This document describes how to make use of the noVNC JavaScript library for integration in your own VNC client application. If you wish to embed the more complete noVNC application with its included user interface then please see our embedding documentation.
The API of noVNC consists of a single object called RFB
. The formal
documentation for that object can be found in our API documentation.
noVNC includes a small example application called vnc_lite.html
. This does
not make use of all the features of noVNC, but is a good start to see how to
do things.
noVNC is written using ECMAScript 6 modules. This is not supported by older versions of Node.js. To use noVNC with those older versions of Node.js the library must first be converted.
Fortunately noVNC includes a script to handle this conversion. Please follow the following steps:
- Install Node.js
- Run
npm install
in the noVNC directory
The result of the conversion is available in the lib/
directory.
