* Pretend to upload source maps to sentry * Build release not in docker so we can upload source maps sensibly and also upload the release as a plain tarball while we're at it * fix yaml * Try specifying version this way * test rebuild * pass secrets through * Too many sentries * It's almost 2023 and we're still having BSD vs GNU tar issues * Maybe get sensible tag name & release identifier * Wrong plugin, and also try the 'release' option which might the right thing * Try a different github action see if github likes that any better * add contents write permission and switch to the asset upload plugin that had the helpful doc * actually put release name in tarball path * copy docker config to right path * Prettify vite config * Only activate sentry plugin if we have secrets * Use env var for tag name * Also spelling env correctly would likely help * Fix variable syntax * Put env var in correct place One day maybe I will not find yaml syntax confusing
Element Call
Full mesh group calls powered by Matrix, implementing MatrixRTC.
To try it out, visit our hosted version at call.element.io. You can also find the latest development version continuously deployed to element-call.netlify.app.
Host it yourself
Until prebuilt tarballs are available, you'll need to build Element Call from source. First, clone and install the package:
git clone https://github.com/vector-im/element-call.git
cd element-call
yarn
yarn build
If all went well, you can now find the build output under dist as a series of static files. These can be hosted using any web server of your choice.
You may also wish to add a configuration file (Element Call uses the domain it's hosted on as a Homeserver URL by default,
but you can change this in the config file). This goes in public/config.json - you can use the sample as a starting point:
cp config/config.sample.json public/config.json
# edit public/config.json
Because Element Call uses client-side routing, your server must be able to route any requests to non-existing paths back to /index.html. For example, in Nginx you can achieve this with the try_files directive:
server {
...
location / {
...
try_files $uri /$uri /index.html;
}
}
Development
Element Call is built against matrix-js-sdk. To get started, clone, install, and link the package:
git clone https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-js-sdk.git
cd matrix-js-sdk
yarn
yarn link
Next, we can set up this project:
git clone https://github.com/vector-im/element-call.git
cd element-call
yarn
yarn link matrix-js-sdk
By default, the app expects you to have Synapse installed locally and running on port 8008. If you wish to use another homeserver, you can add a config file as above.
You're now ready to launch the development server:
yarn dev
Configuration
There are currently two different config files. .env holds variables that are used at build time, while public/config.json holds variables that are used at runtime. Documentation and default values for public/config.json can be found in ConfigOptions.ts.
