I am trying to share a file over WebRTC but after some time it stops, and log RTCDatachannel send queue is full

let file = fileUpload.files[0];
let offset = 0;
let chunkSize = 1024*1024*16;


file.arrayBuffer().then((buffer) => {
            
 while(buffer.byteLength){
                
       const chunk = buffer.slice(0, chunkSize);
       buffer = buffer.slice(chunkSize, buffer.byteLength);
      dataChannel.send(chunk);
  }
})

it works fine for small files but stops with big size files.

A DataChannel has a bufferedAmount property which tells you how many bytes are still waiting to be sent. It also has a property called bufferedAmountLowThreshold.

The RTCDataChannel property bufferedAmountLowThreshold is used to specify the number of bytes of buffered outgoing data that is considered "low."

https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/RTCDataChannel/bufferedAmountLowThreshold https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/RTCDataChannel/bufferedAmount

You could keep sending data as normal as long as bufferedAmount is below bufferedAmountLowThreshold. Once it is larger you stop queuing more data until you receive a bufferedamountlow event.

const send = () => {
  while (buffer.byteLength) {
    if (dataChannel.bufferedAmount > dataChannel.bufferedAmountLowThreshold) {
      dataChannel.onbufferedamountlow = () => {
        dataChannel.onbufferedamountlow = null;
        send();
      };
      return;
    }
    const chunk = buffer.slice(0, chunkSize);
    buffer = buffer.slice(chunkSize, buffer.byteLength);
    dataChannel.send(chunk);
  }
};
send();
