BigBlueButton™ integration for Nextcloud

➡️ This app uses BigBlueButton and is not endorsed or certified by BigBlueButton Inc. BigBlueButton and the BigBlueButton Logo are trademarks of BigBlueButton Inc.

Install it

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

find out your BBB secrets by '''sudo bbb-conf --secret'''

enter these secrets in the BigBlueButton settings on the general configuration page of your NC

create your first room

go to your personal settings page

find the BigBlueButton section

enter a room name

enter the room by pointing to the arrow button

enter a room from files

use the ... menu

select the correct BBB room and enter the room

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
