RTCIceTransport: gatheringstatechange event
A gatheringstatechange event is sent to an RTCIceTransport when its ICE candidate gathering state changes.
The gathering state, whose actual status can be found in the transport object's gatheringState property, indicates whether or not the ICE agent has begun gathering candidates, and if so, if it has finished doing so.
The key difference between gatheringstatechange and icegatheringstatechange is that the latter represents the overall state of the connection including every RTCIceTransport used by every RTCRtpSender and every RTCRtpReceiver on the entire connection. In contrast, gatheringstatechange represents changes to the candidate gathering state for a single transport.
This event is not cancelable and does not bubble.
Syntax
Use the event name in methods like addEventListener(), or set an event handler property.
addEventListener('gatheringstatechange', event => { });
ongatheringstatechange = event => { };
Event type
A generic Event.
Examples
This example creates a handler for gatheringstatechange events on each RTCRtpSender associated with a given RTCPeerConnection. Here, the addEventListener() method is called to add a listener for gatheringstatechange events:
pc.getSenders().forEach(sender => {
sender.transport.iceTransport.addEventListener("gatheringstatechange", ev => {
let transport = ev.target;
if (transport.gatheringState === "complete") {
/* this transport has finished gathering candidates,
but others may still be working on it */
}
}, false);
Likewise, you can use the ongatheringstatechange event handler property:
pc.getSenders().forEach(sender => {
sender.transport.iceTransport.ongatheringstatechange = ev => {
let transport = ev.target;
if (transport.gatheringState === "complete") {
/* this transport has finished gathering candidates,
but others may still be working on it */
}
};
});
