<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="node_modules/react-h5-video/lib/react-h5-video.css">
basic usage
import React from "react";
import Video from "react-h5-video";
class MyAewsomeApp extends React.Component{
render(){
var sources = [ "./video/video.mp4","./video/video.webm","./video/video.ogv" ]
return(
<Video sources={sources} poster="./video/poster.png" >
<h3 className="video-logo pull-right"><a href="http://glexe.com" target="_blank">LOGO</a></h3>
<p>Any HTML content</p>
</Video>
)
}
}
##props
Video.propTypes = {
metaDataLoaded: React.PropTypes.func,// video's meta data loaded callback
// properties
sources: React.PropTypes.array,
subtitles: React.PropTypes.array, // [{src:"foo.vtt", label:"English",lang:"en" }]

// here are all some default props
Video.defaultProps = {

###video meta data loaded callback onece the meta data is loaded, you can get the info of this video(width,height,duration...etc), then you can use the returnd api to perform basic actions
The returned api has these properties:
Property | Type | Description |
---|---|---|
$video | DOM Node | the HTML5 video DOM node, you can attatch event listeners to $video |
fullscreen | function | make video enter fullscreen mode |
setTime | function | setTime(number) to change seekbar time |
togglePlay | function | play or pause video |
volume | function | change volumn between 0 to 1.0 |
align="left">registerProgressEventListener | align="left">function | align="left">You can call this function get updates on how much the video has played. |
class App extends React.Component{
loaded(api){
this.videoApi = api;
// console.log( api.$video.duration )
// to toggle play state, just call this.videoApi.togglePlay()
}
render(){
return(
<Video sources={sources} metaDataLoaded={this.loaded}/>
)
}
}
registerProgressEventListener
class App extends React.Component{
loaded(api){
api.registerProgressEventListener((percent) => {
console.log("Video has now played ", percent, " percent")
})
}
render(){
return(
<Video sources={sources} metaDataLoaded={this.loaded}/>
)
}
}
