Accurate Player Plugins API

Installation

Install with npm. You will need access to our private npm repo.

npm install @accurate-player/accurate-player-core
npm install @accurate-player/accurate-player-progressive
npm install @accurate-player/accurate-player-plugins

Example

For complete example how to get the player running, see accurate-player-demo.

The plugin module contains various plugins that can be registered in the core player.

E.g.

// Create player
player = new ProgressivePlayer();
// Register plugins
hotkeys = new HotkeyPlugin(player);
pointsPlugin = new PointPlugin(player);

Plugins are registered automatically in the player and can be controlled by keeping a reference to the plugin or by accessing it through the player (player.api.plugin[PointsPlugin.Name]).
