Usage (Support IB and code)
Set status bar color
Please add the View controller-based status bar appearance field in info.plist and change it to NO
IB usage
Direct drag IB to UIView, the aspect ratio for the 16:9 constraint (priority to 750, lower than the 1000 line), the code section only needs to achieve. See more detail on the demo.
swiftimport BMPlayer player.playWithURL(URL(string: url)!) player.backBlock = { [unowned self] (isFullScreen) in if isFullScreen == true { return } let _ = self.navigationController?.popViewController(animated: true) }
Code implementation by SnapKit
swiftimport BMPlayer player = BMPlayer() view.addSubview(player) player.snp.makeConstraints { (make) in make.top.equalTo(self.view).offset(20) make.left.right.equalTo(self.view) // Note here, the aspect ratio 16:9 priority is lower than 1000 on the line, because the 4S iPhone aspect ratio is not 16:9 make.height.equalTo(player.snp.width).multipliedBy(9.0/16.0).priority(750) } // Back button event player.backBlock = { [unowned self] (isFullScreen) in if isFullScreen == true { return } let _ = self.navigationController?.popViewController(animated: true) }
Set video url
swiftlet asset = BMPlayerResource(url: URL(string: "http://baobab.wdjcdn.com/14525705791193.mp4")!, name: "风格互换:原来你我相爱") player.setVideo(resource: asset)
multi-definition video with cover
swiftlet res0 = BMPlayerResourceDefinition(url: URL(string: "http://baobab.wdjcdn.com/1457162012752491010143.mp4")!, definition: "高清") let res1 = BMPlayerResourceDefinition(url: URL(string: "http://baobab.wdjcdn.com/1457162012752491010143.mp4")!, definition: "标清") let asset = BMPlayerResource(name: "周末号外丨中国第一高楼", definitions: [res0, res1], cover: URL(string: "http://img.wdjimg.com/image/video/447f973848167ee5e44b67c8d4df9839_0_0.jpeg")) player.setVideo(resource: asset)
Add HTTP header for request
swiftlet header = ["User-Agent":"BMPlayer"] let options = ["AVURLAssetHTTPHeaderFieldsKey":header] let definition = BMPlayerResourceDefinition(url: URL(string: "http://baobab.wdjcdn.com/1457162012752491010143.mp4")!, definition: "高清", options: options) let asset = BMPlayerResource(name: "Video Name", definitions: [definition])
Listening to player state changes
See more detail from the Example project
Block
swift//Listen to when the player is playing or stopped player?.playStateDidChange = { (isPlaying: Bool) in print("playStateDidChange \(isPlaying)") } //Listen to when the play time changes player?.playTimeDidChange = { (currentTime: TimeInterval, totalTime: TimeInterval) in print("playTimeDidChange currentTime: \(currentTime) totalTime: \(totalTime)") }
Delegate
swiftprotocol BMPlayerDelegate { func bmPlayer(player: BMPlayer ,playerStateDidChange state: BMPlayerState) { } func bmPlayer(player: BMPlayer ,loadedTimeDidChange loadedDuration: TimeInterval, totalDuration: TimeInterval) { } func bmPlayer(player: BMPlayer ,playTimeDidChange currentTime : TimeInterval, totalTime: TimeInterval) { } func bmPlayer(player: BMPlayer ,playerIsPlaying playing: Bool) { } }
Customize player
Needs to change before the player alloc.
swift// should print log, default false BMPlayerConf.allowLog = false // should auto play, default true BMPlayerConf.shouldAutoPlay = true // main tint color, default whiteColor BMPlayerConf.tintColor = UIColor.whiteColor() // options to show header view (which include the back button, title and definition change button) , default .Always,options: .Always, .HorizantalOnly and .None BMPlayerConf.topBarShowInCase = .Always // loader type, see detail:https://github.com/ninjaprox/NVActivityIndicatorView BMPlayerConf.loaderType = NVActivityIndicatorType.BallRotateChase // enable setting the brightness by touch gesture in the player BMPlayerConf.enableBrightnessGestures = true // enable setting the volume by touch gesture in the player BMPlayerConf.enableVolumeGestures = true // enable setting the playtime by touch gesture in the player BMPlayerConf.enablePlaytimeGestures = true
Advanced Customize
