Httplive NPM | npm.io

Introduction

When the MSE technology is accepted by most of browser, front-end developers can do much more multimedia things. And now, more than 80% browser has supported it. In China, X5, the largest market share of the kernel, will support it in early 2018. httplive achieves live stream playback of httpflv protocol depending on MSE. Based on the loaders idea, it decouples and encapsulates modules in httpflv, like HttpChunked, MuxController, MSEController. If you want to customize you owner player, you just need to simply follow the relevant standards. And this is the main idea:

httplive is not a library, but a standards of front-end live stream playback

Features

Easily

Install

npm install httplive --save

Get Started

import HTTPLive from 'httplive';

let video = document.getElementById('videoTag');

let flv = new HTTPLive({
  video
});

video.addEventListener('canplaythrough',()=>{
  video.play();
},false);

flv.send('https://xxx.flv');

If you want to use custom modules to replace existing modules, you can simply do like this:

import {CustomPlayer} from 'httplive';
import WebSocketChunked from 'custom';

// Replace HTTPChunked module by WebSocketChunked. 

const HTTPLive = CustomPlayer({
    HTTPChunked: WebSocketChunked
});

let flv = new HTTPLive({
  video
});
...

Later, I will show you about the standard protocols of these modules.
