Videojs - current index as variable

I have a VideoJs player that plays from a playlist.
I want to display which video number is currently playing from the playlist. Since I need the total number of videos anyway to create the playlist, I can use the defined variable there.
e.g. "Video 3 of 10".
For this I try by means of:
var test = player.currentIndex(videoList);
To pass the current number of the video into the variable.
Unfortunately without success.
var lerneinheit = "E1";
var videocounter = 26;
var videonumber= 0;
const videoList = Array.from({ length: videocounter }, (_, i) => {
return { sources: [{ src: `https://www.XXX.de/player/${lerneinheit}_${videonumber + i + 1}.mp4`, type: 'video/mp4' }], };
});
var player = videojs(document.querySelector('video'), {
inactivityTimeout: 0
});
try {
player.volume(1);
} catch (e) {}
player.playlist(videoList);
document.querySelector('.previous').addEventListener('click', function() {
player.playlist.previous();
});
document.querySelector('.next').addEventListener('click', function() {
player.playlist.next();
});
player.playlist.autoadvance(0); // play all
Array.prototype.forEach.call(document.querySelectorAll('[name=autoadvance]'), function(el) {
el.addEventListener('click', function() {
var value = document.querySelector('[name=autoadvance]:checked').value;
//alert(value);
player.playlist.autoadvance(JSON.parse(value));
});
});
/* ADD PREVIOUS */
var Button = videojs.getComponent('Button');
// Extend default
var PrevButton = videojs.extend(Button, {
//constructor: function(player, options) {
constructor: function() {
Button.apply(this, arguments);
//this.addClass('vjs-chapters-button');
this.addClass('icon-angle-left');
this.controlText("Previous");
},
handleClick: function() {
console.log('click');
player.playlist.previous();
}
});
/* ADD BUTTON */
//var Button = videojs.getComponent('Button');
// Extend default
var NextButton = videojs.extend(Button, {
//constructor: function(player, options) {
constructor: function() {
Button.apply(this, arguments);
//this.addClass('vjs-chapters-button');
this.addClass('icon-angle-right');
this.controlText("Next");
},
handleClick: function() {
console.log('click');
player.playlist.next();
}
});
videojs.registerComponent('NextButton', NextButton);
videojs.registerComponent('PrevButton', PrevButton);
player.getChild('controlBar').addChild('PrevButton', {}, 0);
player.getChild('controlBar').addChild('NextButton', {}, 2);
document.getElementById("current").innerHTML = "Von " + videocounter;

Check the API documentation:
player.curtentItem() returns the index of the current item. You'll probably want to increase this by one for display, as it is 0-based. The playlistitem event is triggered when the item has changed.

javascript DOM object (window) extended property is null on page reload after being idle

