o-video
Creates a video player and attaches analytics. Also supports pre roll ads.
Usage
Check out how to include Origami components in your project to get started with o-video
.
Markup
<div class="o-video" data-o-component="o-video"></div>
Videos can be styled in three different sizes, namely 'small', 'medium' and 'large', which can be added to the element as class modifiers, e.g.
<div class="o-video o-video--large" data-o-component="o-video"></div>
Sass
In order to output every size and attribute of o-video
, you'll need to include the following:
@import '@financial-times/o-video/main';
@include oVideo();
You can be more selective about which sizes and attributes you would like to output, by using an $opts
map. It accepts the following lists:
attributes
'ads'
'info'
'placeholder'
sizes
'small'
'medium'
'large'
@import '@financial-times/o-video';
@include oVideo($opts:(
'attributes': ('ads'),
'sizes': ('small', 'large')
))
// outputs small and large video styles, and styling support for ads
JavaScript
In order to initialise o-video
, you will need the following:
import Video from '@financial-times/o-video';
const opts = {
id: 4165329773001,
optimumwidth: 710,
placeholder: true,
classes: ['video'],
