BigBlueButton API Wrapper for Laravel

This is a laravel wrapper for BigBlueButton API

Requirements

• Laravel 5.5 or above.

Installation

Require package in your composer.json and update composer. This downloads the package and the official bigbluebutton php library.

composer require djoudi/bbb-laravel

After updating composer, add the ServiceProvider to the providers array in config/app.php

 Djoudi\Bigbluebutton\BigbluebuttonProviderService::class,

You can optionally use the facade for shorter code. Add this to your facades:

'Meeting' => Djoudi\Bigbluebutton\BigbluebuttonMeeting::class,

Usage

You can define Big blue button secret key and server url in two ways.

1. Define in .env file

BBB_SECURITY_SALT =bbb_secret_key
BBB_SERVER_BASE_URL=https://example.com/bigbluebutton/

1. Define in config/bigbluebutton.php

 'BBB_SECURITY_SALT' => 'bbb_secret_key',
 'BBB_SERVER_BASE_URL' => 'https://example.com/bigbluebutton/',

Via Dependency Injection in Controller

List all meetings

namespace App\Http\Controllers;
class MeetingController extends Controller
{
    /**
     * @var \Djoudi\Bigbluebutton\Contracts\Meeting
     */
    protected $meeting;

    public function __construct(Meeting $meeting)
    {
        $this->meeting = $meeting;
    }
    /**
     *  Returns a list of meetings
     */
    public function all()
    {
        $meetings = $this->meeting->all();
        if ($meetings) {
            // do something with meetings
        }
    }

Create meeting

use Djoudi\Bigbluebutton\Contracts\Meeting;
use BigBlueButton\Parameters\CreateMeetingParameters;
use Illuminate\Http\Request;

class MeetingController extends Controller
{
    /**
     * @var \Djoudi\Bigbluebutton\Contracts\Meeting
     */
    protected $meeting;

    public function __construct(Meeting $meeting)
    {
        $this->meeting = $meeting;
    }

    /**
         * Create a bigbluebutton meeting
         *
         * @param \Illuminate\Http\Request $request
         * @return void
         */
        public function create(Request $request)
        {
            $meetingParams = new CreateMeetingParameters($request->meetingId, $request->meetingName);
            $meetingParams->setDuration(40);
            $meetingParams->setModeratorPassword('supersecretpwd');
    
            if ($this->meeting->create($meetingParams)) {
                // Meeting was created
            }
        }

Join a meeting

use Djoudi\Bigbluebutton\Contracts\Meeting;
use BigBlueButton\Parameters\JoinMeetingParameters;
use Illuminate\Http\Request;

class MeetingController extends Controller
{
    /**
     * @var \Djoudi\Bigbluebutton\Contracts\Meeting
     */
    protected $meeting;

    public function __construct(Meeting $meeting)
    {
        $this->meeting = $meeting;
    }
    /**
     *  Join a bigbluebutton meeting
     *
     * @param \Illuminate\Http\Request $request
     * @return void
     */
    public function join(Request $request)
    {
        $meetingParams = new JoinMeetingParameters($request->meetingID, $request->meetingName, 'MyMeetingPassword');
        $meetingParams->setRedirect(true);
        $meetingUrl = $this->meeting->join($meetingParams);
        redirect()->setTargetUrl($meetingUrl);
    }

}

Close meeting

use Djoudi\Bigbluebutton\Contracts\Meeting;
use BigBlueButton\Parameters\EndMeetingParameters;
use Illuminate\Http\Request;

class MeetingController extends Controller
{
    /**
     * @var \Djoudi\Bigbluebutton\Contracts\Meeting
     */
    protected $meeting;

    public function __construct(Meeting $meeting)
    {
        $this->meeting = $meeting;
    }
    
    /**
     * End a bigbuebutton meeting
     *
     * @param \Illuminate\Http\Request $request
     * @return void
     */
    public function close(Request $request)
    {
        $meetingParams = new EndMeetingParameters($request->meetingID, $request->moderator_password);
        $this->meeting->close($meetingParams);
    }
}

Via Laravel Facade

You can also manage meetings using the facade

Meeting::all(); //get a list of all meetings
