react-hook-videojs v3.0.2
react-hook-videojs
A simple react hook to easily integrate video.js with React
react-hook-videojs
Due to how video.js mutates the DOM, integrating video.js with React can be a bit tricky. Especially if you want to support video.js component updates and correctly dispose of any old player.
React Hooks helps us package this quite nicely, and all you have to do to use this package is:
import React from "react";
import "video.js/dist/video-js.css";
import { useVideoJS } from "react-hook-videojs";
const App = () => {
const videoUrl = "http://techslides.com/demos/sample-videos/small.mp4";
const className = "my-class";
const { Video, player, ready } = useVideoJS(
{ sources: [{ src: videoUrl }] },
className // optional
);
if (ready) {
// Do something with the video.js player object.
}
return (
<div className="App">
<Video />
</div>
);
};
useVideoJS
takes an options argument, and passes it without modifications to video.js.
You may also provide an optional second string argument that will be appended as class name on the video
DOM node.
See their options reference for further information on the options argument.
Using with Tracks or other child components
This hook now supports using features such as tracks, and other child components of the <video>
element.
Example of using a text track:
const App = () => {
// ...setup code from above
return (
<Video>
<track
kind="captions"
src="//example.com/path/to/captions.vtt"
srclang="en"
label="English"
default
/>
</Video>
);
};
Note: Videojs supports adding <track>
and <sources>
elements programmatically
Support for all <video>
element attributes
This hook supports all attributes for the native <video>
element directly on the <Video>
component.
const App = () => {
return <Video muted autopictureinpicture />;
};
Note: video.js supports many of these (and registration of listeners) through the player options
