A plugin for clappr which allows a clickable heading to be included inside the player. The heading will be visible when the media is stopped, and whilst playing when the control bar is visible.
Add both Clappr and the heading plugin scripts to your HTML:
<head>
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://cdn.clappr.io/latest/clappr.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="dist/clappr-heading-plugin.js"></script>
</head>
You can also find the project on npm: https://www.npmjs.com/package/clappr-heading-plugin
Then just add ClapprHeadingPlugin
into the list of plugins of your player instance, and the options for the plugin go in the headingPlugin
property as shown below.
var player = new Clappr.Player({
source: "http://your.video/here.mp4",
plugins: {
core: [ClapprHeadingPlugin]
},
headingPlugin: {
text: "Something really interesting",
hyperlink: "http://google.com", // optional, can also be a callback
openInNewWindow: true // optional
}
});
The text
option is the text you want in the heading, hyperlink
is optional and is the page the user should be taken to if they click the heading. If hyperlink
is provided then it will default to opening the hyperlink in the same window, but if you set openInNewWindow
to true
, the browser will navigate to the hyperlink in a new window instead. The media that is playing is automatically paused when the link is clicked.
hyperlink
can also be a callback, and wwhen this is the case the value which is returned is used as the hyperlink.
