Install Guide

(not tested yet!)

1. npm install --save react-native-video-gstreamer

2. In android/setting.gradle

   ...
   include ':ReactNativeMediaPlayerAndroid', ':app'
   project(':ReactNativeMediaPlayerAndroid').projectDir = new File(rootProject.projectDir, '../node_modules/react-native-video-gstreamer/android')
   

3. In android/app/build.gradle, add ReactNativeMediaPlayerAndroid library project.

   dependencies {
       ....
       compile project(':ReactNativeMediaPlayerAndroid') 
   }
   

4. Register Module in MainAcrivity.java (src/main/java/.../MainActivity.Java)

   ....
   import com.nick.reactnativemediaplayer.MediaPlayerPackage;  //add new package component framework for media player
   import com.nick.devicecontroller.DeviceControllerPackage;  //add new package component framework for device control 
   .....
   
    .addPackage(new MainReactPackage()) //add new React Native Package for media player
    .addPackage(new MediaPlayerPackage()) 
    .addPackage(new DeviceControllerPackage(this)) 
   

5. extract jni libaries 'node_modules/react-native-video-gestreamer/jiniLibs' & copy them (armeabi, armeabi-v7a, ...) into into src/main/jniLibs/