I have a custom extended property attached to the window object in JavaScript as follows:
Community.js
(function (window, document, $) {
'use strict';
var containerScrollPositionOnHideList = [];
var scrollToTopOnShowContainerList = [];
var userProfileInfo = {};
window.Community = $.extend({
//init
init: function () {
var Site = window.Site;
Site.run();
this.enableHideShowEventTrigger();
},
setUserInfo: function (userObj) {
if (UtilModule.allowDebug) { debugger; }
window.localStorage.setItem('userInfo', JSON.stringify(userObj));
var d = new $.Deferred();
$.when(this.initUserProfile(userObj.UserId)).done(function () {
d.resolve("ok");
});
},
getUserInfo: function () {
var userJson = window.localStorage.getItem('userInfo');
var userObj = JSON.parse(userJson);
return userObj;
},
})(window, document, jQuery);
The problem is that this extension property window.Community is null in certian scenarios when i refresh the page which i am going to describe below along with flow of code.
and here is a module in JavaScript to force reload scripts even if they are cached every time the page is refreshed as my code heavily depends on javascript calls so I just enabled it to make sure while I am still writing the code page reloads every time, the code is below as follows:
Util.js
var UtilModule = (function () {
var allowDebug = false;
var currentVersion = 0;
var properlyLoadScript = function (scriptPath, callBackAfterLoadScript) {
//get the number of `<script>` elements that have the correct `src` attribute
//debugger;
var d = $.Deferred();
$('script').each(function () {
console.log($(this).attr('src'));
});
if (typeof window.Community == 'undefined') {
//debugger;
console.log('community was undefined till this point');
//the flag was not found, so the code has not run
$.when(forceReloadScript(scriptPath)).done(function () {
callBackAfterLoadScript();
d.resolve("ok");
});
}
else {
console.log('Community loaded already and running now : ' + scriptPath);
callBackAfterLoadScript();
}
return d.promise();
};
var forceReloadScript = function (scriptPath) {
if (UtilModule.allowDebug) { debugger; }
var d = $.Deferred();
initCurrentVersion();
var JSLink = scriptPath + "?version=" + currentVersion;
var JSElement = document.createElement('script');
JSElement.src = JSLink;
JSElement.onload = customCallBack;
document.getElementsByTagName('head')[0].appendChild(JSElement);
function customCallBack() {
d.resolve("ok");
}
return d.promise();
};
var enableDebugger = function () {
allowDebug = true;
};
var disableDebugger = function () {
allowDebug = false;
};
var debugBreakPoint = function () {
if (allowDebug) {
}
};
var initCurrentVersion = function () {
if (currentVersion == 0) {
var dt = new Date();
var ttime = dt.getTime();
currentVersion = ttime;
}
};
var getCurrentVersion = function () {
return currentVersion;
};
return {
forceReloadScript,
properlyLoadScript,
enableDebugger,
disableDebugger,
debugBreakPoint,
allowDebug,
getCurrentVersion
};
})();
Note: I have made deferred objects to resolve only when the JSElement.onload has been called successfully. This step was taken just for testing purpose to make sure that I am not missing something before reaching a point to call the method where I am getting an error.
After that the code where I load scripts using UtilModule in my layout file look like as below:
_Layout.cshtml
<script src = "~/Scripts/Application/Modules/Util.js" ></script>
<script>
$.when(
UtilModule.properlyLoadScript('/Scripts/Application/Community.js', () => {
// Community.init() was supposed to be called here but i was still getting the error so i implemented this using promise that is returned from properlyLoadScript and call Community.init() further in .done callback to make sure that script is properly loading till this point.
//window.Community.init();
})
).done(function() {
window.Community.init();
});
</script>
#RenderSection("scripts", required: false)
Now coming to my main file where My index file is executing having (_layout.chsmtl) as parent layout
is
Index.cshtml
#{
ViewBag.Title = "My Blog";
Layout = "~/Views/Shared/_Layout.cshtml";
}
<article id="BlogPage" style="margin: 5px;">
</article>
#section scripts{
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function () {
$.when(UtilModule.properlyLoadScript('/Scripts/Application/Modules/Blog.js', () => {
})).done(function () {
BlogModule.init();
});
});
//});
</script>
}
