meeting.self.addVideoMiddleware(
    await videoBackgroundTransformer.createStaticBackgroundVideoMiddleware(`REPLACE_THIS_WITH_IMAGE_URL`)
  );
}

Note: Image URLs must allow CORS to avoid tainting the canvas. You can find such images on https://unsplash.com/ & https://imgur.com.
