Building webrtc native on Ubuntu

I am having a hard time building webrtc-native on ubuntu. The Build instructions for webrtc are wayward and poor. I am following https://webrtc.org/native-code/development/.

Figured that I need to install the depot tools and run fetch v8. Then I did gclient sync. Did apt-get install ninja. Now I am stuck at python webrtc/build/gyp_webrtc. I get the following error

Traceback (most recent call last): File "webrtc/build/gyp_webrtc", line 23, in import gyp_chromium ImportError: No module named gyp_chromium

I badly need help here. Also, it seems that the community doesn't care much about helping to build native apps using webrtc. The focus is on upstream/Web APIs.

Please check https://github.com/HefnySco/node-webrtc-native

I hade very hard time. I used build-webrtc with some tweaks all listed on the above link.

The linked project goes one step forward and build a node component after building the webrtc lib.

WebRTC recently moved from gyp to gn as the default method to generate ninja files.

You should find the process to get started easier here: https://webrtc.org/native-code/development/
