OpenVidu Server RPC protocol

OpenVidu Server offers a WebSocket endpoint at path /openvidu where clients must connect to ...

  • Call methods: clients are able to directly call OpenVidu Server methods. Some of them will only be available if the user has the proper role inside the session.
  • Receive server events: OpenVidu Server will send session events to clients connected to that specific session.

OpenVidu hides all this implementation with OpenVidu Browser JavaScript library, that can be used in all officially supported platforms. But of course it would be possible to develop an SDK implementing this WebSocket based RPC protocol using any desired language or technology.

For example, openvidu-android tutorial is a native Android app, so it cannot make use of OpenVidu Browser JavaScript library. The solution to this problem: the application internally implements the OpenVidu Server RPC protocol. But to do so, it is necessary to be very clear about what operations-responses and what server events are defined in OpenVidu Server.

Table of Contents:


Client-Server methods 🔗


All operations send by the client side must be a JSON object with these properties

  • id: an integer to identify each operation call. Must be unique with respect to any other RPC operation call for a particular WebSocket connection
  • jsonrpc: version of JSON-RPC protocol. Always "2.0"
  • method: the name of the method
  • params: a JSON object with the method parameters


All responses from OpenVidu Server to each one of these operations are a JSON object with these properties

  • id: an integer matching the id property of the operation call that generated this response. This allows pairing the operation call sent from the client with its respective server response
  • jsonrpc: version of JSON-RPC protocol. Always "2.0"
  • result: a JSON object with the operation result. Its fields are obviously dependent on the method that generated this response. Not included if error property is defined
  • error: a JSON object with information about an error triggered during the operation call. Not included if result property is defined. This JSON object has 2 properties:
    • code: a number identifying the type of error
    • message: a string with a detailed description about the error


ping 🔗

Ping message for the ping-pong mechanism. This is necessary to make OpenVidu Server aware of a client connection, and to act accordingly if no ping is received in a certain interval time. params property is only necessary in the first call to this method.

videoData 🔗

This feature is part of OpenVidu PRO and ENTERPRISE editions.

Method sent by client

{
    "id": 3,

    }
}

prepareReceiveVideoFrom 🔗

This feature is part of OpenVidu ENTERPRISE edition.

When using mediasoup as media server, the subscription operation must begin with this method. Instead of the client generating an SDP offer and the server sending back an SDP answer, roles are reversed. The server must first generate an SDP offer and the client send back an SDP answer. This is why this method is needed when using mediasoup. The steps to follow are the following ones:

  1. Call prepareReceiveVideoFrom indicating with parameter sender the remote stream to subscribe to.
  2. The response will bring an SDP offer in the spdOffer attribute that must be used to generate an SDP answer in the client.
  3. The SDP answer must be sent by the client in method receiveVideoFrom, using parameter sdpAnswer.

    }
}

    "result": {
        "sessionId": "4aktv8cfkhe2ooksplqg0c8v80"
    }
}

connect 🔗

After a network loss and a WebSocket reconnection, this is the first method that the client must send to the server. It will tell if the client still belongs to the OpenVidu Session, or if it is too late and it was evicted from it. See See Automatic reconnection ➞ Signaling plane breaks.

Method sent by client

{
    "id": 18,
    "jsonrpc": "2.0",
    "method": "connect",
    "params": {
        "reconnect": true,
        "sessionId": "4aktv8cfkhe2ooksplqg0c8v80"
    }
}

Response from OpenVidu Server

If the server did not evict the user:

{
    "id": 18,
    "jsonrpc": "2.0",
    "result": {
        "sessionId": "4aktv8cfkhe2ooksplqg0c8v80",
        "value": "reconnection successful"
    }
}

If the server evicted the user:

{
    "id": 18,
    "jsonrpc": "2.0",
    "error": {
        "code": 40007,
        "message": "reconnection error"
    }
}

reconnectStream 🔗

Silently re-negotiates an already established stream, whether it is an outgoing stream (Publisher) or an incoming stream (Subscriber). This can be helpful to reconnect a frozen stream, which may happen when a client loses and recovers its network connection with OpenVidu Server but the media plane remains broken (See Automatic reconnection ➞ Media plane breaks). This method will recreate a new RTC peer connection in a silent manner (without triggering any events in the clients) using the properties of the previous one.

When reconnecting a Subscriber stream in mediasoup (only for OpenVidu OpenViduENTERPRISE), the process is slightly different. See below

Required params are the stream identifier to reconnect and the new SDP offer generated by the client (which must have created a new RTC peer connection object). The answer will bring the new SDP answer to pass it to the newly created client's peer connection.

Method sent by client

{
    "id": 19,
    "jsonrpc": "2.0",
    "method": "reconnectStream",
    "params": {
        "sdpString": "v=0\r\no=- 6389978899592330342 [...] -bc35-59fd59fea848\r\n",
        "stream": "str_CAM_SB57_con_Hr6uUWKHiT"
    }
}

Response from OpenVidu Server

{
    "id": 19,
    "jsonrpc": "2.0",
    "result": {
        "createdAt": 1646826648338,
        "id": "str_CAM_SB57_con_Hr6uUWKHiT",
        "sdpAnswer": "v=0\r\no=- 3855815448 [...] 4E:34:0B:16\r\n",
        "sessionId": "4aktv8cfkhe2ooksplqg0c8v80"
    }
}


When using mediasoup to reconnect a Subscriber 🔗

Before sending method reconnectStream it is necessary to first call prepareReceiveVideoFrom with parameter "reconnect": true like this:

{
    "id": 19,
    "jsonrpc": "2.0",
    "method": "prepareReceiveVideoFrom",
    "params": {
        "reconnect": true,
        "sender": "str_CAM_SB57_con_Hr6uUWKHiT"
    }
}

... which will generate the following response from the server:

{
    "id": 19,
    "jsonrpc": "2.0",
    "result": {
        "sdpOffer": "v=0\r\no=mediasoup-client 10000 [...] a=rtcp-rsize\r\n",
        "sessionId": "4aktv8cfkhe2ooksplqg0c8v80"
    }
}

Use the resulting sdpOffer to generate an SDP answer, that must now be passed as parameter sdpString of method reconnectStream.

    }
}
