Usage
Play Video
// init
self.player = VGPlayer(URL: url)
// or
self.player.replaceVideo(url)
Custom player view
- Subclass VGPlayerView
- Alloc VGPlaye when set up
let playeView = VGCustomPlayerView()
self.player = VGPlayer(playerView: playeView)
// customPlayerView
class VGCustomPlayerView: VGPlayerView {
var playRate: Float = 1.0
var rateButton = UIButton(type: .custom)
override func configurationUI() {
super.configurationUI()
self.topView.backgroundColor = #colorLiteral(red: 0, green: 0, blue: 0, alpha: 0.09701412671)
self.bottomView.backgroundColor = #colorLiteral(red: 0, green: 0, blue: 0, alpha: 0.09701412671)
self.topView.addSubview(rateButton)
rateButton.snp.makeConstraints { (make) in
make.left.equalTo(titleLabel.snp.right).offset(10)
make.centerY.equalTo(closeButton)
}
rateButton.tintColor = #colorLiteral(red: 1, green: 1, blue: 1, alpha: 1)
rateButton.setTitle("x1.0", for: .normal)
rateButton.titleLabel?.font = UIFont.boldSystemFont(ofSize: 12.0)
rateButton.addTarget(self, action: #selector(onRateButton), for: .touchUpInside)
rateButton.isHidden = false
}
// .....more
AutoLayout use SnapKit
self.player.replaceVideo(url)
view.addSubview(self.player.displayView)
self.player.play()
self.player.backgroundMode = .proceed
self.player.delegate = self
self.player.displayView.delegate = self
self.player.displayView.titleLabel.text = "China NO.1"
self.player.displayView.snp.makeConstraints { [weak self] (make) in
guard let strongSelf = self else { return }
make.top.left.right.equalToSuperview()
make.height.equalTo(strongSelf.view.snp.width).multipliedBy(3.0/4.0) // you can 9.0/16.0
}
Media Cache (Reference: VIMediaCache)
-
VGPlayer Cache Reference VIMediaCache implementation.
-
AVAssetResourceLoader to control AVPlayer download media data.

Usage:
// Settings maxCacheSize
VGPlayerCacheManager.shared.cacheConfig.maxCacheSize = 160000000
// Setting maxCacheAge default one weak
VGPlayerCacheManager.shared.cacheConfig.maxCacheAge = 60 * 60 * 24 * 7
// clean all cache
VGPlayerCacheManager.shared.cleanAllCache()
// clean old disk cache.
// This is an async operation.
VGPlayerCacheManager.shared.cleanOldFiles { }
Background playback
- Project setting

- AppDelegate settings
func application(_ application: UIApplication, didFinishLaunchingWithOptions launchOptions: [UIApplicationLaunchOptionsKey: Any]?) -> Bool {
// Override point for customization after application launch.

Delegate methods optional
// player delegate
// play state
func vgPlayer(_ player: VGPlayer, stateDidChange state: VGPlayerState)
// playe Duration
func vgPlayer(_ player: VGPlayer, playerDurationDidChange currentDuration: TimeInterval, totalDuration: TimeInterval)
// buffer state
func vgPlayer(_ player: VGPlayer, bufferStateDidChange state: VGPlayerBufferstate)
// buffered Duration
func vgPlayer(_ player: VGPlayer, bufferedDidChange bufferedDuration: TimeInterval, totalDuration: TimeInterval)
// play error
func vgPlayer(_ player: VGPlayer, playerFailed error: VGPlayerError)
// player view delegate
/// fullscreen
func vgPlayerView(_ playerView: VGPlayerView, willFullscreen fullscreen: Bool)
/// close play view
