Pillarbox Web: SrgSsrHotkeys

Add support for keyboard shortcuts to control the player as defined by the SRG SSR.

[!IMPORTANT] Some keyboard shortcuts were not implemented because they are deprecated or conflict with browser shortcuts.

Requirements

To use this component, you need the following installed on your system:

• Node.js

Quick Start

To get started with this component, install it through the following command:

npm install --save @srgssr/pillarbox-web @srgssr/srg-ssr-hotkeys

For instructions on setting up Pillarbox, see the Quick Start guide.

Once the player is installed you can activate the component as follows:

import pillarbox from '@srgssr/pillarbox-web';
import srgSsrHotkeys from '@srgssr/srg-ssr-hotkeys';

const player = pillarbox('my-player', {
  userActions: {
    hotkeys: srgSsrHotkeys,
  },
});

Listen to keyboard shortcuts from the page regardless of whether the player has focus or not:

import pillarbox from '@srgssr/pillarbox-web';
import { HotkeysHelper } from '@srgssr/srg-ssr-hotkeys';

const keydown = (event) => {
  player.userActive(true);

  HotkeysHelper.handle(player, event);
};
document.body.addEventListener('keydown', keydown);

Setting up a development server

Start the development server:

npm run start

This will start the server on http://localhost:4200. Open this URL in your browser to view the demo page.

The video player (player) and the Pillarbox library (pillarbox) are exposed on the window object, making it easy to access and manipulate from the browser's developer console for debugging.

Available URL parameters

The demo page supports several URL parameters that modify the behavior of the video player:

• debug: Set this to enable debugging mode.
• ilHost: Specifies the host for the data provider.
• language: Sets the language for the player interface.
• urn: Specifies the URN of the video to load. Default is urn:rts:video:14683290.

You can combine parameters in the URL like so:

http://localhost:4200/?language=fr&urn=urn:rts:video:14318206
