WebRTC Externals

WebRTC Externals is a WebExtension that aims to allow much of the same workflow that developers are using on Chrome's webrtc-internals internal page. However, it is implemented as an extension and therefore does not rely on any internal infrastructure. As a result, it can be run in other browsers like Firefox or Microsoft Edge.

Usage

To debug a WebRTC call, make sure that the background page is open by clicking the WebRTC icon labelled "Debug WebRTC" in your browser. Then make a call on a page like one of the WebRTC samples. You should see a an API trace like shown in the WebRTCHacks blog post as a result.

Known issues

The content script only overrides RTCPeerConnection and not the Chrome legacy RTCPeerConnection. If the site you are testing is still using the old variant you might suggest they upgrade.
