Parsing stream URL parameters

When RTMP stream is published or played on WCS, RTMP connection and stream parameters may be set in stream URL like this:

Code Block
languagebash
themeRDark
rtmp://host:1935/live?connectParam1=val1&connectParam2=val2/streamName?streamParam1=val1&streamParam2=val2

Where

  • host is WCS server hostname;
  • connectParam1, connectParam2 are RTMP connection parameters;
  • streamName is stream name on server;
  • streamParam1, streamParam2 are stteam parameters.

WCS server passes the parameters to backend server in REST hook in custom field, for example:
