HTML

See example

  1. Put the tplayer.js script tag in the <head> of your HTML document.

    <script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/tplayer.js@1.0.7/dist/index.js"></script>
  2. Put the video element in the <body> of your HTML document.

    <video id="tplayer"></video>
  3. Add some JS to the <body> of your HTML document.

    <script>
      window.tplayer(options);
    </script>

NEXTJS

See example

You need to import tplayer.js into a component which will be dynamically imported (No SSR) to your root.

# Install tplayer.js
npm install tplayer.js

// component\player.jsx

import { useRef, useEffect } from "react";
import { tplayer, destroyPlayer } from "tplayer.js";

export default function Player({ config }) {
  const videoRef = useRef();

  useEffect(() => {
    tplayer({
      ...config,
      playerElem: videoRef.current,
    });

    return () => destroyPlayer({ id: config.id });
  }, []);

  return (
    <div>
      <video ref={videoRef}></video>
    </div>
  );
}

// pages\index.jsx

import dynamic from "next/dynamic";
const Player = dynamic(import("../component/player"), { ssr: false });

export default function Home() {
  return <Player config={options} />;
}
