How to build

It is recommended to compile on Ubuntu or macOS. Compiling on Windows is cumbersome, and some features are not compiled by default.

Before Building

  • You must use Git to clone the complete code. Do not download the source code by downloading the ZIP package. Otherwise, the submodule code will not be downloaded by default. You can do it like this:
git clone https://github.com/xia-chu/ZLMediaKit.git
cd ZLMediaKit
git submodule update --init

Building on Linux

  • My Environment

    • Ubuntu 16.04 (64-bit) with GCC 5.4.
    • CMake 3.5.1.
  • Guidance

      # If it is on CentOS 6.x, you need to install a newer version of GCC and CMake first,
      # and then compile manually according to the "build_for_linux.sh" script.
      # If it is on a newer version of a system such as Ubuntu or Debian,
      # step 4 can be manipulated directly.
    
      # 1. Install GCC 5.2 (this step can be skipped if the GCC version is higher than 4.7).
      sudo yum install centos-release-scl -y
      sudo yum install devtoolset-4-toolchain -y
      scl enable devtoolset-4 bash
    
      # 2. Install CMake (this step can be skipped if the CMake version is higher than 3.1).
      tar -xvf cmake-3.10.0-rc4.tar.gz #you need to download the CMake source file manually
      cd cmake-3.10.0-rc4
      ./configure
      make -j4
      sudo make install
    
      # 3. Switch to a higher version of GCC.
      scl enable devtoolset-4 bash
    
      # 4. Build.
      cd ZLMediaKit
      ./build_for_linux.sh
    

Building on macOS

  • My Environment

    • macOS Sierra (10.12.1) with Xcode 8.3.1.
    • Homebrew 1.1.3.
    • CMake 3.8.0.
  • Guidance

    cd ZLMediaKit
    ./build_for_mac.sh
    

Building on iOS

  • You can generate Xcode projects and recompile them , learn more:

    cd ZLMediaKit
    mkdir -p build
    cd build
    # Generate Xcode project, project file is in build directory
    cmake .. -G Xcode -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=../cmake/ios.toolchain.cmake  -DPLATFORM=OS64COMBINED
    

Building on Android

Now you can open the Android Studio project in the Android folder. This is an AAR library and demo project.

  • My environment

    • macOS Sierra (10.12.1) + Xcode 8.3.1
    • Homebrew 1.1.3
    • CMake 3.8.0
    • Android NDK r14b
  • Guidance

    cd ZLMediaKit
    export ANDROID_NDK_ROOT=/path/to/ndk
    ./build_for_android.sh
    

Building on Windows

  • My environment

  • Guidance

1. Enter the ZLMediaKit directory and execute `git submodule update --init` to download the code for ZLToolKit.
2. Open the project with CMake GUI and generate the Visual Studio project file.
3. Find the project file (ZLMediaKit.sln), double-click to open it with VS2017.
4. Choose to compile the Release version. Find the target file and run the test cases.

Usage

  • As a server

    TcpServer::Ptr rtspSrv(new TcpServer());
    TcpServer::Ptr rtmpSrv(new TcpServer());
    TcpServer::Ptr httpSrv(new TcpServer());
    TcpServer::Ptr httpsSrv(new TcpServer());
    
    rtspSrv->start<RtspSession>(mINI::Instance()[Config::Rtsp::kPort]);
    rtmpSrv->start<RtmpSession>(mINI::Instance()[Config::Rtmp::kPort]);
    httpSrv->start<HttpSession>(mINI::Instance()[Config::Http::kPort]);
    httpsSrv->start<HttpsSession>(mINI::Instance()[Config::Http::kSSLPort]);
    
  • As a player

    MediaPlayer::Ptr player(new MediaPlayer());
    weak_ptr<MediaPlayer> weakPlayer = player;
    player->setOnPlayResult([weakPlayer](const SockException &ex) {
        InfoL << "OnPlayResult:" << ex.what();
        auto strongPlayer = weakPlayer.lock();
        if (ex || !strongPlayer) {
            return;
        }
    
        auto viedoTrack = strongPlayer->getTrack(TrackVideo);
        if (!viedoTrack) {
            WarnL << "No video Track!";
            return;
        }
        viedoTrack->addDelegate([](const Frame::Ptr &frame) {
            //please decode video here
        });
    });
    
    player->setOnShutdown([](const SockException &ex) {
        ErrorL << "OnShutdown:" << ex.what();
    });
    
    //RTP transport over TCP
    (*player)[Client::kRtpType] = Rtsp::RTP_TCP;
    player->play("rtsp://admin:jzan123456@192.168.0.122/");
    
  • As a proxy server

    //Support RTMP and RTSP URLs, but only H264 + AAC codec is supported
    auto urlList = {"rtmp://live.hkstv.hk.lxdns.com/live/hks",
    		"rtsp://184.72.239.149/vod/mp4://BigBuckBunny_175k.mov"};
    map<string , PlayerProxy::Ptr> proxyMap;
    int i=0;
    for(auto url : urlList){
    	PlayerProxy::Ptr player(new PlayerProxy("live",to_string(i++).data()));
    	player->play(url);
    	proxyMap.emplace(string(url),player);
    }
    
  • As a pusher

    PlayerProxy::Ptr player(new PlayerProxy("app","stream"));
    player->play("rtmp://live.hkstv.hk.lxdns.com/live/hks");
    
    RtmpPusher::Ptr pusher;
    NoticeCenter::Instance().addListener(nullptr,Config::Broadcast::kBroadcastRtmpSrcRegisted,
    		[&pusher](BroadcastRtmpSrcRegistedArgs){
    	const_cast<RtmpPusher::Ptr &>(pusher).reset(new RtmpPusher(app,stream));
    	pusher->publish("rtmp://jizan.iok.la/live/test");
    });
