Platform Streaming Agent

The PureWeb platform streaming agent enables your game to communicate and stream through the PureWeb Platform

Install the PureWeb CLI and Streaming Agent

Using yarn:

$ yarn global add @pureweb/platform-cli
$ yarn global add @pureweb/platform-streaming-agent

Using npm:

$ npm install -g @pureweb/platform-cli
$ npm install -g @pureweb/platform-streaming-agent

Access the PureWeb Developer Console

• Navigate to https://console.pureweb.io
• Login (or signup) and create a new project.

Setup CLI credentials

• From the console, select the gear icon from the top menu to access project properties.
• Enable anonymous access
• From the project settings, select the Platform CLI tab. Copy the commands and run them in a console.

For local development, without a published model

• Copy the Default Environment from the Project Properties dialog
• Use the cli to request an agent token: pw agent create --environmentId <your default environment id>

👁   pw agent create --environmentId 12345-6789-1234-5678-123456733212389
{
  "access_token": "ey...iw8rq2Wk",
  "expires_in": 86400,
  "token_type": "Bearer"
}

Set the PUREWEB_AGENT_TOKEN environment variable. This will vary between operating systems and shells.

• Windows PowerShell: $env:PUREWEB_AGENT_TOKEN="<access_token>"
• Windows Command: set PUREWEB_AGENT_TOKEN=<access_token>
• OSX / Linux Bash: export PUREWEB_AGENT_TOKEN=<access_token>

Optional for Unreal

You can change the default port. For Unity, use 9210. For Unreal, you can skip this step. Set the PUREWEB_STREAMER_PORT environment variable.

• Windows PowerShell: $env:PUREWEB_STREAMER_PORT=9210
• Windows Command: set PUREWEB_STREAMER_PORT=9210
• OSX / Linux Bash: export PUREWEB_STREAMER_PORT=9210

Run the streaming-agent:
