# Clappr Chromecast Plugin

A [Clappr](https://github.com/clappr/clappr) plugin that adds Chromecast support on Chrome browser. As with all apps running on Chromecast it requires the [Google Cast extension](https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/google-cast/boadgeojelhgndaghljhdicfkmllpafd) installed on the browser.

Please notice it's still not production ready, as it lacks a way to select tracks (audio, subtitles), as well as display media information.

## Usage

```html
<html>
  <head>
    <script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/clappr@latest/dist/clappr.min.js"></script>
    <script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/clappr-chromecast-plugin@latest/dist/clappr-chromecast-plugin.min.js"></script>
  </head>

<body>
    <div id="player"></div>
    <script>
      var player = new Clappr.Player({
        source: '//clappr.io/highline.mp4',
        plugins: [ChromecastPlugin],
        parentId: '#player',
        chromecast: {
          appId: '9DFB77C0',
          contentType: 'video/mp4',
          media: {
            type: ChromecastPlugin.Movie,
            title: 'Awesome Hot Air Balloon Slackline',
            subtitle: 'You won\'t get much closer to Skylining than this!'
          },
          customData: {
            licenseURL: 'http://widevine/yourLicenseServer'
          }
        }
      });
    </script>
  </body>
</html>
```

There's also a [demo page](https://clappr.github.io/clappr-chromecast-plugin).
