Generating tokens

Creating tokens

To create a token use the createToken function

import { createToken } from "streamthing";

const token = await createToken({
  channel: "main",
  password: process.env.SERVER_PASSWORD,
});
return token;
Warning

Generating tokens should only ever happen on the server to avoid leaking sensitive information to the client

Full example
import { createToken } from "streamthing";

// api/get-streamthing-token
const token = await createToken({
  channel: "main",
  password: process.env.SERVER_PASSWORD,
});
return token;

// Somewhere on the client
const res = await fetch("/api/get-streamthing-token");
const data = await res.json();

const stream = createClientStream({
  region: process.env.SERVER_REGION,
  id: process.env.SERVER_ID,
  token: data.token,
});
createToken()
