Step-3:

Add a shortcode widget to the previously created container.

Step-4:

Enter the following shortcode in the shortcode widget. Replace src attributes value with your own streaming URL.

Sample Shortcode:

[iframe allow="camera;microphone" id="iframe_1" src="https://connector.eagle3dstreaming.com/v5/demo/E3DSFeaturesTemplate/E3DS-Iframe-Demo" width="100%" height="500px" allowfullscreen]

Step-5:

Now apply all the changes and the stream should start.

 

 

Communicate with Your App:

Step-1:

First you’ll need to add a plugin to use javascript in your website. Go to Plugins → Add New Plugin and search “simple custom css and js“.

Install and activate the marked plugin.

Step-2:

Go to Dashboard → Custom CSS $ JS → Add Custom JS. Now add the title of the javascript file. You can get the necessary javascript codes here: GitHub - e3ds/E3DS-Iframe-Demo at wordpress-demo-js

Add all three javascript files one by one and publish them. After publishing you can go to All Custom Code to view all your javascript files.

Step-3:

Now go back to your page and add another container. Inside that container add an HTML widget.

Edit HTML to add buttons with click handlers in your webpage.

Sample HTML:

<div> <div> <button onclick="switchTo(1)">Teleport(1)</button> <button onclick="switchTo(3)">Teleport(3)</button> </div> <br/> <input type="text" placeholder="Enter Streaming URL" id="urlInput"/> <button onclick="updateStreamURL()">Set URL</button> </div>

Here, switchTo() and updateStreamURL() functions are defined inside demo.js file.

function switchTo(val) { console.log("=== Registered switchTo action, Value is: ", val); let descriptor = { Teleport: val }; //emitUIInteraction(descriptor); let obj ={ cmd: "sendToUe4", value: descriptor, }; document.getElementById("iframe_1").contentWindow.postMessage(JSON.stringify(obj), "*"); } function updateStreamURL(){ const url = document.getElementById('urlInput').value; document.getElementById("iframe_1").src = url; }

Step-4:

Receiving data from Unreal App to the parent webpage

After sending the data we will receive a response the the unreal app. This response can be caught by using window.e3ds.onEvent function. Here’s an example of that -
