Server-less OTT-Only TV Channel Playout
Install necessary packages:
$ npm install
When developing and running local server providing the lambda API endpoints are available. To run in development mode (i.e. server is restarting on file change):
$ npm run dev-server
And for testing and debugging
$ npm run debug-server
If you want to use another endpoint for the assetmanager API for example you set the environment
variable ASSETMGR_URI.
$ ASSETMGR_URI=<URI to API> npm run debug-server
And to configure endpoint for adcopymanager API the environment variable ADCOPYMGR_URI is defined
$ ADCOPYMGR_URI=<URI to API> npm run debug-server
Default port for the Channel Engine is 8000 so to test the stream point your browser or HLS video player to: http://localhost:8000/live/master.m3u8
To run the frontend locally start a simple HTTP server (requires python installed) with this command:
$ npm run frontend
and then point your browser to http://localhost:3000/?dev
The query parameter dev instructs the frontend to use the Channel Engine running on localhost.
