# WAI The `wai` command line, and the reference software `wai dev` runs on your own machine. All of it is open source under Apache-2.0, built from the open-standards repository (`wai/quickstart/build.sh`). | File | What it is | |---|---| | `bin/wai` | The command line: `hello`, `create`, `dev`, `verify`, `doctor`, and the envelope tools (`inspect`, `wrap`, `unwrap`, `encode`, `decode` for the mandatory floor, `capabilities`) | | `bin/wai-relay` | The relay a room's media goes through: MOQT over QUIC, WebTransport and WebSocket | | `bin/wai-room` | The room service: a room's keys, its grants, its clock | | `bin/wai-ingest` | The ingest gateway: WHIP, SRT and RTMP into a room, each group signed at the first hop, and WHEP out | | `bin/wai-remote-host` | A remote desktop room's host agent | | `bin/wai-pack` | The packager: a title as WAI objects, HTTP playlists and a MoQ catalog | | `bin/wai-quantum` | The quantum command line: OpenQASM programs run on this machine, the result signed | | `share/wai/web/` | The room client a browser loads: its pages and their WebAssembly | | `share/wai/studio/` | WAI Studio, which `wai dev` serves at `/_wai/` | ## Start ```sh wai hello # WAI's four steps on a sample: name, dispatch, rebuild, receipt wai create my-room --template video-room # a video room in one page cd my-room wai dev # the relay, the room service and your page, on 127.0.0.1:8080 wai verify ../wai-hello # the receipts hello wrote, checked offline ``` `wai create --list` names every template. `wai dev --help` gives its options. Nothing here needs an account, and nothing is sent off your machine. Keep `bin/` and `share/` side by side: `wai dev` finds the relay, the room service, the room client and Studio beside itself. Homebrew and Scoop install `wai-quantum` as a package of its own, which `wai` depends on. ## Check this machine ```sh wai doctor # one check to a line; --json for the same as an envelope ``` says whether this machine can run all of this: this `wai` and what `wai` reaches at a prompt, the relay and the room service and whether they are of this `wai`'s version, each port in the table below, the browsers for Studio and for the browser harnesses, each asked its version and passed only when one runs, and where `wai key` keeps keys and who else may reach them. A check that fails says what to do. One that could not be run reads "not checked" with the reason, which is not a pass, and the last line says which of the three the run came to: passed, failed, or passed with some not checked. It exits 1 when a check failed. It sends nothing off this machine, writes nothing, reads no secret and raises no prompt, so on macOS whether the login keychain is unlocked always reads not checked, and a browser that would open a window to say its version (a WebKit browser, and on Windows any windowed program) is not started and says so. ## Ports What each program listens on by default, on 127.0.0.1. `wai dev` serves everything on one origin and runs its own relay and room service on free ports behind it; the other rows are each daemon's own default, as its example configuration or its source sets it, for running it alone. No two of them share a port, so any of them run side by side. A deployment sets its own. | Port | Program | What | Set by | |---|---|---|---| | 8080 | `wai dev` | your page at `/`, the room service at `/room-api/`, the relay at `/moq`, Studio at `/_wai/` | `--port` | | 4443/udp | `wai-relay` | MOQT over QUIC, and WebTransport | `quic_listen` | | 4480 | `wai-relay` | MOQT over WebSocket | `websocket_listen` | | 9682 | `wai-room` | the room service's HTTP API | `listen` | | 8088 | `wai-ingest` | WHIP and WHEP | `[http] listen` | | 1935 | `wai-ingest` | RTMP | `[rtmp] listen` | | 1936 | `wai-ingest` | RTMPS, off until set | `[rtmp] tls_listen` | | 5167 | `wai-ingest` | SCTE 104 automation, off until set | `[injector] listen` | | 9000/udp | `wai-ingest` | SRT, off until set | `[contrib.srt] listen` | | 9694 | `wai-audit` | the audit collector | `WAI_AUDIT_ADDR` | | 8251 | `wai-ledger` | the receipt ledger | `WAI_LEDGER_ADDR` | | 8252 | `wai-fleet` | the fleet service | `WAI_FLEET_ADDR` | | 8241 | `wai-quantum-service` | the quantum job service | `WAI_QSVC_ADDR` | | 9670 | `wai-world-relay` | the interactive worlds' relay | `WAI_RELAY_BIND` | | 9690 | `wai_stitched_presentation serve` | the stitched presentation verifier | `--listen` | | 8380 | `wai http origin` | an HTTP origin of WAI objects | `--port` | A program that reaches another names that one's port: the room service's `relay_url` is the relay's WebSocket (`ws://127.0.0.1:4480/moq`), and the ingest gateway's `[relay] addr` is the relay's QUIC endpoint (`127.0.0.1:4443`). joule-moq-room's `tests/ports.rs` holds every row to the program that serves it. ## More - The standard and its documentation: https://wai.transaction.science/ - The source: https://git.transaction.science/Transaction-Science/open-standards
