Angular directive for custom SoundCloud players jxnblk.com/plangular
npm install plangular-3
Or install with Bower:
bower install plangular
Or use the CDN:
<script src="http://d2v52k3cl9vedd.cloudfront.net/plangular/3.0.1/plangular.min.js"></script>
Include a link to plangular after including Angular.
<script src="//ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/angularjs/1.3.15/angular.min.js"></script>
<script src="bower_components/plangular/dist/plangular.min.js"></script>
<body ng-app="plangular">
</body>
Or include plangular as a dependency in another app:
var app = angular.module('app', ['plangular']);
<div plangular="http://soundcloud.com/jxnblk/plangular">
</div>
<div plangular="http://soundcloud.com/jxnblk/plangular">
<h3>{{track.user.username}} - {{track.title}}</h3>
<a ng-href="{{track.permalink_url}}">View on SoundCloud</a>
</div>
<button ng-click="playPause()">Play/Pause</button>
Or with separate play/pause controls:
<button ng-click="play()">Play</button>
<button ng-click="pause()">Pause</button>
Use the hhmmss
filter to format seconds as hh:mm:ss
strings.
<small>{{ currentTime | hhmmss }} | {{ duration | hhmmss }}</small>
<progress ng-value="currentTime / duration || 0">
{{ currentTime / duration || 0 }}
</progress>
<progress
ng-click="seek($event)"
ng-value="currentTime / duration">
{{ currentTime / duration }}
</progress>
<img ng-src="{{ track.artwork_url }}" alt="{{ track.title }}" />
<img ng-src="{{ track.waveform_url }}" alt="waveform" />
Note: The waveform image that the SoundCloud API provides is a 1200 x 280px PNG with a light gray frame and transparent middle. To show progress use absolute positioning with the waveform in front. The light gray color is #efefef
.
Use the ng-if
directive to show and hide content based on whether the track has loaded.
<div ng-if="!track"><!-- Loading state --></div>
<div ng-if="track"><!-- Player --></div>
Use the tracks
array and ng-repeat
when using a SoundCloud playlist. Pass the $index
to the playPause()
method to trigger playback on a per-track basis. Determine which track is currently playing with player.playing === track.src
.
<ul>
<li ng-repeat="track in tracks">
<button
ng-click="playPause($index)"
ng-class="{'active': player.playing === track.src}">
{{track.user.username}} - {{track.title}}
</button>
</li>
</ul>
To load the most recent tracks from a given user, use the tracks endpoint. Use ng-repeat
to iterate over the tracks
array.
<div plangular="http://soundcloud.com/jxnblk/tracks">
</div>
To load the most recent likes from a given user, use the likes endpoint.
<div plangular="http://soundcloud.com/jxnblk/likes">
</div>
To skip to the next and previous track in a playlist or array of tracks, use the previous()
and next()
methods.
<button ng-click="previous()">Previous</button>
<button ng-click="next()">Next</button>
Plangular works out of the box, but if you want to configure it to use your own Soundcloud client ID, you can modify plangularConfigProvider
in a config block:
.config(function(plangularConfigProvider){
plangularConfigProvider.clientId = '[YOUR-CLIENT-ID]';
})
See more examples and starter templates in docs/examples
