The problem: My laptop is not powerful enough to actually do video livestreaming.

It is powerful enough to take screenshots every 20 seconds or so.

This app accepts screenshot uploads via an API and shows the last 10 uploaded screenshots.

You will need ruby-2.1.0 and node installed before.

git clone git@github.com:phansch/screenshot-streamer.git && cd screenshot-streamer
bundle install
npm install

rerun 'rackup'

grunt jasmine

Before you can post screenshots, you will need to setup the credentials.

Create a .env file with the credentials you want:

LOGIN=a_username
PASS=a_password

curl -v -F "data=@sc2.png"  http://localhost:9292/screenshot/whatever.png -u username:password
                  ^                             ^                                     ^
          the file to upload            filename on server              replace with your credentials
