React Player: Creating Pop-Up Modals for Playing Videos with Next.JS 13 #6

Are you looking to integrate a video player into your Next.JS 13 web application? Do you want to create pop-up modals for playing videos without navigating away from the current page? If so, then React Player is the perfect solution for you.

What is React Player?

React Player is a flexible and easy-to-use video player component for React applications. It supports various video formats and provides a range of customization options, making it an ideal choice for displaying videos in web applications.

Creating Pop-Up Modals with Next.JS 13

With the release of Next.JS 13, it is now easier than ever to create pop-up modals for playing videos. Next.JS provides built-in support for modals, allowing you to easily display video content in a pop-up window without navigating away from the current page.

Integration with React Player

To integrate React Player with Next.JS 13, you can simply import the React Player component and use it within your Next.JS page or component. You can then create a modal window and use the React Player component to display the video content within the modal.

Example Code

    
      import React, { useState } from 'react';
      import ReactPlayer from 'react-player';

      function VideoModal() {
        const [isOpen, setIsOpen] = useState(false);

        const openModal = () => setIsOpen(true);
        const closeModal = () => setIsOpen(false);

        return (
          

            Open Video
            {isOpen && (
              

                

                  Close
                  
                
              
            )}
          
        );
      }

      export default VideoModal;
    
  

In the example code above, we have created a VideoModal component that contains a button to open the modal and display the video using React Player. When the button is clicked, the modal is displayed with the video content, and the user can close the modal by clicking the close button.

Conclusion

By using React Player and Next.JS 13, you can easily create pop-up modals for playing videos in your web application. This provides a seamless and user-friendly experience for displaying video content without navigating away from the current page.
