ClientSide:

<script src="dist/webrtmp.js"></script>
<video id="videoElement"></video>
<script>
    const videoElement = document.getElementById('videoElement');
    
    const rtmp_player = webrtmpjs.createWebRTMP();
    
    rtmp_player.attachMediaElement(videoElement);

    rtmp_player.open(document.location.host, 9001).then(()=>{   // Host, Port of WebRTMP Proxy
        rtmp_player.connect("demo").then(()=>{                  // Application name  
            rtmp_player.play("your streanname").then(()=>{      // Stream name
                console.log("playing");
            })
        })
    })
</script>
