Hello there,
I am trying to build a live stream application using WOWZA, but I am facing a problem in finishing/ending/stopping/ deleting the stream.
using the RestAPI’s described in the REST API Documentation I am able for example to retrieve publishers list using the following API:
Note: following APIs written in python-flask application.
URL_RETRIEVE_PUBLISHERS_LIST = "http://{}:{}/v2/servers/{}/vhosts/{}/applications/{}/publishers".format(settings.WSE_IP, settings.WSE_SERVER_PORT, settings.WSE_SERVER_NAME, settings.WSE_VHOST_NAME, settings.WSE_LIVE_APP_NAME)
response = requests.get(URL_RETRIEVE_PUBLISHERS_LIST,auth=(settings.WOWZA_USERNAME, settings.WOWZA_PASSWORD))
I used disconnect stream API to disconnect the stream, as follows:
URL_DISCONNECT_STREAM_WITH_STREAM_KEY = "http://{}:{}/v2/servers/{}/vhosts/{}/applications/{}/instances/{}/incomingstreams/{}/actions/0".format(
settings.WSE_IP, settings.WSE_SERVER_PORT, settings.WSE_SERVER_NAME, settings.WSE_VHOST_NAME,
settings.WSE_LIVE_APP_NAME, instanceName, stream_key)
and got the following response:
<response[200]>: content: b'<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>\n<wmsResponse>\n <success>false</success>\n <message>Unknown action: 0</message>\n</wmsResponse>'
when I change the action in the API to disconnectStream except of “0”: I get <response[404]>
I’ve used as well the http stream control plugin, following is it’s link: how-to-control-stream-class-streams-dynamically-httpstreamcontrol
following is the API used to call the stop_stream action:
URL_DISCONNECT_STREAM_WITH_STREAM_KEY = "http://{}:8086/streamcontrol?appName={}&action=stopStream&streamName={}".format(settings.WSE_IP, settings.WSE_LIVE_APP_NAME, stream_key)
response = requests.get(URL_DISCONNECT_STREAM_WITH_STREAM_KEY, auth=(settings.WOWZA_USERNAME,settings.WOWZA_PASSWORD))
it returns
<response[200]>: content: b'<html><head><title>Wowza Streaming Engine 4 Developer Edition (Expires: Dec 17, 2020) 4.8.5 build20200616153358</title></head><body>Wowza Streaming Engine 4 Developer Edition (Expires: Dec 17, 2020) 4.8.5 build20200616153358</body></html>'
but without ending the specified stream.
my question is : how can I end/finish/stop the stream using an API, so that I can activate the onStreamDestroy/onDisconnect event in my WowzaJavaModule?
All what I need to do is to end the stream so that the events in my WowzaJavaModule start!
any suggestion would be highly appriciated.
thanks in advanced
