Installation

Temporary until published

npm install kevireilly/videojs-casting

This plugin isn't published just yet

npm install --save videojs-casting

Usage

To include videojs-casting on your website or web application, use any of the following methods.

<script> Tag

For now, you'd need to npm run build and use the assets out of the dist, cjs, or es directories.

This is the simplest case. Get the script in whatever way you prefer and include the plugin after you include video.js, so that the videojs global is available.

<script src="//path/to/video.min.js"></script>
<script src="//path/to/videojs-casting.min.js"></script>
<link href="//path/to/videojs-casting.css" rel="stylesheet">
<script>
  var player = videojs('my-video');
  player.casting();
</script>

Browserify/CommonJS

When using with Browserify, install videojs-casting via npm and require the plugin as you would any other module.

var videojs = require('video.js');

// The actual plugin function is exported by this module, but it is also
// attached to the `Player.prototype`; so, there is no need to assign it
// to a variable.
require('videojs-casting');
var player = videojs('my-video');
player.casting();

RequireJS/AMD

When using with RequireJS (or another AMD library), get the script in whatever way you prefer and require the plugin as you normally would:

require(['video.js', 'videojs-casting'], function(videojs) {
  var player = videojs('my-video');
  player.casting();
});

Try it

To try AirPlay on a demo video page:

git clone https://github.com/kevireilly/videojs-casting.git
cd videojs-casting
npm install
npm start

Navigate to http:1.2.3.4:9999 on your AirPlay capable device or browser (Safari).
