react-native-video-controls
Controls for the React Native <Video>
component at react-native-video. For support with RN 0.45 or lower use version 1.x.
Features
This package contains a simple set of GUI controls that work with the react-native-video <Video>
component. This includes a back button, volume bar, fullscreen toggle, play/pause toggle, seekbar, title, error handling and timer toggle that can switch between time remaining and current time when tapped.
By default the <VideoPlayer>
accepts a navigator property from React's built-in <Navigator>
which pops the current scene off the stack when tapped. Alternatively you can provide your own onBack prop to the component to override this functionality. You should also provide your own onEnd prop to the component so it knows what to do when a video ends playback.
By default, tapping the screen anywhere will show the player controls. After 10s the controls disappear. Double tapping will toggle fullscreen.
Installation
Run npm install --save react-native-video react-native-video-controls
Then run react-native link react-native-video
If you're using RN < 39 run npm install --save react-native-video-controls@1.0.1
. Note this version includes react-native-video
as a normal dependency instead of a peer-dependency.
Usage
The <VideoPlayer>
component follows the API of the <Video>
component at react-native-video. It also takes a number of additional props which are outlined in the API section.
For basic operation the <VideoPlayer>
component requires a video source and a navigator property. The default back button functionality in the component relies on using the built-in <Navigator>
functionality in React Native and pops the current scene off the stack. This can be overridden if desired, see the API for more details.
import VideoPlayer from 'react-native-video-controls';
<VideoPlayer
source={{ uri: 'https://vjs.zencdn.net/v/oceans.mp4' }}
navigator={ this.props.navigator }
/>
