bigbluebot - Installation step

[aguerson]

1) create bigbluebutton user
adduser bigbluebutton
2) create sub dir
mkdir -p /opt/bigbluebutton/bbb-bot
3) change rights
chown -R bigbluebutton:bigbluebutton /opt/bigbluebutton/bbb-bot
chmod 1770 /opt/bigbluebutton/bbb-bot
4) install few packages
apt-get update
apt-get install nodejs
apt-get install npm
apt-get install firefox
5) clone the repo
su - bigbluebutton
git clone git://github.com/mconf/bigbluebot.git /opt/bigbluebutton/bbb-bot/
6) modify the "name" in package.json to bbbbot
7) install the librairies
npm i bigbluebot

... Then I had this error

npm i bigbluebot
loadDep:puppeteer → resol
loadDep:ws → request     
bbbbot@1.3.6 /opt/bigbluebutton/bbb-bot
└── bigbluebot@1.3.6  extraneous

npm WARN ws@7.3.1 requires a peer of bufferutil@^4.0.1 but none was installed.
npm WARN ws@7.3.1 requires a peer of utf-8-validate@^5.0.2 but none was installed.

[aguerson]

OK google is your friend

npm i --save-dev ws
npm i --save-dev bufferutil
npm i --save-dev utf-8-validate

and then

npm i bigbluebot

[aguerson]

OK a new problem

node run.js 
internal/util.js:209
    throw new errors.TypeError('ERR_INVALID_ARG_TYPE', 'original', 'function');
    ^

[aguerson]

OK the problem is the nodejs version so

apt-get remove nodejs --purge
apt -y install curl dirmngr apt-transport-https lsb-release ca-certificates
curl -sL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_12.x | sudo -E bash -
apt -y install nodejs

now I have

 ~$node --version
v12.18.4
 ~$npm --version
6.14.6

su - bigbluebutton

npm i bigbluebot

> puppeteer@5.3.0 install /opt/bigbluebutton/bbb-bot/node_modules/puppeteer
> node install.js

[aguerson]

Can we launch the bbb bot without X display ? ( like https://github.com/aau-zid/BigBlueButton-liveStreaming )

Regards, Aurélien.

[pedrobmarin]

Hi @aguerson .

You can. You probably need just some extra dependencies for chromium to work. You can take a look in this project https://github.com/mconf/charms/tree/v2.2/bionic/mconfless, in particular this install script https://github.com/mconf/charms/blob/v2.2/bionic/mconfless/hooks/install.

[aguerson]

I will try tomorrow morning ;) I will reply this issue next thanks

[aguerson]

I can't use Juju, because I use OpenVZ. In https://github.com/aau-zid/BigBlueButton-liveStreaming, the chrome driver is used to use the browser without X display. Is there something similar with chromium you can adapt to your project ?

[pedrobmarin]

You don't need to use Juju. Just take a look on the extra dependencies at the install script.

[aguerson]

OK I installed the packages

apt-get install -y gconf-service libasound2 libatk1.0-0 libatk-bridge2.0-0 libc6 libcairo2 libcups2 libdbus-1-3 libexpat1 libfontconfig1 libgcc1 libgconf-2-4 libgdk-pixbuf2.0-0 libglib2.0-0 libgtk-3-0 libnspr4 libpango-1.0-0 libpangocairo-1.0-0 libstdc++6 libx11-6 libx11-xcb1 libxcb1 libxcomposite1 libxcursor1 libxdamage1 libxext6 libxfixes3 libxi6 libxrandr2 libxrender1 libxss1 libxtst6 ca-certificates fonts-liberation libappindicator1 libnss3 lsb-release xdg-utils wget

And I read https://github.com/puppeteer/puppeteer/blob/main/docs/troubleshooting.md#chrome-headless-doesnt-launch-on-unix

But if I launch node run.js, always the same

node run.js 
INFO    2020-09-22T08:08:03.994Z Bots: 10

I will check the value about the sandbox...

[aguerson]

OK Maybe I approach from the problem

Before, In the variable

BIGBLUEBOT_HOST

I used

https://hostname.domain/

and it didn't work

now I try with

https://hostname.domain/bigbluebutton/api

Below my error

Any ideas ?

