Video Quickstart for Java

This application should give you a ready-made starting point for writing your own video apps with Twilio Video. Before we begin, we need to collect all the config values we need to run the application:

Config Value Description
Configuration Profile SID Identifier for a set of config properties for your video application - find yours here.
Account SID Your primary Twilio account identifier - find this in the console here.
API Key Used to authenticate - generate one here.
API Secret Used to authenticate - just like the above, you'll get one here.

A Note on API Keys

When you generate an API key pair at the URLs above, your API Secret will only be shown once - make sure to save this in a secure location, or possibly your ~/.bash_profile.

Setting Up The Java Application

This application uses the lightweight Spark Framework, and requires Java 8 and Maven.

Mac & Linux

Begin by creating a configuration file for your application:

cp .env.example .env

Edit .env with the four configuration parameters we gathered from above.

<<<<<<< HEAD

source .env

Windows (PowerShell)

Begin by creating a configuration file for your application:

cp .env.example.ps1 .env.ps1

Edit .env.ps1 with the four configuration parameters we gathered from above. "Dot-source" the file in PowerShell like so:

. .\.env.ps1

This assumes you will run the application in the same PowerShell session. If not, edit the .env.ps1 and uncomment the [Environment]::SetEnvironmentVariable calls. After re-running the script, the environment variables will be peramently set for your user account.

All Platforms

Next, we need to install our depenedencies from Maven:

mvn install

And compile our application code:

Next, we compile our application code:

master

mvn package

Now we should be all set! Run the application using the java -jar command.

java -jar target/video-quickstart-1.0-SNAPSHOT.jar

Your application should now be running at http://localhost:4567. Open this page in a couple browsers or tabs, and start video chatting!
