INDEX

METHODS

addChild( child, [options] )

    }
  }
});

enableTouchActivity()

Report user touch activity when touch events occur

User activity is used to determine when controls should show/hide. It's relatively simple when it comes to mouse events, because any mouse event should show the controls. So we capture mouse events that bubble up to the player and report activity when that happens.

With touch events it isn't as easy. We can't rely on touch events at the player level, because a tap (touchstart + touchend) on the video itself on mobile devices is meant to turn controls off (and on). User activity is checked asynchronously, so what could happen is a tap event on the video turns the controls off, then the touchend event bubbles up to the player, which if it reported user activity, would turn the controls right back on. (We also don't want to completely block touch events from bubbling up)

Also a touchmove, touch+hold, and anything other than a tap is not supposed to turn the controls back on on a mobile device.

Here we're setting the default component behavior to report user activity whenever touch events happen, and this can be turned off by components that want touch events to act differently.

getChild( name )

Returns a child component with the provided name

PARAMETERS:
  • name
RETURNS:
  • vjs.Component

inherited from: src/js/component.js#L315

getChildById( id )

Returns a child component with the provided ID

PARAMETERS:
  • id
RETURNS:
  • vjs.Component

inherited from: src/js/component.js#L298

height( [num], [skipListeners] )

Get or set the height of the component (CSS values)

Setting the video tag dimension values only works with values in pixels. Percent values will not work. Some percents can be used, but width()/height() will return the number + %, not the actual computed width/height.

PARAMETERS:
  • num Number|String (OPTIONAL) New component height
  • skipListeners Boolean (OPTIONAL) Skip the resize event trigger
RETURNS:
  • vjs.Component This component, when setting the height
  • Number|String The height, when getting

inherited from: src/js/component.js#L733

hide()

Hide the component element if currently showing

RETURNS:
  • vjs.Component

inherited from: src/js/component.js#L663

id()

Get the component's ID

var id = myComponent.id();
RETURNS:
  • String

inherited from: src/js/component.js#L243

init( player, options, ready )

the constructor function for the class

PARAMETERS:
  • player
  • options
  • ready

defined in: src/js/button.js#L15

initChildren()

Add and initialize default child components from options

// when an instance of MyComponent is created, all children in options
// will be added to the instance by their name strings and options
MyComponent.prototype.options_.children = {
  myChildComponent: {
    myChildOption: true
  }
}

inherited from: src/js/component.js#L443

name()

Get the component's name. The name is often used to reference the component.

var name = myComponent.name();
RETURNS:
  • String

inherited from: src/js/component.js#L262

off( [type], [fn] )

Remove an event listener from the component's element

myComponent.off("eventName", myFunc);
PARAMETERS:
  • type String (OPTIONAL) Event type. Without type it will remove all listeners.
  • fn Function (OPTIONAL) Event listener. Without fn it will remove all listeners for a type.
RETURNS:
  • vjs.Component

inherited from: src/js/component.js#L514

on( type, fn )

Add an event listener to this component's element

var myFunc = function(){
  var myPlayer = this;
  // Do something when the event is fired
};

myPlayer.on("eventName", myFunc);

The context will be the component.

PARAMETERS:
  • type String The event type e.g. 'click'
  • fn Function The event listener
RETURNS:
  • vjs.Component self

inherited from: src/js/component.js#L500

one( type, fn )

Add an event listener to be triggered only once and then removed

PARAMETERS:
  • type String Event type
  • fn Function Event listener
RETURNS:
  • vjs.Component

inherited from: src/js/component.js#L526

options( obj )

Deep merge of options objects

Whenever a property is an object on both options objects the two properties will be merged using vjs.obj.deepMerge.

This is used for merging options for child components. We want it to be easy to override individual options on a child component without having to rewrite all the other default options.

Parent.prototype.options_ = {
  children: {
    'childOne': { 'foo': 'bar', 'asdf': 'fdsa' },
    'childTwo': {},
    'childThree': {}
  }
}
newOptions = {
  children: {
    'childOne': { 'foo': 'baz', 'abc': '123' }
    'childTwo': null,
    'childFour': {}
  }
}

this.options(newOptions);

RESULT

{
  children: {
    'childOne': { 'foo': 'baz', 'asdf': 'fdsa', 'abc': '123' },
    'childTwo': null, // Disabled. Won't be initialized.
    'childThree': {},
    'childFour': {}
  }
}
PARAMETERS:
  • obj Object Object of new option values
RETURNS:
  • Object A NEW object of this.options_ and obj merged

width( [num], skipListeners )