[aguerson]

What do you mean by BIGBLUEBOT_ENDPOINT=wss://your.browser.websocket ?

like wss://chromium.websocket ? I did not understand

[pedrobmarin]

The correct host would be https://hostname.domain.

Maybe try to run it in your local machine first to see how everything works and then adapt it to your vm infrastructure.

Are you sure about the aria-label=Listen only ? I saw the selection between micro or listen , but nothing appened...

The only way that It works is modifying lib/pool.js:

const args = [ --lang=${browser.lang}, --disable-dev-shm-usage, --no-user-gesture-required, // --use-fake-ui-for-media-stream, // --use-fake-device-for-media-stream, ];

This doesn't make any sense to me. Could you share the script you are running?

[amguirado73]

This is my script:

/**

• @name Example
• @desc Dispatch an HTML5 bot script */

const bigbluebot = require('./index.js')

let actions = async page => { await bigbluebot.audio.modal.listen(page) //await bigbluebot.audio.modal.microphone(page) // await bigbluebot.video.join(page) await bigbluebot.chat.send(page) }

bigbluebot.run(actions)

[aguerson]

Works for me too !!

Thanks. Be careful, there are two differents files. It depends what you use

There is lib/pool.js and there is node_modules/bigbluebot/lib/pool.js

Now I will try with many bots !

OK guys, now I passed a next step to this issue. At the beginning, I wanted to launch bots. I can do it now. BUT, bigbluebot doesn't use the new capabilitie of BBB https://docs.bigbluebutton.org/2.2/customize.html with "userdata-bbb". I want to use greenlight ( like in my production env ), so I decided to try. Basically, with this code, you can't create a meeting with greenlight and try to join/add bots, because the code want to create the room. So I checked how the bot is used in the famous project https://github.com/aau-zid/BigBlueButton-liveStreaming, and I found this kind of url

https://hostname.domain/bigbluebutton/api/join?meetingID=idididididididididididididididididid&fullName=Live&password=blablabla&userdata-bbb_auto_join_audio=true&userdata-bbb_enable_video=true&userdata-bbb_listen_only_mode=true&userdata-bbb_force_listen_only=true&userdata-bbb_skip_check_audio=true&checksum=xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

I decided to modify this value ( forcing it ) in the file /opt/bigbluebutton/bbb-bot/node_modules/bigbluebot/lib/api.js

const getURL = (action, params) => {
  const query = buildQuery(params);
  const checksum = calculateChecksum(action, query);
  const host = config.url.host;
  const api = config.api.path;
  const url = `https\:\/\/hostname.domain/bigbluebutton/api/join?meetingID=idididididididididididididididididid&fullName=Live&password=blablabla&userdata-bbb_auto_join_audio=true&userdata-bbb_enable_video=true&userdata-bbb_listen_only_mode=true&userdata-bbb_force_listen_only=true&userdata-bbb_skip_check_audio=true&checksum=xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx`;

  return url;
};

and it works like a charm !!!

So now, I have to verify if I can use it with many random bots.

You will see my results in the next reply ;)

I hope it could help someone

Regards, Aurélien.

Hi @aguerson . I'm sorry you are struggling to understand how this lib works and I'm even more sorry on reading things like this one:

BUT, bigbluebot is old coded (it seems like), maybe used by "mconf" dev teams, and it is using the demo of BBB.

I have no idea who you are or what's your background at this subject and, so far, I tried to help you solve a problem you created yourself. If this project is not helping you the way you think things should work, build your own.

I recommend you to be more respectful at your messages. I'm sure if you knew what mconf does you would.

[aguerson]

As I said by mail, there is a big misunderstanding indeed. What I was trying to translate is that the code that is being used does not use the new features that have been brought in lately by the BBB development team. => https://docs.bigbluebutton.org/2.2/customize.html Of course I respect the code that was made by the developers of mconf and you. I really thank you for it. I have used BBB for 8 months, and it is a really good project ! Let me finish the issue and published my tests. If you allow me to apologize for these remarks, inappropriate.

Thanks you again @pedrobmarin for you confiance ;), and really sorry for my translation :'(

[aguerson]

I close this issue to open a new one with the good instructions, and maybe some help from you ;)