from what I know is that #section scripts is executed only once all the scripts in the layout page are loaded first so seems like a safe place to initialize the code which is dependent on some script in _Layout.HTML file and further enclosed with $(document).ready() for testing just to make sure that this script loads after everything else is loaded already.
Note: I am running all this code in in-cognito mode in chrome so nothing is cached while this code is running
now my Blog.js file looks like as below
var BlogModule = (function () {
var moduleReference = this;
var PageId = "#BlogPage ";
var currentUser;
var BlogPostList = [];
var blogPostInfo = {};
//init
var init = function () {
if (UtilModule.allowDebug) { debugger; }
//This is where the problem happens
console.log(window.Community);
console.log(window.Community.getUserInfo());
currentUser = window.Community.getUserInfo();
initBlogInformation();
//window.Community.registerModule(BlogModule);
if (Object.keys(window.Community.getUserProfileObject()) <= 0) {
$.when(window.Community.initUserProfile(currentUser.UserId)).then(function () {
$.when(initBlogInformation()).done(function () {
//debugger;
console.log(BlogPostList);
window.WidgetManager.populateWidget(PageId, moduleReference);
loadBlogPostWidget();
loadBlogViewWidget();
loadBlogCommentsWidget();
});
});
}
else {
$.when(initBlogInformation()).done(function () {
window.WidgetManager.populateWidget(PageId, moduleReference);
loadBlogPostWidget();
loadBlogViewWidget();
loadBlogCommentsWidget();
});
}
};
var loadBlogIndexMenuWidget = function () {
if (UtilModule.allowDebug) { debugger; }
};
var loadBlogPostWidget = function () {
var widgetOptions = {};
widgetOptions.type = "BlogPostWidget";
widgetOptions.container = PageId + "#BlogPostWidgetContainer";
var settings = {};
settings.UserId = 1;
widgetOptions.settings = settings;
window.WidgetManager.loadWidget(widgetOptions);
}
var loadBlogViewWidget = function () {
var widgetOptions = {};
widgetOptions.type = "BlogViewWidget";
widgetOptions.container = PageId + "#BlogViewWidgetContainer";
var settings = {};
settings.UserId = 1;
widgetOptions.settings = settings;
window.WidgetManager.loadWidget(widgetOptions);
};
var loadBlogCommentsWidget = function () {
var widgetOptions = {};
widgetOptions.type = "BlogCommentsWidget";
widgetOptions.container = PageId + "#BlogCommentsWidgetContainer";
var settings = {};
settings.UserId = 1;
widgetOptions.settings = settings;
window.WidgetManager.loadWidget(widgetOptions);
};
var initBlogList = function () {
$.when(getBlogPosts()).then(function (results) {
if (UtilModule.allowDebug) { debugger; }
BlogPostList = results.Record;
console.log(BlogPostList);
});
};
var getBlogPosts = function () {
if (UtilModule.allowDebug) { debugger; }
var d = new $.Deferred();
var uri = '/Blog/GetBlogPosts?userId=' + currentUser.UserId;
$.post(uri).done(function (returnData) {
if (UtilModule.allowDebug) { debugger; }
if (returnData.Status == "OK") {
BlogPostList = returnData.Record;
BlogPostList.map(x => {
if (UtilModule.allowDebug) { debugger; }
x.UserName = window.Community.getUserProfileObject().UserName;
if (x.Comments != null) {
x.CommentsObject = JSON.parse(x.Comments);
x.CommentsCount = x.CommentsObject.length;
}
});
console.log(returnData.Record);
d.resolve("ok");
} else {
window.Community.showNotification("Error", returnData.Record, "error");
d.resolve("error");
}
});
return d.promise();
};
var initBlogInformation = function () {
//debugger;
var d = $.Deferred();
getBlogPosts().then(getBlogModelTemplate()).then(function () {
d.resolve("ok");
});
return d.promise();
};
//Get Blog Model
var getBlogModelTemplate = function () {
var d = new $.Deferred();
var uri = '/Blog/GetBlogModel';
$.post(uri).done(function (returnData) {
blogPostInfo = returnData.Record;
d.resolve("ok");
});
return d.promise();
};
return {
init: init,
};
})();
The error I have highlighted below
so the problem is in init function of BlogModule which is BlogModule.init() the page is idle for too long and I reload it I get the following error:
cannot call
window.Community.getUserInfo() of undefined implying that community is undefied
after couple of refreshes its fine and the issue doesn't happen unless I change reasonable portion of code for js files to be recompiled again by browser or the browser is idle for too long and I am not able to understand what is triggering this issue.
below is log from console
p.s. error occurs more repeatedly if i refresh page with f5 but happens rarely if i refresh page with ctrl + f5
Please any help would be of great value

