Media Types

The official documentation for available media types is now maintained on the main TimelineJS website.

Extending Media Types

• Create a new class for the media type in source/js/media/type. It's easiest to duplicate an existing one and change the filename and classname.
• Add the new file to the code-kit compile list inside the main TL.Timeline.js file. Code-kit uses the following language to prepend the file to the compile // @codekit-prepend "media/types/TL.Media.YourMediaTypeName.js";
• Add a new object to the media_types array in source/js/media/TL.MediaType.js. Make sure to have the correct class name in cls and use match_str as a regex to help timeline figure out what type of media the given url is.
• If you want icons for the media to show up in the Timeline, then you will also need to add an icon class to source/less/icons/Icons.less that has the name .tl-icon-yourmediatypename.
