How to pass variable from a parent window to Brightcove player HTML?
0
This is the example code that I have on my page
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en" dir="ltr">
<script src="https://www.netapp.com/us/static/js/jquery-1.8.1.min.js"></script>
<body>
<p>
<button class="bcls-button" onclick="playVideo()">Play Video</button>
<button class="bcls-button" onclick="pauseVideo()">Pause Video</button>
</p>
<div class="n-container">
<div class="n-row">
<div class="n-col-md-12">
<h2>Advanced (non-iFrame):</strong></h2>
<iframe src="//players.brightcove.net/260701648001/FcmqUildl_default/index.html?videoId=5448507890001" allowfullscreen="" webkitallowfullscreen="" mozallowfullscreen="" style="width: 640px; height: 360px;"></iframe>
</div></div></div>
<script>
var cid = "12345";
var theProtocol = location.protocol,
theURL = theProtocol + "//players.brightcove.net",
// Get a reference to the iframe element
iframeTag = document.querySelector("iframe"),
// Retrieve window object needed for postMessage
win = iframeTag.contentWindow;
console.log('theURL:', theURL);
console.log('win:', win);
function playVideo() {
// Post message passing 'playVideo' as the data
win.postMessage(cid, theURL);
}
function pauseVideo() {
// Post message passing 'pauseVideo' as the data
win.postMessage("pauseVideo", theURL);
}
</script>
</body>
</html>
The plugin code is added in the Brightcove player as per this reference https://support.brightcove.com/brightcove-player-sample-playpause-video-iframe-parent
videojs.registerPlugin('listenForParent', function() {
var myPlayer = this;
// This method called when postMessage sends data into the iframe
function controlVideo(evt){
console.log("evt.data" + evt.data)
};
// Listen for the message, then call controlVideo() method when received
window.addEventListener("message",controlVideo);
});
This works fine when i click on the PlayVideo. I need to make this work on load. If i call the function PlayVideo on document ready it gives error saying Failed to execute 'postMessage' on 'DOMWindow': The target origin provided ('http://players.brightcove.net') does not match the recipient window's origin ('http://localhost').
Any idea?

You’ll presumably have to wait until the plugin initialization is done, or at least until the iframe content is done loading.
