Installation

npm install --save videojs-seek-buttons

Options

• forward - if a number greater than 0, a seek forward button will be added which seeks that number of seconds
• back - if a number greater than 0, a seek back button will be added which seeks that number of seconds

Usage

To include videojs-seek-buttons on your website or web application, use any of the following methods to include the script.

You also need to include the plugin's CSS.

<script> Tag

This is the simplest case. Get the script in whatever way you prefer and include the plugin after you include video.js, so that the videojs global is available.

<link rel="stylesheet" href="//path/to/videojs-seek-buttons.css">
<script src="//path/to/video.min.js"></script>
<script src="//path/to/videojs-seek-buttons.min.js"></script>
<script>
  var player = videojs('my-video');
 
  player.seekButtons({
    forward: 30,
    back: 10
  });
 
 
// You could alternatively include the plugin in the setup options, e.g.
// var player = videojs('my-video', {
//   plugins: {
//     seekButtons: {
//       forward: 30,
//       back: 10
//     }
//   }
// });
 
</script> 

The dist versions will be available from services which host npm packages such as jsdelivr:

• https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/videojs-seek-buttons/dist/videojs-seek-buttons.min.js
• https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/videojs-seek-buttons/dist/videojs-seek-buttons.css

Browserify/CommonJS

When using with Browserify, install videojs-seek-buttons via npm and require the plugin as you would any other module.

var videojs = require('video.js');
 
// The actual plugin function is exported by this module, but it is also
// attached to the `Player.prototype`; so, there is no need to assign it
// to a variable.
require('videojs-seek-buttons');
 
var player = videojs('my-video');
 
player.seekButtons({
    forward: 30,
    back: 10
  });

RequireJS/AMD

When using with RequireJS (or another AMD library), get the script in whatever way you prefer and require the plugin as you normally would:

require(['video.js', 'videojs-seek-buttons'], function(videojs) {
  var player = videojs('my-video');
 
  player.seekButtons({
    forward: 30,
    back: 10
  });
});
