daily-core and webrtc-daily

[pinkforest]

It seems to miss daily-core etc. sources to build ?

Unfortunately, that's right. We will publish those sources at some point, but I can't say exactly when.

@aconchillo Any update on releasing those libraries?

At work we are using the agora c++ sdk to interface with their network through a gstreamer-like application. I am evaluating Daily since a lot of the AI solutions being discussed really align with what we are building.

I am looking to evaluate how we can push data from this application into Daily. My understanding is that we need those libraries to build a wrapper of this package without the python specific stuff (our stack is in Elixir) or access to APIs to push h264/aac into Daily. We could also handle the RTP packetization in our pipeline though.

Hi @nickdichev! Apologies for the delay, somehow the notification got lost in my inbox. Currently, daily-python is probably your only option. This will connect to Daily's backend servers (SFU) and you will be able to stream audio/video. This uses WebRTC so RTP packetization, jitter buffer, packet retransmission, etc is handled by the WebRTC stack.

I wrote an example that uses GStreamer a while back. It's basically a video player, it reads an MP4 file and sends it to the Daily room using daily-python: https://github.com/daily-co/daily-python/blob/main/demos/gstreamer/media_player.py

We have many customers who don't have a Python backend and what they do is spawn a Python process. But yes we are aware that the ideal solution is to make our internal Rust libraries public.

I hope this helps. let me know if you have any questions and I'd be more than happy to help.
