Add an option to set a default logo to be placed for all created meetings.
The default logo is inserted as a create meeting param for all meetings that
do not have a `logo` param defined. Two new properties were included at
bigbluebutton-web configuration:
- [Boolean] `useDefaultLogo`: enables/disables the use of the default logo
disabled as default
- [String] `defaultLogoURL`: The default logo URL to be fetched by the client
bigbluebutton logo as default
Moderators are able to send a message to the meeting's guest lobby. This new
event reaches bbb-web and is sent to the guest user with her/his status response
while polling. All guest users that are waiting for acceptance will be able to
read this message.
enableGuestLobbyMessage is disabled by default.
operators can define their own config for bbb-web which will not be
overwritten by packages.
bbb-conf is changed accordingly to write configuration values to
``/etc/bigbluebutton/bbb-web.properties`
Associate pads with meetings so session validation is restricted to the
meeting's valid session tokens.
Meteor will dispatch new redis events on shared notes and closed captions
pads creation. This event will go through apps and reach web to populate
a new meeting's pad collection that contains all valid pad id's for that
session. Nginx will use this collection to check if the user's session token
belongs to the pad's authorized users.
Besides these modifications, an extra change will be needed at notes.nginx.
Location /pad/p/ needs to change it's auth_request:
from /bigbluebutton/connection/checkAuthorization;
to /bigbluebutton/connection/validatePad;
Changes to the current (v2.2) default configuration of the guest feature.
The ideal is to keep the simplified guest feature as default (`authenticatedGuests=false`)
but we also need to be in sync with Greenlight settings to make this happen.
Greenlight will have to re-add the `guest=true` param on user's join API call when ASK_MODERATOR
is set as guest's policy.
This patch includes two improvements made for bbb-web. It tries to better isolate
the sessionToken's handling and session's validation, including logs for each one of
these steps; and removes maxParticipats control from registered users (that are no
longer removed from bbb-web collections) binding it to joined users or users that
reached the enter API call. The following adds more details about this last one:
User's regular flow to join a meeting goes around an API join call -> redis register event ->
redirect to client page -> API enter call -> redis join event. When the guest policy is ASK_MODERATOR,
non-moderators are registered and redirected to a guest lobby that polls for her/his guest status and
only enters the meeting after a moderator approval.
Using registered users as control to check how many participants are in a meeting is problematic because
non-approved guests are counted as participants and bbb-web has to find out when to ditch registered users
records to make a seat in a meeting available again. In other words, a meeting with maxParicipants
of 5 can get it's joins locked with a moderator and 4 waiting guests or bbb-web can wrongly drop a registered
user record on a reconnection inducing weird 401 responses from the API.
This change proposes to control maxParticipants both at join and enter API calls monitoring the number
of redis joined users. This also includes an extra buffer to capture users that called the enter API but
still don't have an user joined event.
User left events are now handled different holding the user data before removing from the joined users collection
and only releasing after verifying that the user didn't reconnected.
Both user left timeout `usersTimeout` and entered user timeout `enteredUsersTimeout` can be configured at properties.
Use the former Flash client avatarURL join param to replace the name
initials avatar from the user list, chat, waiting guests and connection
status list.
It is possible to define a defaultAvatarURL at bbb-web and enable/disable it
- add meetingEndedURL and endWhenNoModerator create param
- meetingEndedURL is complete
- endWhenNoModerator is partially implemented. Will be continued in another PR.
