Zoom Meeting SDK for Linux Headless Bot Sample

This sample demonstrates how you can run the Zoom Meeting SDK for Linux within a Docker container and configure it for a variety of use cases through an intuitive CLI or through a configuration file.

Prerequisites

1. Docker
2. Zoom Account
3. Zoom Meeting SDK Credentials (Instructions below)
   1. Client ID
   2. Client Secret
4. AssemblyAI Key
5. Anthropic Key

1. Clone the Repository

2. Download the Zoom Linux SDK

Download the latest version of the Zoom SDK for Linux from the Zoom Marketplace and place it in the lib/zoomsdk folder of this repository.

3. Configure the Bot

If you don't already have them, follow the section on how to Get your Zoom Meeting SDK Credentials.

Copy the sample config file

cp sample.config.toml config.toml

Fill out the config.toml

Here, you can set any of the CLI options so that the bot has them available when it runs. Start by adding your Client ID and Client Secret in the relevant fields.

At a minimum, you need to provide an Client ID and Client Secret along with information about the meeting you would like to join.

You can either provide a Join URL, or a Meeting ID and Password.

4. Run the Bot

Run the Docker container in order to build and run the bot

docker compose up

That's it! You can use the --help argument in entry.sh to see the available CLI and config.toml options.
