Usage

Ready to use <Plyr /> component

The simplest form of react integration with the plyr is to use the <Plyr /> component, it is best for the static videos.

import Plyr from "plyr-react"
import "plyr-react/plyr.css"

const plyrProps = {
  source: undefined, // https://github.com/sampotts/plyr#the-source-setter
  options: undefined, // https://github.com/sampotts/plyr#options
  // Direct props for inner video tag (mdn.io/video)
}

function MyPlyrVideo() {
  return <Plyr {...plyrProps} />
}

- import "plyr-react/plyr.css"
+ import "plyr-react/dist/plyr.css"

Ready to use usePlyr hook

If you need the full control over all if possible integration one can imagine, usePlyr is your hook. Here is a simple and exact Plyr component made with the usePlyr hook. Are curios about how it works follow this thread and this proposal.

const Plyr = React.forwardRef((props, ref) => {
  const { source, options = null, ...rest } = props
  const raptorRef = usePlyr(ref, {
    source,
    options,
  })
  return <video ref={raptorRef} className="plyr-react plyr" {...rest} />
})

Accessing the plyr instance using refs

// Function base component
const MyComponent = () => {
  const ref = useRef()

  useEffect(() => {
    console.log("internal plyr instance:", ref.current.plyr)
  })

  return <Plyr ref={ref} />
}

// Class base component
class MyComponent extends Component {
  constructor(props) {
    super(props)
    this.player = createRef()
  }

  componentDidMount() {
    console.log("internal plyr instance", this.player.current.plyr)
  }

  render() {
    return <Plyr ref={(player) => (this.player.current = player)} />
  }
}

API:

Currently the exported APIs contains a latest instance of plyr.
In other words, the passing ref will have access to the player in the structure shown below.

return <Plyr ref={ref} />

// ref can get access to latest plyr instance with `ref.current.plyr`
ref = { current: { plyr } }

// so you can make your player fullscreen 🎉
ref.current.plyr.fullscreen.enter()
