HTML5 Canvas camera/viewport - how to actually do it?

I'm sure this was solven 1000 times before: I got a canvas in the size of 960*560 and a room in the size of 5000*3000 of which always only 960*560 should be drawn, depending on where the player is. The player should be always in the middle, but when near to borders - then the best view should be calculated). The player can move entirely free with WASD or the arrow keys. And all objects should move themselves - instead of that i move everything else but the player to create the illusion that the player moves.

I now found those two quesitons:

HTML5 - Creating a viewport for canvas works, but only for this type of game, i can't reproduce the code for mine.

Changing the view "center" of an html5 canvas seems to be more promising and also perfomant, but i only understand it for drawing all other objects correctly relative to the player and not how to scroll the canvas viewport relative to the player, which i want to achieve first of course.

My code (simplified - the game logic is seperately):

var canvas = document.getElementById("game");
canvas.tabIndex = 0;
canvas.focus();
var cc = canvas.getContext("2d");

// Define viewports for scrolling inside the canvas

/* Viewport x position */   view_xview = 0;
/* Viewport y position */   view_yview = 0;
/* Viewport width */        view_wview = 960;
/* Viewport height */       view_hview = 560;
/* Sector width */          room_width = 5000;
/* Sector height */         room_height = 3000;

canvas.width = view_wview;
canvas.height = view_hview;

function draw()
{
    clear();
    requestAnimFrame(draw);

    // World's end and viewport
    if (player.x < 20) player.x = 20;
    if (player.y < 20) player.y = 20;
    if (player.x > room_width-20) player.x = room_width-20
