🎬 KMPPlayer — Kotlin Multiplatform Media Player

KMPPlayer is a Kotlin Multiplatform media playback library that delivers a unified, reactive interface to control media playback across Android and iOS platforms. Internally, it leverages ExoPlayer on Android and AVPlayer on iOS, while exposing a clean Kotlin API usable from shared code and Jetpack Compose.

✨ Features

• 🧩 Unified playback interface (KMPPlayerState)
• 📁 Supports local files & remote media URLs
• 🎮 Built-in media controls: play, pause, stop, loop, seek
• 📡 Reactive StateFlow-based event stream (KMPPlayerEvent)
• 🎚 Volume & playback speed control
• 📍 Position & duration tracking
• 🎨 Jetpack Compose support (KMPPlayer)
• ⚙️ Access native players: ExoPlayer (Android), AVPlayer (iOS)
• 🧼 Proper resource cleanup with destroy()

📦 Installation

1. Add Maven Repository

Published to Maven Central:

repositories {
    mavenCentral()
}

2. Add the Dependency

For Kotlin Multiplatform (shared code):

kotlin {
    sourceSets {
        commonMain.dependencies  {
           implementation("io.github.rufenkhokhar:KMP-Player:+")
        }
    }
}

Or for Android-only usage:

dependencies {
    implementation("io.github.rufenkhokhar:KMP-Player:+")
}

⚡ Quick Start (Jetpack Compose)

val playerState = rememberKMPPlayerState()

KMPPlayer(
    state = playerState,
    showControls = true,
    modifier = Modifier
        .fillMaxSize()
        .background(Color.Black)
)

LaunchedEffect(Unit) {
    // Load media
    playerState.setFileUrl("https://www.sample-videos.com/video321/mp4/360/big_buck_bunny_360p_20mb.mp4")

    // Configure playback
    playerState.setVolume(0.8f)          // 80% volume
    playerState.setPlaybackSpeed(1.25f)  // 1.25x speed
    playerState.setVideoLoop(true)       // enable looping

    // Start playback
    playerState.play()

    // Observe playback events
    playerState.observePlayerEvent().collect { event ->
        when (event) {
            is KMPPlayerEvent.Playing -> {
                println("Playing: ${event.currentPosition} / ${event.duration}")
            }
            KMPPlayerEvent.Paused    -> println("Paused")
            KMPPlayerEvent.Stop      -> println("Stopped")
            KMPPlayerEvent.Buffering -> println("Buffering…")
            KMPPlayerEvent.Ideal     -> println("Idle")
            KMPPlayerEvent.Ended     -> println("Playback ended")
            is KMPPlayerEvent.Error  -> println("Error: ${event.message}")
        }
    }
}

🧩 API Reference

🔧 KMPPlayerState

@ExperimentalMultiplatform
interface KMPPlayerState {
    fun play()
    fun stop()
    fun pause()
    fun isPlaying(): Boolean

    fun setLocalFile(absolutePath: String)
    fun setFileUrl(url: String)
    fun setVideoLoop(loop: Boolean)

    fun observePlayerEvent(): StateFlow<KMPPlayerEvent>
    fun getPlatformPlayer(): Any?
    fun destroy()

    fun setVolume(volume: Float)
    fun getVolume(): Float

    fun setPlaybackSpeed(speed: Float)

    fun getCurrentPosition(): Long
    fun getDuration(): Long
    fun seekTo(position: Long)
}

📡 KMPPlayerEvent

sealed interface KMPPlayerEvent {
    data class Playing(
        val currentPosition: Long = 0L,
        val duration: Long = 0L
    ) : KMPPlayerEvent

    data object Paused : KMPPlayerEvent
    data object Stop : KMPPlayerEvent
    data object Buffering : KMPPlayerEvent
    data object Ideal : KMPPlayerEvent
    data object Ended : KMPPlayerEvent

    data class Error(val message: String) : KMPPlayerEvent
}

💡 Tips

• Use setVideoLoop(true) for infinite looping
• Use setVolume(0.0f–1.0f) to control playback volume
• Use setPlaybackSpeed(speed) to adjust playback rate
• Use getCurrentPosition() + getDuration() for progress tracking
• Use seekTo(ms) to scrub or skip
• Always call destroy() to release player resources when not in use
• For advanced control, use getPlatformPlayer() and cast to native types
