NIP-100 WebRTC
==============
`draft` `optional` `author:jacany`
This NIP defines how to do WebRTC communication over nostr.
---------------------------------
## Defining Rooms
Rooms are essentially the space that you will be connected to. How rooms are defined depends.
1. Is this a one-on-one call? In that case just use the `p` tag.
2. If it is a group call (multiple people), then you will need both the `p` tag for communicating who the event is for, and the `r` tag for defining the room id.
In that case, when you are sending `connect` or `disconnect`, the usage of the `p` and `r` tag varies on your requirements
## Peers
Who the client connects to can be chosen by the client. Ex: you can connect to everyone peer-to-peer or a WebRTC media server that is listening on nostr relays.
## Encryption
The `content` field and `r` tag of types `offer`, `answer`, and `candidate` should be encrypted, similarly to `NIP-04`.
Clients MUST listen for the `p` tag containing their pubkey so they know that event is intended for them
⚠️ `content` FIELDS SHOULD BE JSON STRINGIFIED, AND THEN ENCRYPTED. ⚠️
### Broadcasting that you are present
Announces that the client is ready to connect to others.
The connection ID is inferred from the provided pubkey.
```json
{
"kind": 25050,
"pubkey": "<sender pubkey>",
"tags": [
["type", "connect"],
...roominfo
]
}
```
### Closing
This is used when disconnecting from everybody else. Ex: when browser tab is closed.
```json
{
"kind": 25050,
"pubkey": "<sender pubkey>",
"tags": [
["type", "disconnect"],
...roominfo
]
}
```
### Offering to connect
Used when responding to a `type:connect`. Offering to connect to that peer.
```json
{
"kind": 25050,
"pubkey": "<sender pubkey>",
"tags": [
["type", "offer"],
["p", "<reciever>"],
["r", "<optional encrypted room id>"]
],
"content": {
"offer": "<offer>",
"type": "offer"
}
}
```
### Answering an Offer
```json
{
"kind": 25050,
"pubkey": "<sender pubkey>",
"tags": [
["type", "answer"],
["p", "<reciever>"],
["r", "<optional encrypted room id>"]
],
"content": {
"sdp": "<sdp>",
"type": "answer"
}
}
```
### Broadcasting ICE Candidate
```json
{
"kind": 25050,
"pubkey": "<sender pubkey>",
"tags": [
["type", "candidate"],
["p", "<reciever>"],
["r", "<optional encrypted room id>"]
],
"content": {
"candidate": "<sdp>",
...misc
}
}
```
