The localDescription
read-only property of the RTCPeerConnection
interface returns an RTCSessionDescription
describing the session for the local end of the connection. If it has not yet been set, this is null
.
On a more fundamental level, the returned value is the value of RTCPeerConnection.pendingLocalDescription
if that property isn't null
; otherwise, the value of RTCPeerConnection.currentLocalDescription
is returned. See Pending and current descriptions in the WebRTC Connectivity page for details on this algorithm and why it's used.
This example looks at the localDescription
and displays an alert containing the RTCSessionDescription
object's type
and sdp
fields.
const pc = new RTCPeerConnection();
// â¦
const sd = pc.localDescription;
if (sd) {
alert(`Local session: type='${sd.type}'; sdp description='${sd.sdp}'`);
} else {
alert("No local session yet.");
}
