node-webrtc-audio-source

node-webrtc started supporting programmatic audio since version 0.3.6. But it doesn't cover how to get audio stream from microphone.

This library gives you a RTCAudioSource object which streams audio data from microphone.

Install

yarn add node-webrtc-audio-source wrtc

Usage

import { nonstandard } from 'wrtc'
import RTCAudioSource from 'node-webrtc-audio-source'

const { RTCAudioSink } = nonstandard

const rtcAudioSource  = new RTCAudioSource()
const track = rtcAudioSource.createTrack()
const rtcAudioSink = new RTCAudioSink(track)

rtcAudioSink.ondata = data => {
  // Do something with the received audio samples.
}
rtcAudioSource.start()
setTimeout(() => rtcAudioSource.stop(), 10000) // stop after 10 seconds

How does it work?

macOS
