Instance Events

Player events are divided into two types: native events from the video (prefixed with video:) and custom events.

Listen for events:

▶ Run Code
js
var art = new Artplayer({
    container: '.artplayer-app',
    url: '/assets/sample/video.mp4',
});

art.on('video:canplay', () => {
    console.info('video:canplay');
});

Listen for an event only once:

▶ Run Code
js
var art = new Artplayer({
    container: '.artplayer-app',
    url: '/assets/sample/video.mp4',
});

art.once('video:canplay', () => {
    console.info('video:canplay');
});

Manually trigger an event:

▶ Run Code
js
var art = new Artplayer({
    container: '.artplayer-app',
    url: '/assets/sample/video.mp4',
});

art.emit('focus');

Remove an event:

▶ Run Code
js
var art = new Artplayer({
    container: '.artplayer-app',
    url: '/assets/sample/video.mp4',
});

const onReady = () => {
    console.info('ready');
    art.off('ready', onReady);
}

art.on('ready', onReady);
