Summary

Most of the code here is from #185 . The person who created this PR was not responding to the review comments for a while. So, we recreated the same PR with the review comments fixed.

The review comments fixed are-

  1. Added i18n translation to texts in Jitsi plugin system console settings.
  2. Updated UI of system console to clarify the type of Jitsi server user will be using
  3. An error occurred when we were using the locally-generated private key to sign the JWT token for JaaS. That error is also fixed in this PR.

Screenshots

  1. Updated UI
    currently

  2. Updated description to clarify how to generate a private key

Small remark: README.md needs an update too. But preferably as a follow-up PR, since this PR has been delayed for years already...

For who wants to test, see #206 how to build. Use the gh pr checkout 219 to checkout this PR.

I'll be testing it out the coming weeks. I think it needs some more documentation, but that should not be obstructing for this PR

Problems we found till now (everybody in EU):

  • doesn't handle high DPI very well. In some moments some UI elements were off-screen
  • for some users the video would freeze
  • audio and video were slightly out-of-sync
  • video would turn blurry once in a while

I think all of these problems can be seen as different problem from this PR, except maybe the first. We have not tested with Jitsi's public server.

@mickmister @VincentSC This PR has been on hold for a while. Should we assign this for QA review?

I am not sure if this is something we can handle as we are just sending a payload to an external Jitsi API. Can we create a separate issue for this if this is not concerning? So, this PR can be merged as it has been delayed a lot already.

@mickmister @VincentSC This PR has been on hold for a while. Should we assign this for QA review?

As the plugin has many problems (it does not build, as the dependencies are very outdated), I have not managed to test it yet. Even my comment of #206 (comment) is now outdated...

Suggestion for order of fixes:

  • update dependencies (so we can close Manual Build part is broken #206)
  • 8x8 support (this PR, rebased)
  • UI glitches (of later concern, needs new issue as suggested)

@VincentSC

Can this be rebased against #237 ? Simply because that PR builds, and this one doesn't.

@raghavaggarwal2308 Can you please update your branch with master to so it includes #237?

It has been merged into master, I just saw.

This is causing build errors for me. I removed it again and it built fine. There are some test failures, though, but I'm not sure if they are caused by this.

@Snektron It's building fine for me with this dependency and falling if I remove it. Also, this dependency is being used in the code, so I don't think it can be removed. Can you please share some screenshots of the errors you are facing?

We tested for a few weeks. One big problem: every reconnect adds another MAU (Monthly Active User).
So it becomes more a pay-per-use or a pay-per-connection instead of a pay-per-user. :(

Got this as a reply from 8x8:

Regarding the MAU count, you can check our docs here, so in short we store a deviceId on the local storage of the browser when a user joins a meeting, if the user clears the cookies, switches browser or device it will join with a different deviceId thus it will be counted as an extra MAU.

Hi @VincentSC, thanks for reporting this.

every reconnect adds another MAU (Monthly Active User).

Do you happen to have any suggestions on how we might solve this on our end? I'm not 100% sure what is meant by "reconnect" here

IIUC, there is a JWT token in the user's location URL, while in Mattermost? That seems unnecessary if that's the case

@ayusht2810 What is in window.location.search at the time of this code running? Is this in a Mattermost webapp context? Meaning is location.origin the Mattermost server at this time?

@mickmister Yes, the origin is the mattermost URL at this time, and the location.search contains the meeting ID and the JWT token.

@raghavaggarwal2308 I found a issue while testing this PR.
Issue: Authentication failed: Sorry you're not allowed to join this call.

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Upload the Jitsi plugin to mattermost server
  2. Switch the Jitsi server to Jaas
  3. Setup the AppID and API key
  4. Create a new Jitsi meeting and try to join it

Actual: Error toast message is shown - Authentication failed: Sorry you're not allowed to join this call and user is unable to join the call.
Expected: User should be able to join the jitsi call for jaas server.

SS for the reference:
