Session Share Plugin

What is it?

This plugin allows the user to share the current session in two ways:

1. Share current session
2. Invite other users

Building the Plugin

To build the plugin for production use, follow these steps:

cd $HOME/src/plugin-session-share
npm ci
npm run build-bundle

The above commands will generate the dist folder, containing the bundled JavaScript file named SessionSharePlugin.js. This file can be hosted on any HTTPS server along with its manifest.json.

If you install the plugin separated from the manifest, remember to change the javascriptEntrypointUrl in the manifest.json to the correct endpoint.

To use the plugin in BigBlueButton, send this parameter along in create call:

pluginManifests=[{"url":"<your-domain>/path/to/manifest.json"}]

Or additionally, you can add this same configuration in the .properties file from bbb-web in /usr/share/bbb-web/WEB-INF/classes/bigbluebutton.properties
