FM WebSocket 4.0

Description​

Minimal setup guide for Internet Live Stream via FMWebsocketManager.

Basic Setup​

FM WebSocket 4.0 supports “Room System” with customised room name. All the data are streaming through the self-host node.js server. (server script included in the package)

This package includes example script of a very light-weight node.js server, which you may host it on any Cloud Virtual Machine(linux, windows or mac)

There are two parts in this tutorial setup.​

Part A: node.js server

Part B: Unity3D FMWebSocketManager

Part A: Node.js server​

Our example server is located in our plugin root folder

/FMWebSocket/TestServer_v6.x.x/Resources/FMWebSocket
  1. Install npm + node.js Download and install necessary items
https://nodejs.org/en/download/
  1. Install express https://expressjs.com/en/starter/installing.html
cmd/terminal: npm init
cmd/terminal: Enter…
cmd/terminal: npm install express –save
  1. Install ws module
cmd/terminal: npm install ws
  1. Finish & Test on localhost

You may follow this step-by-step tutorial, the commands are compatible in Mac/Windows/Linux https://youtu.be/Zjm5KGHyceU​

Part B: Unity3D FMWebSocketManager Setup​

Setup for Sender Scene(Sender)​

  1. Create a new GameObject in your scene, and name it FMWebSocketManager.
  2. Add Component FMWebSocketManager.cs
  3. Choose NetworkType: Room
  4. enabled Auto Init is recommended, which will automatically start the connection in runtime.
  5. you may also connect them manually as alternative via script. fmetp-stream-fmwebsocket4-s1
//All node.js server examples are included in "/FMWebSocket/TestServer_v4.x.x"

//---------------- For NetworkType: Room ----------------
//Connect as "Room" network type, Create or Join Room with customised name
FMWebSocketManager.instance.Action_JoinOrCreateRoom("MyRoomTest");
//Close connection from node.js Server
FMWebSocketManager.instance.Action_Close();
//Request for Network identify "RoomMaster"
FMWebSocketManager.instance.Action_RequestRoomMaster();

//Send to all Room Clients including yourself
FMWebSocketManager.instance.SendToAll(byte[] _byteData);
FMWebSocketManager.instance.SendToAll(string _stringData);
//Send to Room Master
FMWebSocketManager.instance.SendToServer(byte[] _byteData);
FMWebSocketManager.instance.SendToServer(string _stringData);
//Send to Others
FMWebSocketManager.instance.SendToOthers(byte[] _byteData);
FMWebSocketManager.instance.SendToOthers(string _stringData);
//Send to Target WISD in the same room
FMWebSocketManager.instance.SendToTarget(byte[] _byteData, string _wsid);
FMWebSocketManager.instance.SendToTarget(string _stringData, string _wsid);
//---------------- For NetworkType: Room ----------------

//---------------- For NetworkType: WebSocket only ----------------
//Connect as "WebSocket" network type, WebSocket Mode is only for standard websocket connection
FMWebSocketManager.instance.Action_InitAsWebSocket();
FMWebSocketManager.instance.WebSocketSend(byte[] _byteData);
FMWebSocketManager.instance.WebSocketSend(string _stringData);
//---------------- For NetworkType: WebSocket only ----------------
