LibSourcey is a collection of cross platform C++14 modules and classes that provide developers with an arsenal for rapidly developing high performance network based p2p and media streaming applications. Think of it as the power and performance of `libuv` combined with the features of `FFmpeg`, `OpenCV` and `WebRTC`, all integrated with the ease and readability of the `stl` (C++ Standard Library).

* **Repository**: [https://github.com/sourcey/libsourcey](https://github.com/sourcey/libsourcey)
* **Licence**: [LGPL-2.1+](/LICENSE.md)
## Basic features
* **Event-based IO** — Core modules are built on top of `libuv` (the underlying C library that powers `nodejs`) and use event-based asynchronous IO throughout to maximize performance and minimize concurrency reliance for building mission critical native and server side apps.
* **Cross platform** — The codebase is cross platform and should compile on any system with access to a modern C++14 compiler.
* **Modular libraries** — Libraries are modular for easy integration into your existing projects, so you can just "include what you need" without incurring extra incumbent bloat.
* **Well tested** — Core modules are well tested with unit tests and stress tested daily in production.
* **Clean and readable code** — Modern C++ design principles have been adhered to throughout for clean and readable code.
* **Easy packaging and installation** — LibSourcey can be compiled and installed on most platforms with `CMake`. For straight forward distribution and integration with existing projects the libraries be also packaged as a `deb`, `rpm`, `tar.gz`, `zip`, and more formats with a [single command](https://sourcey.com/libsourcey/installation#building-packages).
* **Docker images** — Semantically versioned images are available on [Docker Hub](https://hub.docker.com/r/sourcey/libsourcey/). Just type `docker pull sourcey/libsourcey` to grab the latest.
* **Solid networking layer** — At the core of LibSourcey is a solid and blazing fast networking layer build on `libuv` and `openssl` primitives, with TCP, SSL and UDP socket implementations.
* **Web servers and clients** — A HTTP stack is provided that includes servers, clients, WebSockets, media streaming, file transfers, and authentication. The HTTP parser is based on the super-fast C code used by `nginx`.
* **Media streaming and encoding** — The `av` library consists of thin wrappers around `FFmpeg` and `OpenCV` for media capture, encoding, recording, streaming, analysis and more.
* **Realtime messaging** — LibSourcey aims to bridge the gap between desktop, mobile and web by providing performance oriented messaging solutions that work across all platforms.
* **Socket.IO** — Socket.IO C++ client that supports the latest protocol revision 4 (>= 1.0). Read more about [Socket.IO](http://socket.io).
* **Symple** — Sourcey's home grown realtime messaging protocol that works over the top of Socket.IO to provide rostering, presence and many other features necessary for building online games and chat applications. [More about Symple](https://sourcey.com/symple).
* **WebRTC support** — WebRTC native support allows you to build p2p desktop and server side applications that inherit LibSourcey's realtime messaging and media capabilities. Take a look at the [examples](https://sourcey.com/libsourcey/examples/) for how to stream live webcam and microphone streams to the browser, and also how to record live WebRTC streams on the server side.
## Getting started
See the [installation guides](https://sourcey.com/libsourcey/installation) in the docs to get started playing with LibSourcey.
## A few examples
What better way to get acquainted with a new library then with some tasty code examples.
#### HTTP echo server
Lets start with the classic HTTP echo server, which looks something like this:
~~~cpp
http::Server srv{ "127.0.0.1", 1337 };
srv.Connection += [](http::ServerConnection::Ptr conn) {
conn->Payload += [](http::ServerConnection& conn, const MutableBuffer& buffer) {
conn.send(bufferCast(buffer), buffer.size());
conn.close();
};
};
srv.start();
~~~
Pretty neat right? Its crazy fast too, especially on Linux kernel 3.9 or newer where its optimized to use of kernel level multicore socket load balancing. Don't take our word for it though, here are some benchmarks using `wrk`:
**LibSourcey `httpechoserver`**
~~~bash
$ wrk -d10s --timeout 2s http://localhost:1337
Running 10s test @ http://localhost:1337
2 threads and 10 connections
Thread Stats Avg Stdev Max +/- Stdev
Latency 265.76us 472.62us 12.42ms 97.51%
Req/Sec 18.84k 1.26k 21.57k 74.50%
375060 requests in 10.01s, 20.39MB read
Requests/sec: 37461.50
Transfer/sec: 2.04MB
~~~
**Nodejs echo server**
~~~bash
$ wrk -d10s --timeout 2s http://localhost:1337
Running 10s test @ http://localhost:1337
2 threads and 10 connections
Thread Stats Avg Stdev Max +/- Stdev
Latency 502.70us 715.11us 14.83ms 97.90%
Req/Sec 11.69k 1.46k 14.52k 70.50%
232667 requests in 10.01s, 21.97MB read
Requests/sec: 23236.33
Transfer/sec: 2.19MB

As you can see the `httpechoserver` is almost twice as fast as the dead simple `nodejs` echo server, which is not a bad performance gain over one of the web's leading technologies thats touted for it's performance. Check the `httpechoserver` sample for the full code, including the `nodejs` echo server we used for benchmarking.
#### Processes
Interacting with system processes and piping IO doesn't have to be painful.
The following code will run the `ping sourcey.com` and with `stdio` and exit callbacks:
~~~cpp
Process proc{ "ping", "sourcey.com" };
proc.onstdout = [](std::string line)
{
// handle process output
};
proc.onexit = [](std::int64_t status)
{
// handle process exit
};
proc.spawn();
// write some random data to the stdin pipe
proc.in() << "random data"
~~~
#### Packet Stream
A good starting point for learning LibSourcey is the `PacketStream`, which lets you create a dynamic delegate chain for piping, processing and outputting arbitrary data packets. This method of layering packet processors and makes it possible to develop complex data processing applications on the fly.
For example, the code below captures a live webcam stream, encodes it into H.264, and then finally broadcasts it in realtime over the internet:
~~~cpp
// Create a PacketStream to pass packets from the
// input device captures -> encoder -> socket
PacketStream stream;
// Setup the encoder options
av::EncoderOptions options;
options.oformat = av::Format{"MP4", "mp4",
{ "H.264", "libx264", 640, 480, 25, 48000, 128000, "yuv420p" },
{ "AAC", "aac", 2, 44100, 64000, "fltp" }};
// Create a device manager instance to enumerate system devices
av::DeviceManager devman;
av::Device device;
// Create and attach the default video capture
av::VideoCapture::Ptr video;
if (devman.getDefaultCamera(device)) {
video.open(device.id, 640, 480);
video.getEncoderFormat(options.iformat);
stream.attachSource(video, true);
}
// Create and attach the default audio capture
av::AudioCapture::Ptr audio;
if (devman.getDefaultMicrophone(device)) {
audio.open(device.id, 2, 44100);
audio.getEncoderFormat(options.iformat);
stream.attachSource(audio, true);
}
// Create and attach the multiplex encoder
av::MultiplexPacketEncoder::Ptr encoder(options);
stream.attach(encoder);
// Attach the output net::Socket instance (instantiated elsewhere)
// to broadcast encoded packets over the network
stream.attach(socket);
// Start the stream
// This method call will start the device captures and begin
// pumping encoded media into the output socket
stream.start();
