Getting Started

These instructions will help you to use this library inside your projects

Prerequisites

This library was built with androidX, so you should migrate into androidX to use this library with out any problem. For migration you can use Migrating to AndroidX

Installing

Step 1. Add the JitPack repository to your build file, Add it in your root build.gradle at the end of repositories:

allprojects {
        repositories {
            maven { url 'https://jitpack.io' }
        }
    }

Step 2. Add the dependency

dependencies {
    implementation 'com.github.HamidrezaAmz:MagicalExoPlayer:X.X.X'
}

Here we go for implementation

Add player view into your XML

<com.potyvideo.library.AndExoPlayerView
        android:id="@+id/andExoPlayerView"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content" />

Refrence to custom-view inside your activity or fragment (I use butterknife), Or you can use findViewById()

 @BindView(R.id.andExoPlayerView)
 AndExoPlayerView andExoPlayerView;

Or

 AndExoPlayerView andExoPlayerView = findViewById(R.id.andExoPlayerView);

Implementation Example

 andExoPlayerView.setSource("URL OR FILE ADDRESS");

        android:id="@+id/andExoPlayerView"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        app:andexo_aspect_ratio="aspect_16_9"
        app:andexo_full_screen="true"
        app:andexo_play_when_ready="true"
        app:andexo_show_controller="true"
        app:andexo_resize_mode="Fit" />

TIP

  • If you wan to support full screen, please add this config into your activity in manifest.xml
android:configChanges="keyboard|keyboardHidden|orientation|screenSize|screenLayout|smallestScreenSize|uiMode"

For example your activity with be something like this

<activity
      android:name=".MainActivity"
      android:configChanges="keyboard|keyboardHidden|orientation|screenSize|screenLayout|smallestScreenSize|uiMode">
      <intent-filter>
          <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />

          <category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
      </intent-filter>
</activity>
  • If you want to pass custom headers over your stream url, you can just pass them as a hashmap like this:
  HashMap<String , String> extraHeaders = new HashMap<>();
  extraHeaders.put("foo","bar");
  andExoPlayerView.setSource("STREAM_URL", extraHeaders);
