# Element Call

|

|
|
Full mesh group calls powered by [Matrix](https://matrix.org), implementing [MatrixRTC](https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-spec-proposals/blob/matthew/group-voip/proposals/3401-group-voip.md).
|
|
|
|
To try it out, visit our hosted version at [call.element.io](https://call.element.io). You can also find the latest development version continuously deployed to [element-call.netlify.app](https://element-call.netlify.app).
|
|
|
|
## Host it yourself
|
|
|
|
Until prebuilt tarballs are available, you'll need to build Element Call from source. First, clone and install the package:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
git clone https://github.com/vector-im/element-call.git
|
|
cd element-call
|
|
yarn
|
|
cp .env.example .env
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
You can now edit the configuration in `.env` to your liking. The most important thing is to set `VITE_DEFAULT_HOMESERVER` to the homeserver that the app should use, such as `https://call.ems.host`.
|
|
|
|
Next, build the project:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
yarn build
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
If all went well, you can now find the build output under `dist` as a series of static files. These can be hosted using any web server of your choice.
|
|
|
|
Because Element Call uses client-side routing, your server must be able to route any requests to non-existing paths back to `/index.html`. For example, in Nginx you can achieve this with the `try_files` directive:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
server {
|
|
...
|
|
location / {
|
|
...
|
|
try_files $uri /$uri /index.html;
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Development
|
|
|
|
Element Call is built against [matrix-js-sdk](https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-js-sdk/pull/2553). To get started, clone, install, and link the package:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
git clone https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-js-sdk.git
|
|
cd matrix-js-sdk
|
|
yarn
|
|
yarn link
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Next, we can set up this project:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
git clone https://github.com/vector-im/element-call.git
|
|
cd element-call
|
|
yarn
|
|
yarn link matrix-js-sdk
|
|
cp .env.example .env
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
By default, the app expects you to have [Synapse](https://matrix-org.github.io/synapse/latest/setup/installation.html) installed locally and running on port 8008. If you wish to use another homeserver, you can set it in your `.env` file.
|
|
|
|
You're now ready to launch the development server:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
yarn dev
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Config
|
|
|
|
Configuration options are documented in the `.env` file.
|
|
|
