gatsby-video

A basic video component that consumes gatsby-transformer-ffmpeg locally hosted videos.

Install

npm install --save gatsby-video gatsby-transformer-ffmpeg gatsby-plugin-ffmpeg

How to use

// In your gatsby-config.js
module.exports = {
  plugins: [`gatsby-transformer-ffmpeg`],
}

Create a pageQuery or static query to grab the video you’re interested in.

export const pageQuery = graphql`
  {
    file(relativePath: { eq: "features/arc-init.mov" }) {
      childVideoFfmpeg {
        webm: transcode(
          outputOptions: ["-crf 20", "-b:v 0"]
          maxWidth: 900
          maxHeight: 480
          fileExtension: "webm"
          codec: "libvpx-vp9"
        ) {
          width
          src
          presentationMaxWidth
          presentationMaxHeight
          originalName
          height
          fileExtension
          aspectRatio
        }
        mp4: transcode(
          maxWidth: 900
          maxHeight: 480
          fileExtension: "mp4"
          codec: "libx264"
        ) {
          width
          src
          presentationMaxWidth
          presentationMaxHeight
          originalName
          height
          fileExtension
          aspectRatio
        }
      }
    }
  }
`

Grab the data in your component and then pass it to the video component.


import { Video } from 'gatsby-video'
import poster_image from './poster.png'

const MainPageVideo = props => {
  const videos = props.data.file.childVideoFfmpeg

  return (
    <Video
      poster={poster_image}
      autoPlay
      muted
      loop
      sources={[videos.webm, videos.mp4]}
    />
  )
}

Thanks

The video and aspect ratio components are based on these:
