screencapture

Prompt the user to share a screen, window, or tab via the Screen Capture API.

Import: @rtorcato/browser-common/screencapture

📖 MDN: Screen Capture API

getDisplayMedia needs a secure context and throws where unsupported — guard with isScreenCaptureAvailable() first.

Example​

import { isScreenCaptureAvailable, getDisplayMedia } from '@rtorcato/browser-common/screencapture'

if (isScreenCaptureAvailable()) {
  const stream = await getDisplayMedia({ video: true })
}

Exports​

  • isScreenCaptureAvailable() — feature check
  • getDisplayMedia(options?) — prompts the user and resolves to a MediaStream
