How can we pass string data(parameter) between two clients? Is this achieved by RTCDataChannel?

GaelHLago commented 8 years ago

use a JSON ? { "data": "parameter", "timestamp": "YourTimestamp" }

And just use DataChannel to send the json

Is there any DataChannel implementation or sample code or documentation for RTCDataChannel implementation?

hey, I'm new to this repo. So do I need DataChannel if I just need to send a command(used to control a mini car)?

WebRTC doesn't provide signaling, so you probably use WebSocket, XMPP or any signaling protocol. You can send datas from those channels without using datachannels. Integrating DataChannel isn't so hard, you just have to set the delegate and understand what is a DataChannel for webrtc (check https://developer.mozilla.org/fr/docs/Web/API/RTCDataChannel)
