Basic Usage

import { createPlayer } from "@blindcast/player"

const videoEl = document.getElementById("video") as HTMLVideoElement

const result = createPlayer(videoEl, {
  keyServerUrl: "https://keys.example.com/keys",
})

if (!result.ok) {
  console.error(result.error.code, result.error.message)
  return
}

const player = result.value

player.load("https://cdn.example.com/content/my-video/manifest.m3u8")

const unsub = player.on("ready", ({ levels }) => {
  console.log(`Ready — ${levels} quality levels`)
})

player.on("playing", () => console.log("Playing"))
player.on("paused", () => console.log("Paused"))
player.on("buffering", () => console.log("Buffering..."))
player.on("ended", () => console.log("Ended"))

player.on("keyLoaded", ({ contentId, epoch }) => {
  console.log(`Key loaded for ${contentId}, epoch ${epoch ?? "none"}`)
})

player.on("qualitySwitch", ({ fromLevel, toLevel }) => {
  console.log(`Quality: ${fromLevel} → ${toLevel}`)
})

player.on("error", (err) => {
  console.error(`[${err.code}] ${err.message}`)
})

player.on("destroyed", () => {
  console.log("Player destroyed")
})

// Remove a specific listener
unsub()

const m = player.getMetrics()

console.log(`TTFF: ${m.timeToFirstFrame}ms`)
console.log(`Decrypt avg: ${m.avgDecryptTime}ms`)
console.log(`Fragments loaded: ${m.fragmentsLoaded}`)
console.log(`Stalls: ${m.stallCount}`)

player.destroy()
// Stops playback, detaches hls.js, clears the key cache, emits "destroyed"
