SIP.js just for messaging?

[bad...@gmail.com]

Hi,

Just stumbled upon SIP.js when looking for examples och setting up chats with WebRTC. I want to be able to send my messages to a list of users via WebRTC but I'm not interested on audio/video. I'm not familiar with SIP before.

Would you still recommend me to try to use SIP.js for this or is it out of scope for my use case?

Thanks

You can use sip.js to just send a message.  See https://sipjs.com/guides/send-message/

Ah, didn't realize I could use SIP.UA instead of SIP.WebRTC.Simple.
So my guess is that messages are not send directly between users with WebRTC but via the server?

You can use simple as well. https://sipjs.com/api/0.8.0/simple/#messagedestination-message

But yes the connection is not direct between the users. You could set up a data-channel, but that is a rarely used use case for SIP.js, so I removed the guides for that.

Alright. Do you have any old document somewhere that maybe i could look at?

The Session Description Handler would yield it all useless for setting up a data channel. You need to create your own session description handler and have it create a data-channel.
