Ability to persist RTCPeerconnection connection state

Open unicomp21 opened this issue 3 years ago • 2 comments

Provide a way to persist RTCPeerconnection state in something like localstorage, so it can survive a reboot of the host, and resurrect w/o having to use websocket signaling, etc.

Rehydration was discussed in the early days: https://groups.google.com/g/discuss-webrtc/c/La_6xw4UaAA It never got implemented by anyone though. It does not play nicely with all the timers and nats involved.

for an unreliable channel, ie datagram, all it needs is to reestablish a heartbeat to repopulate the NAT entry, right?
