BigBlueButton™ integration for Nextcloud
This app allows to create meetings with an external installation of BigBlueButton.
👏 Developer wanted! If you have time it would be awesome if you could help to enhance this application.
This app uses BigBlueButton and is not endorsed or certified by BigBlueButton Inc. BigBlueButton and the BigBlueButton Logo are trademarks of BigBlueButton Inc.
😍 Features
This integration provides the following features:
- Room setup Create multiple room configurations with name, welcome message, ...
- Share guest link Share the room link with all your guests
- Custom presentation Start a room with a selected presentation from your file browser
- Manage recordings View, share and delete recordings for your rooms
🚀 Install it
The easiest way to install this app is by using the Nextcloud app store. If you like to build from source, please continue reading.
To install it change into your Nextcloud's apps directory:
cd nextcloud/apps
Then run:
git clone https://github.com/sualko/cloud_bbb.git bbb
Then install the dependencies using:
make build
⚙️ Configure it
Get your BBB API url and secret by executing sudo bbb-conf --secret
on your
BBB server.
$ sudo bbb-conf --secret
URL: https://bbb.your.domain/bigbluebutton/
Secret: abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz012345679
Link to the API-Mate:
https://mconf.github.io/api-mate/#server=https://...
Enter these values in the additional settings section on the admin configuration page of your Nextcloud instance.
Create your first room
Go to the BigBlueButton section inside your personal settings page and enter a room name. That's it. You can now distribute the room url.
Enter a room from files
Use the ... menu and select the desired BBB configuration to enter the room. Beware that if the room is already running the presentation will not be updated. Entering a room with a defined presentation works only if link shares are enabled and do not require authentication. See #1 for details.
📓 Notes
- By using the Link Editor you can share rooms as any other file
⛏️ Troubleshooting
- Before installing, make sure your BBB is running correctly
- If no session opens with the ... menu of files, but a session opens in the general configuration page, look at your browser console. It will show a well hidden complaint that for sharing always a password is required. If this is the case, remove that requirement in sharing / enforce password.
- If the room doesn't appear in the ... menu of files, a browser/cache reload might help
