Usage

npm install --save @squarespace/video-background-rendering

import { VideoBackground as VideoBackgroundRenderer } from '@squarespaces/video-background-rendering';
const config = {
  container: document.documentElement.querySelector('#myContainer'),
  url: 'https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IWBcS6sDIDM'
};
const myVideoBackground = new VideoBackgroundRenderer(config);

Using ES6

If you prefer to handle transpiling and polyfilling on your own, you can import ES6 from Video Background Rendering:

import controller from '@squarespace/video-background-rendering/src';

Alternately, Video Background Rendering specifies a module property in package.json that points to the uncompiled src/index.js, so you may be able to simply import @squarespace/video-background-rendering if you're using one of the following bundlers:

• Webpack 2
• Rollup

Reference

new VideoBackgroundRenderer(config)

Params

• config Object - Config object
• config.container HTMLElement or string - the element or CSS selector for the element which will contain the video background
• config.url string - YouTube or Vimeo video url
• config.fitMode string - Behaves similarly to the CSS property object-fit, where fill is analogous to cover, and fit appears like contain
• config.useCustomFallbackImage boolean - If true the renderer will display an image if the user agent is unable to display or autoplay the chosen video. The container element must have a child image with the class custom-fallback-image

VideoBackgroundRenderer.destroy()

Unbind all listeners, removes state-related classes, clears all timers.
