Demo site source is at Usage ----- [](#usage) ``` VideoWidget::widget([ 'url' => 'https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N4q2kBe82-o', ]) ``` ### Options [](#options) - `url` - mandatory - `autoPlay` - auto play the video. if using the new IE aka Chromium based browsers - you will most likely end up with muted video. the script will try its best ot play it with sound whenever possible. *JUST DO NOT USE IT, IT IS STUPID IDEA*. - `hideContols` - hides the native provder controls and puts volume and full screen only. genereraly the idea is combined with startTimestamp to make a a non live stream look like a stream. pretty much useless, since average joe can just open dev tools and remove the non touch events, anyway. - `startTimestamp` - when to start it, in Unix timestamp in seconds. Note that the timestamp comes from the server, but the wait is happening on the client browser, so if their's time is off, it will be off. - `startPosition` - from where to start the video, in seconds - `openInModal` - open the video in modal dialog - `loop` - rather pointless thing, but whatever, repeats the video or playlist after it ends. - `placeholderImage` - replaces the thumbnail from the video, in case you want to put your crappy logo to boost your genitals - `placeholderEndImage` - shows it after the video ends. logically if you use loop that will never show..capishe ? combining some options can be nonse, again use common sense. Setup ----- [](#setup) Instalation ----------- [](#instalation) just use composer, ok ? or better just write your own. ``` composer require cacko/yii2-widget-video ``` ### Screenshot persistance [](#screenshot-persistance) the extension stores downloaded thumbnails in the system temp folder. If you want to change, set a dependency of `Cacko\Yii2\Widgets\Video\Models\ScreenshotInterface`. if you don't know how - [RTFM](https://www.yiiframework.com/doc/guide/2.0/en/concept-di-container). ### Controller for captures [](#controller-for-captures) some providers or if you are using mp4 file, do not have api for screeshots, so it is done via the shite way and requires a controller endpoint. it points somewhere now, if you want to change it, same as above , DI -> `Cacko\Yii2\Widgets\Video\Controller\ControllerInterface`..etc ``` Yii::$container->set('Cacko\Yii2\Widgets\Video\Models\ScreenshotInterface', MyJunkPersistanceCrap::class); ``` ### Providers credentials [](#providers-credentials) currently only youtube and twich require credentials, simply set a component definitions in the main app config. ``` 'components' => [ 'youtubeApi' => [ 'class' => 'Cacko\Yii2\Widgets\Video\Components\YouTube\Api', 'youtubeKey' => 'xxxx', ], 'twitchApi' => [ 'class' => 'Cacko\Yii2\Widgets\Video\Components\Twitch\Api', 'clientId' => 'xxx', 'secretId' => 'xxx', ] ``` ### Health Score 27 — LowBetter than 49% of packages Maintenance42 Moderate activity, may be stable Popularity6 Limited adoption so far Community7 Small or concentrated contributor base Maturity44 Maturing project, gaining track record Bus Factor1 Top contributor holds 100% of commits — single point of failure How is this calculated?**Maintenance (25%)** — Last commit recency, latest release date, and issue-to-star ratio.
