createCallObject()
createCallObject({properties})
Create a video call object as part of the current page's JavaScript environment (not isolated in an iframe).
This is an advanced usage of the react-native-daily-js API, and gives you raw access to MediaStreamTrack objects, and other WebRTC objects, for building custom video call experiences.
The argument is an optional properties
object that configures call settings. These settings include:
url
token
subscribeToTracksAutomatically
reactNativeConfig
lang
{ dailyConfig: experimentalChromeVideoMuteLightOff: boolean }
receiveSettings
For full details on all the properties, see the properties list.
If you don't set at least the url
property via createCallObject()
, you'll need to set it later when you call the join()
or load()
method.
If you don't set at least the url
property in this object, you'll need to set it later when you call the join()
or load()
method.
destroy()
on an existing one before creating a new one. Duplicate call object instances will result in a plethora of issues and loud warnings. Starting in daily-js
0.43.0, createCallObject()
will throw an Error
if multiple call object instances are detected. If you believe you may suffer from duplicate call object instances and wish to preview this behavior, add strictMode: true
to your properties
.
