Live Stream Video Component(Web Desktop Browser)

This document provides a detailed introduction to the live stream video component (LiveView). You can refer to the sample code in this document to integrate our pre-developed components into your existing project, or customize the style and layout according to your needs by following the component customization section in the document.


Core Features

Feature Category
Specific Capacity
Smart stream switchover
LiveView can switch stream types automatically based on the current user's identity (audience or host).
Audience mode: The component plays ultra-low-latency video streams to ensure smooth viewing for millions of audience members while drastically reducing traffic costs.
Connected mode: The component automatically switches to TRTC streaming, providing millisecond-level ultra-low latency to ensure real-time, clear interaction experience between connected users.
Customizable UI
To meet diverse business scenarios, LiveView provides custom UI slots, enabling full control over the co-broadcasting user's video stream area. You can rewrite the UI display, flexibly define the user's avatar, nickname, status, and other information, and easily create a unique visual experience that matches your brand style.

Component Integration

Step 1: Configuring the Environment and Activating the Service

Before quick integration, you need to refer to preparations, meet the related environment configuration and activate the corresponding service.

Step 2: Dependency Installation

npm
pnpm
yarn
npm install tuikit-atomicx-vue3 @tencentcloud/uikit-base-component-vue3 --save
pnpm add tuikit-atomicx-vue3 @tencentcloud/uikit-base-component-vue3
yarn add tuikit-atomicx-vue3 @tencentcloud/uikit-base-component-vue3

Step 3: Joining the Live Room and Performing Voice Chat

Introduce and use LiveView in your project. Copy the following example code directly to your project to join the corresponding live streaming room for co-streaming.
<template>
<UIKitProvider theme="dark" language="zh-CN">
<div class="app">
<LiveView />
</div>
</UIKitProvider>
</template>

<script setup lang="ts">
import { onMounted } from 'vue';
import { UIKitProvider } from '@tencentcloud/uikit-base-component-vue3';
import { LiveView, useLoginState, useLiveState, useCoGuestState } from 'tuikit-atomicx-vue3';

const { login } = useLoginState();
const { joinLive } = useLiveState();
const { sendCoGuestRequest } = useCoGuestState();

async function initLogin() {
try {
await login({
sdkAppId: 0, // SDKAppID, see Step 1 to get
userId: '', // UserID, see Step 1 to get
userSig: '', // userSig, see Step 1 to get
});
} catch (error) {
console.error('login error:', error);
}
}

onMounted(async () => {
await initLogin();
// After the audience enters the live room
// LiveView starts VOD automatically with ultra-low latency
await joinLive({
liveId: 'existing live streaming room Id',
})
// The client can join the live room by calling the corresponding method and switch mic as needed.
// After the audience successfully goes on mic, LiveView autoplays TRTC streaming.
await sendCoGuestRequest();
});
</script>

<style>.app {width: 100vw; height: 100vh; display: flex; justify-content: center; align-items: center}</style>

Custom Slot Example

To help you better experience and understand the customized capability of the LiveView component's seatViewUI slot, we provide a live streaming and mic connection scenario example for your reference. You can refer to the above Step 3 to incrementally copy the following code into your project to achieve a similar scenario effect.
<template>
<LiveView>
<template #seatViewUI="{ userInfo }">
<div
class="live-stream-view"
:class="{ 'is-anchor': isAnchor(userInfo), 'is-guest': !isAnchor(userInfo) }"
>
<!-- Video stream area -->
<div class="video-area">
<!-- The video stream will be rendered automatically -->
</div>
<!-- User information overlay -->
<div class="user-overlay">
<div class="user-badge" :class="{ 'anchor-badge': isAnchor(userInfo) }">
{{ isAnchor(userInfo) ? 'Anchor' : 'Audience' }}
</div>
<div class="user-name">{{ userInfo.userName }}</div>
<div class="device-status">
<span :class="['mic', userInfo.microphoneStatus]"></span>
<span :class="['camera', userInfo.cameraStatus]"></span>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</template>
</LiveView>
</template>

<script setup lang="ts">
import { LiveView } from 'tuikit-atomicx-vue3';
import type { SeatUserInfo } from 'tuikit-atomicx-vue3';

// Determine whether it is an anchor (based on business logic)
const isAnchor = (userInfo: SeatUserInfo) => {
// Here you can judge based on uid and role
return userInfo.userId.includes('anchor') || userInfo.userName.includes('Anchor');
};
</script>
