Description: A set of GUI controls for the react-native-video component
Author: Nubix
Latest version: 1.0.21

# react-native-video-controls
Controls for the React Native `<Video>` component at [react-native-video](https://github.com/react-native-community/react-native-video). For support with RN 0.45 or lower use version 1.3.1 or lower.

## Features
This package contains a simple set of GUI controls that work with the [react-native-video](https://github.com/react-native-community/react-native-video) `<Video>` component. This includes a back button, volume bar, fullscreen toggle, play/pause toggle, seekbar, title, error handling and timer toggle that can switch between time remaining and current time when tapped.

![How it looks](https://s3-us-west-2.amazonaws.com/nubix.ca/github/example.gif)

By default the `<VideoPlayer>` accepts a navigator property from React's built-in `<Navigator>` which pops the current scene off the stack when tapped. Alternatively you can provide your own onBack prop to the component to override this functionality. You should also provide your own onEnd prop to the component so it knows what to do when a video ends playback.

By default, tapping the screen anywhere will show the player controls. After 10s the controls disappear. Double tapping will toggle fullscreen.

## Installation
Run `npm install --save react-native-video react-native-video-controls`

Then run `react-native link react-native-video`

If you're using RN < 39 run `npm install --save react-native-video-controls@1.0.1`. Note this version includes `react-native-video` as a normal dependency instead of a peer-dependency.

## Usage
The `<VideoPlayer>` component follows the API of the `<Video>` component at [react-native-video](https://github.com/react-native-community/react-native-video). It also takes a number of additional props which are outlined in the [API](#api) section.

For basic operation the `<VideoPlayer>` component requires a video source and a navigator property. The default back button functionality in the component relies on using the built-in `<Navigator>` functionality in React Native and pops the current scene off the stack. This can be overridden if desired, see the [API](#api) for more details.

```javascript
// At the top where our imports are...
import VideoPlayer from 'react-native-video-controls';

// in the component's render() function
<VideoPlayer
    source={{ uri: 'https://vjs.zencdn.net/v/oceans.mp4' }}
    navigator={ this.props.navigator }
/>
```

To play a local file, use require syntax like so:

```js
<VideoPlayer source={ require('path/to/file') } />
```

## API
The `<VideoPlayer>` component can take a number of inputs to customize it as needed. They are outlined below:

### Props
You can pass any of the props that the `<Video />` component at [react-native-video](https://github.com/react-native-community/react-native-video) takes. Simply add them onto the `<VideoPlayer />` and it will pass them through to the `<Video />` component.

In addition, the `<VideoPlayer />` also takes these props:

| Prop                         | Type          | Default | Description                                                                                                                                                         |
| ---------------------------- | ------------- | ------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| toggleResizeModeOnFullscreen | Boolean       | true    | If true, clicking the fullscreen button will toggle the `<Video />` component between cover/contain, set to false if you want to customize fullscreen behaviour     |
| controlTimeout               | Integer       | 15000   | Hide controls after X amount of time in milliseconds                                                                                                                |
| showOnStart                  | Boolean       | true    | Show or hide the controls on first render                                                                                                                           |
| videoStyle                   | StyleSheet    | null    | React Native StyleSheet object that is appended to the `<Video>` component                                                                                          |
| navigator                    | Navigator     | null    | When using the default React Native navigator and do not override the `onBack` function, you'll need to pass the navigator to the VideoPlayer for it to function    |
| seekColor                    | String(#HEX)  | '#FFF'  | Fill/handle colour of the seekbar                                                                                                                                   |
| style                        | StyleSheet    | null    | React Native StyleSheet object that is appended to the video's parent `<View>`                                                                                      |
