react-native-mediaplayer

Simple full screen media player for React Native.

Installation

Install using npm with npm install --save react-native-mediaplayer. React Native >=0.4.0 is needed.

1. Using Xcode open the project navigator, right click and choose Libraries ➜ Add Files to [your project's name]
2. Go to node_modules ➜ react-native-mediaplayer and add RNMediaPlayer.h and RNMediaPlayer.m

Usage

var React = require('react-native');
var MediaPlayer = require('react-native-mediaplayer');
 
MediaPlayer.open({uri: 'filename.ext'});

The best use case is to add it with onPress to load a video when the user taps on an item.

Other notes

Only supports iOS 8.0 and later due to AVPlayerViewController usage. File extensions must be specified due to media types at the moment.