Answering my own question, took a while to figure it out but it was a small mistake on my end just fixing the following function in Util.js fixed it for me
var properlyLoadScript = function(scriptPath, callBackAfterLoadScript) {
//get the number of `<script>` elements that have the correct `src` attribute
//debugger;
var d = $.Deferred();
$('script').each(function() {
console.log($(this).attr('src'));
});
if (typeof window.Community == 'undefined') {
//debugger;
console.log('community was undefined till this point');
//the flag was not found, so the code has not run
$.when(forceReloadScript('/Scripts/Application/Community.js')).done(function() {
//debugger;
$.when(forceReloadScript(scriptPath)).done(function() {
callBackAfterLoadScript();
});
d.resolve("ok");
});
} else {
console.log('Community loaded already and running now : ' + scriptPath);
$.when(forceReloadScript(scriptPath)).done(function() {
callBackAfterLoadScript();
});
}
return d.promise();
};

Data not binding as it should be after calling ajax with knockoutjs

I have this grid that i am creating using knockoutjs, it works perfectly at first, now i am using a window.location.hash to run another query, it works too and query returns the correct amount of data however when i insert it within the observableArray (which gets inserted correctly as well), the grid doesn't update the data and shows the old data... I'm using removeAll() function on the observableArray as well before inserting new set of data but it wont update my grid, i suspect there is something wrong with the DOM?
I should mention when i reload the page (since the page's url keeps the hash for query) my grid shows the data and works perfectly. for some reason it needs to reload the page and doesn't work without,
Here is my JS:
if (!ilia) var ilia = {};
ilia.models = function () {
var self = this;
this.pageCount = ko.observable(0);
//this is the observableArray that i am talking about ++++++++
this.items = ko.observableArray();
var $pagination = null;
var paginationConfig = {
startPage: 1,
totalPages: 20,
onPageClick: function (evt, page) {
self.generateHash({ pageNum: page });
self.getData();
}
}
var hashDefault = {
pageNum: 1,
pageSize: 20,
catId: null,
search: ""
}
this.dataModel = function (_id, _name, _desc, _thumb, _ext) {
var that = this;
this.Id = ko.observable(_id);
this.Name = ko.observable(_name);
this.Desc = ko.observable(_desc);
this.Url = '/site/ModelDetail?id=' + _id;
var b64 = "data:image/" + _ext + ";base64, ";
this.thumb = ko.observable(b64 + _thumb);
}
this.generateHash = function (opt) {
//debugger;
var props = $.extend(hashDefault, opt);
var jso = JSON.stringify(props);
var hash = window.location.hash;
var newHash = window.location.href.replace(hash, "") + "#" + jso;
window.location.href = newHash;
return jso;
}
this.parseHash = function () {
var hash = window.location.hash.replace("#", "");
var data = JSON.parse(hash);
if (data)
data = $.extend(hashDefault, data);
else
data = hashDefault;
return data;
}
var _cntrl = function () {
var _hdnCatName = null;
this.hdnCatName = function () {
if (_hdnCatName == null)
_hdnCatName = $("hdnCatName");
return _hdnCatName();
};
var _grid = null;
this.grid = function () {
if (_grid == null || !_grid)
_grid = $("#grid");
return _grid;
}
this.rowTemplate = function () {
return $($("#rowTemplate").html());
}
}
this.createPagnation = function (pageCount, pageNum) {
$pagination = $('#pagination-models');
if ($pagination && $pagination.length > 0)
if (paginationConfig.totalPages == pageCount) return;
var currentPage = $pagination.twbsPagination('getCurrentPage');
var opts = $.extend(paginationConfig, {
startPage: pageNum > pageCount ? pageCount : pageNum,
totalPages: pageCount,
onPageClick: self.pageChange
});
$pagination.twbsPagination('destroy');
$pagination.twbsPagination(opts);
}
this.pageChange = function (evt, page) {
var hash = self.parseHash();
if (hash.pageNum != page) {
self.generateHash({ pageNum: page });
self.getData();
}
}
this.getData = function () {
var _hash = self.parseHash();
inputObj = {
pageNum: _hash.pageNum,
pageSize: _hash.pageSize,
categoryId: _hash.catId
}
//debugger;
//console.log(_hash);
if (inputObj.categoryId == null) {
ilia.business.models.getAll(inputObj, function (d) {
//debugger;
if (d && d.IsSuccessfull) {
self.pageCount(d.PageCount);
self.items.removeAll();
_.each(d.Result, function (item) {
self.items.push(new self.dataModel(item.ID, item.Name, item.Description, item.Thumb, item.Extention));
});
if (self.pageCount() > 0)
self.createPagnation(self.pageCount(), inputObj.pageNum);
}
});
}
else {
ilia.business.models.getAllByCatId(inputObj, function (d) {
if (d && d.IsSuccessfull) {
self.pageCount(d.PageCount);
self.items.removeAll();
console.log(self.items());
_.each(d.Result, function (item) {
self.items.push(new self.dataModel(item.ID, item.Name, item.Description, item.Thumb, item.Extention));
});
// initializing the paginator
if (self.pageCount() > 0)
self.createPagnation(self.pageCount(), inputObj.pageNum);
//console.log(d.Result);
}
});
}
}
this.cntrl = new _cntrl();
};
And Initialize:
ilia.models.inst = new ilia.models();
$(document).ready(function () {
if (!window.location.hash) {
ilia.models.inst.generateHash();
$(window).on('hashchange', function () {
ilia.models.inst.getData();
});
}
else {
var obj = ilia.models.inst.parseHash();
ilia.models.inst.generateHash(obj);
$(window).on('hashchange', function () {
ilia.models.inst.getData();
});
}
ko.applyBindings(ilia.models.inst, document.getElementById("grid_area"));
//ilia.models.inst.getData();
});

