videojs-freewheel-ads

Plugin for ads through the Freewheel network

Introduction

The Freewheel Plugin for Video.js provides a videojs wrapper around the provided AdManager.js functionality from Freewheel

Features

Easily integrate the Freewheel AdManager SDK into the videojs ecosystem as a plugin.

Requirements

AdManager.js loaded into global scope (https://mssl.fwmrm.net/libs/adm/[version]/AdManager.js). This plugin was written using version 6.35.0
VideoJS Contrib Ads

Installation

npm install --save videojs-freewheel-ads

Usage

To include videojs-freewheel-ads on your website or web application, use any of the following methods.

`<script>` Tag

This is the simplest case. Get the script in whatever way you prefer and include the plugin after you include video.js, so that the videojs global is available.

<script src='https://mssl.fwmrm.net/libs/adm/6.35.0/AdManager.js'></script>
<script src="//path/to/video.min.js"></script>
<script src="//path/to/videojs-freewheel-ads.min.js"></script>
<script src="//path/to/videojs-freewheel-ads.css"></script>
<script>
  var player = videojs('my-video');

  player.freewheelAds();
</script>

Browserify/CommonJS

When using with Browserify, install videojs-freewheel-ads via npm and require the plugin as you would any other module.

var videojs = require('video.js');
var ads = require('videojs-contrib-ads');
// The actual plugin function is exported by this module, but it is also
// attached to the `Player.prototype`; so, there is no need to assign it
// to a variable.
require('videojs-freewheel-ads');

var player = videojs('my-video');

player.freewheelAds();

RequireJS/AMD

When using with RequireJS (or another AMD library), get the script in whatever way you prefer and require the plugin as you normally would:

require(['video.js', 'videojs-contrib-ads', 'videojs-freewheel-ads'], function(videojs) {
  var player = videojs('my-video');

  var options = {
    networkId: '12345',
    profileId: '12345:profile_id',
    serverURL: 'https://5fd74.v.fwmrm.net/ad/g/1',
    siteSectionId: 'videojs_freewheel_ads',
    videoAssetId: 'videoAssetId',
    videoDuration: 455
  }

  player.freewheelAds();
});
