Ziggeo's React component v2

(For documentation on v1, see here)

For older versions which are not supporting hooks (react version < 16.8.0) please use versions react-ziggeo older versions 4.0.0.

We have a demo project here for you to clone.

Upgrade Ziggeo SDK

This package build based only on stable version of Ziggeo-JS-SDK, but you can easily upgrade to the latest Ziggeo SDK version. Steps require to do:

• Edit root package.json file by upgrading to the latest version of ziggeo-client-sdk (Ziggeo JS SDK Github Url);
• Run npm install or npm update (yarn install if you're using Yarn) to install/update packages;
• Run npm run build command to re-build package;
• Optional step. To install package in your own local project, after you complete steps above you can run npm pack which will generate a new package in the root folder with the .tgz extension. Then in your own project you can replace react-ziggeo package number with path to the generated pack. For example instead of react-ziggeo: "4.x.x" you can use react-ziggeo: "path_to_the/package/react-ziggeo-version_number.tgz"

Video Recorder

    // after react-ziggeo 4.0.0 version hooks are applied, but class Component also supportis
    // Correct way to access to recorder/player instance is:
    const [recorder, setRecorder] = useState(null);

    useEffect(() => {
        if (recorder) {
            // DO stuff here
            recorder.on("any_event", function (rec) { ... }, recorder);
            recorder.get("attribute_name");
        }
    }, [recorder]);
   
    // Embedding (player/recorder instance) will be the first argument
    const handleRecorderRecording = (embedding) => {
        console.log('Recorder onRecording');
    };

    const handleRecorderUploading = (embedding) => {
        console.log('Recorder uploading');

    <ZiggeoRecorder
        apiKey={apiToken}

        apiKey={apiToken}
        video={videoToken}
        onRef={ref => (this.child = ref)}

Adding Localization

locale={'locale_short_code'} Or you can change any text with your locale:

    mediaLocales={[
        {
            register: {"ba-videorecorder-chooser.record-video": "Rec"}, // Any object you want to touch
            languages: ['de', 'it'], // Optional, any languages where changes are required to be affected
            priority: 10 // Optional, default is 10.
        },
    ]}

Trigger Instance Update

below example use the recorder, but the same is true also for the player

const [recorder, setRecorder] = useState(null);
const [updateInstance, setUpdateInstance] = useState(false);

// Whenever you want to get a new instance of Ziggeo recorder, after any changes you made
// Use as a loading approach when complete with getting new instanse set updateInstance as false, setUpdateInstance(false)
useEffect(() => {
    if (recorder) {
        // Should be a new instance
        setUpdateInstance(false);
    }
}, [recorder]);

// You can handle getting with new instance
const handleSomeAction = () => {
    if (recorder) { 
      // Whenever we will set as true, we will get a new recorder instance
      setUpdateInstance(true);
    }
}

//.....
<ZiggeoRecorder
 {/* Your other settings */}
  updateInstance={updateInstance}
  onRef={e => setRecorder(e)}
  onVerified={handleSomeAction}
/>

Component Options

    preventReRenderOnUpdate={boolean} // default is true

Notes

By default, components prevent re-rendering the UI with the option preventReRenderOnUpdate, to overwrite this.

    <ZiggeoRecorder
        preventReRenderOnUpdate={false}
    />
