|

## Use Webamp in your own project
|
||||
## Add Webamp to Your Site
|
||||
|
||||
Its possible to use Webamp as a media player on your own website. In fact, the [Internet Archive](https://archive.org/) offers it as an optional player for all of their archived audio tracks. [Read more](https://blog.archive.org/2018/10/02/dont-click-on-the-llama/).
|
||||
Here is the **most minimal** example of adding Webamp to a page:
|
||||
|
||||
For examples of how to add Webamp to your projects, check out out [`examples/` directory](./examples).
|
||||
```HTML
|
||||
<div id="app"></div>
|
||||
<script src="https://unpkg.com/webamp"></script>
|
||||
<script>new Webamp().renderWhenReady(app);</script>
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
See the [usage documentation](./packages/webamp/docs/usage.md) for more detailed information.
|
||||
For more examples, including how to add audio files, check out [`examples/` directory](./examples) and the [API documentation](./packages/webamp/docs/usage.md).

|
||||
## About This Repository
|
||||
|
||||
This repository contains a number of different things:
|
||||
Webamp uses a [monorepo](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monorepo) approach, so in addition to the Webamp NPM module, this repository contains code for a few closely related projects and some pieces of Webamp which are published as standalone modules:
|
||||
|
||||
1. `packages/webamp`: The code for the [Webamp NPM module](https://www.npmjs.com/package/webamp)
|
||||
2. `packages/webamp/demo`: The code for the demo site which lives at [webamp.org](https://webamp.org), see the next section for more details
|
||||
3. `examples`: A few small examples showing how to use the NPM module
|
||||
4. `packages/*`: A few small projects that are either related to Webamp, or may some day be a part of Webamp
|
||||
|
||||
## About the Demo Site
|
||||
|
||||
The demo site, [webamp.org](https://webamp.org), uses the same interface as the NPM module but adds the following functionality by utilizing Webamp's public API
|
||||
|
||||
- Error reporting using [Sentry](https://sentry.io)
|
||||
- Analytics using [Google Analytics](https://analytics.google.com/analytics/web/)
|
||||
- Updating document's title to reflect the currently playing track
|
||||
- [Media Session API](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Media_Session_API) integration
|
||||
|
||||
Additionally, it makes use of some private Webamp APIs to add the following functionality:
|
||||
|
||||
- [Butterchun](https://github.com/jberg/butterchurn) integration to render [MilkDrop](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MilkDrop) visualizations. We intend to make this part of the public API soon.
|
||||
- "Screenshot" mode `https://webamp.org/?screenshot=1` which can be used together with [Puppeteer](https://github.com/GoogleChrome/puppeteer) to automate the generation of Winamp skin screenshots
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
## Development
|
||||
|
||||
I do most development by starting the demo site in dev mode and iterating that way. The following commands will install all dependencies, run an initial development build and then start a local server. Every time you save a file, it will rebuild the bundle and automatically refresh the page.
|
||||
|
||||
# Clone the repo
|
||||
cd webamp
|
||||
# __Note:__ Please use yarn over npm, since yarn will respect our `yarn.lock` file
|
||||
yarn install
|
||||
yarn start
|
||||
|
||||
`http://localhost:8080/` should automatically open in your browser.
|
||||
|
||||
# Run tests and lint checks
|
||||
yarn test
|
||||
|
||||
## Building the demo site (webamp.org)
|
||||
|
||||
To do an optimized build of the demo site, you can run:
|
||||
|
||||
yarn run build
|
||||
|
||||
If you wish to test this build locally, run:
|
||||
|
||||
yarn run serve
|
||||
|
||||
Then open the local ip/port that is output to the console in your browser.
|
||||
|
||||
## Building the NPM module
|
||||
|
||||
The NPM module is built separately from the demo site. To build it run:
|
||||
|
||||
yarn run build-library
|
||||
|
||||
This will write files to `./built`.
|
||||
|
||||
## Testing
|
||||
|
||||
yarn test
|
||||
|
||||
This will run the tests the linter and the type checker.
|
||||
|
||||
To update snapshots run
|
||||
|
||||
yarn test -u
|
||||
|
||||
## Deploying the Demo Site
|
||||
|
||||
[Netlify](https://www.netlify.com/) watches GitHub for new versions of master. When a new version is seen, it is automatically built using `npm run build` and pushed to the server. Additionally, Netlify will run a build on every pull request and include a link under the heading "Deploy preview ready!". This enables easy high level testing of pull requests.
|
||||
|
||||
In short, deploying should be as simple as pushing a commit to master.
|
||||
|
||||
Additionally, if you want to fork the project, deploying should be as simple as setting up a free Netlify account.
|
||||
|
||||
### Advanced Usage
|
||||
|
||||
There are some "feature flags" which you can manipulate by passing a specially crafted URL hash. Simply supply a JSON blob after the `#` of the URL to change these settings:
|
||||
|
||||
- `skinUrl` (string) Url of the default skin to use. Note, this file must be served with the correct Allows Origin header.
|
||||
- `audioUrl` (string) Url of the default audio file to use. Note, this file must be served with the correct Allows Origin header.
|
||||
- `initialState` (object) Override the [initial Redux state](packages/webamp/js/reducers/index.ts). Values from this object will be recursively merged into the actual default state.
|
||||
|
||||
