GO based WebRTC Remote Desktop allows you to control the computers remotely (like any other RDP softwares) using WebRTC from modern browsers. The backend is a pure GO implementation using Pion WebRTC & RobotGo.
The project is inspired from "WebRTC remote screen (https://github.com/rviscarra/webrtc-remote-screen)". Thanks for such a lovely contribution Rafael Viscarra.
- Remote screen viewing
- Mouse controls ( Move, Click, Double Click, Scroll )
- Keyboard ( Basic controls )
- ... Working on more features !
- Go 1.12+ (https://golang.org/doc/install)
- If you want h264 support: libx264 (included in x264-go, you'll need a C compiler / assembler to build it) (Supports Mac only)
- If you want VP8 support: libvpx (Supports Windows & Mac)
For Windows libvpx installation, follow below installation steps:
1. Download and install latest MYSYS2 installer from https://www.msys2.org/
2. Open MYSYS Shell
3. Install Mingw Toolchain
- 32 bit: pacman -S mingw-w64-i686-toolchain
- 64 bit: pacman -S mingw-w64-x86_64-toolchain
4. pacman -S mingw-w64-x86_64-libvpx
git clone https://github.com/imtiyazs/webrtc-remote-desktop.git
cd webrtc-remote-desktop
go mod tidy
go run -tags "h264enc" cmd/agent.go
Open https://localhost:9000 in the browser
Optional Params:
--http.port=8888--stun.server=stun:stun.l.google.com:19302
- For H264 stream: "h264enc"
- For VP8 stream: "vp8enc"
Build the deployment package by runnning make. This should create a tar file with the
binary and web directory, by default only support for h264 is included, if you want to use VP8 run make encoders=vp8, if you want both then make encoders=vp8,h264.
Copy the archive to a remote server, decompress it and run ./agent. The agent application assumes the web dir. is in the same directory.
WebRTC requires a secure domain to work, the recommended approach towards this is to forward the agent port thru SSH tunneling:
ssh -L YOUR_LOCAL_PORT:localhost:9000 Then access the application on https://localhost:YOUR_LOCAL_PORT, localhost should be considered
secure by modern browsers.
- Tip for production: You need to write your own gateway server for exchanging SDP with the computers behind the NAT.
