PlayKit JS DASH adapter integrates [Shaka Player] with the [PlayKit JS Player].

PlayKit JS DASH is written in [ECMAScript6], statically analysed using [Flow] and transpiled in ECMAScript5 using [Babel].

## Getting Started

### Prerequisites

The adapter requires [PlayKit JS Player] to be loaded first.

The adapter uses the [Shaka Player] javascript library.

[playkit js player]: https://github.com/kaltura/playkit-js

### Installing

First, clone and run [yarn] to install dependencies:

[yarn]: https://yarnpkg.com/lang/en/

```
git clone https://github.com/kaltura/playkit-js-dash.git
cd playkit-js-dash
yarn install
```

### Building

Then, build the player

```javascript
yarn run build
```

### Embed the library in your test page

Finally, add the bundle as a script tag in your page, and initialize the player

```html
<script type="text/javascript" src="/PATH/TO/FILE/playkit.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="/PATH/TO/FILE/playkit-dash.js"></script>
<div id="player-placeholder" style="height:360px; width:640px">
  <script type="text/javascript">
    var playerContainer = document.querySelector("#player-placeholder");
    var config = {...};
    var player = playkit.core.loadPlayer(config);
    playerContainer.appendChild(player.getView());
    player.play();
  </script>
</div>
```

## Configuration

[Shaka Player] configuration options, documented @[Shaka Player API docs], can be passed via the [PlayKit JS Player] config.

The configuration is exposed via the playback section:

```javascript
{
  playback: {
    options: {
      html5: {
        dash: {
          // Shaka Player configuration options here
        }
      }
    }
  }
}
```

## Running the tests

Tests can be run locally via [Karma], which will run on Chrome, Firefox and Safari

[karma]: https://karma-runner.github.io/1.0/index.html

```
yarn run test
```

You can test individual browsers:

```
yarn run test:chrome
yarn run test:firefox
yarn run test:safari
```

### And coding style tests

We use ESLint [recommended set](http://eslint.org/docs/rules/) with some additions for enforcing [Flow] types and other rules.

See [ESLint config](.eslintrc.json) for full configuration.

We also use [.editorconfig](.editorconfig) to maintain consistent coding styles and settings, please make sure you comply with the styling.