Would perhaps be useful to see the HTML binding here as well.
Are there any console errors? Are you sure the new data received isn't the old data, due to some server-side caching etc?
Anyhow, if not any of those:
Are you using deferred updates? If the array size doesn't change, I've seen KO not being able to track the properties of a nested viewmodel, meaning that if the array size haven't changed then it may very well be that it ignores notifying subscribers. You could solve that with
self.items.removeAll();
ko.tasks.runEarly();
//here's the loop
If the solution above doesn't work, could perhaps observable.valueHasMutated() be of use? https://forums.asp.net/t/2056128.aspx?What+is+the+use+of+valueHasMutated+in+Knockout+js

reaching the btn event outside the revealing patterned applied class

I have an revealing patterned applied class.How can I reach btnMenu event outside of the model
thanks.
MyModel= (function () {
var btnClickEvents = function () {
var btnMenu = $('.btnMenu').on('click', function () {
var date= $(this).attr("data-rezerve-date");
var statu= $(this).attr("data-rezerve-statu");
alert("click"+date+'---'+statu);
});
};
return {
initialize: initialize,
asignValues: asignValues,
getRezervationDateAndStatus: btnClickEvents.btnMenu//how can I reach this function outside of model
};
})();
update
I change my code as u show.and add one return function
MyModel = (function () {
var dt = "";
var statu = "";
var rvalue = {};
var btnClickEvents = function () {
$('.btnMenu').on('click', onBtnMenuClick);
};
function onBtnMenuClick(e) {
dt = $(this).attr("data-rezerve-date");
statu = $(this).attr("data-rezerve-statu");
rvalue.date = dt;
rvalue.statu = statu;
console.log(dt);
}
var getRezervationDateAndStatus = function () {
return rvalue;
};
return {
initialize: initialize,
asignValues: asignValues,
getRezervationDateAndStatus: getRezervationDateAndStatus
};
})();
and after include my module to my web page calling is like this,
MyModel.asignValues(rezervasyonTable,data);
MyModel.initialize();
var result = MyModel.getRezervationDateAndStatus();
console.log(result.date);
bu console log empty.

As you say it is a " revealing" pattern. You could see what you expose. To be able to use this function outside of the module change your code like this:
MyModel = (function () {
var btnClickEvents = function () {
$('.btnMenu').on('click', onBtnMenuClick);
};
function onBtnMenuClick(e) {
var date = $(this).attr("data-rezerve-date");
var statu = $(this).attr("data-rezerve-statu");
alert("click" + date + '---' + statu);
}
return {
initialize: initialize,
asignValues: asignValues,
getRezervationDateAndStatus: onBtnMenuClick
};
})();

jQuery search toggle

on my website I have a div .toggle-search that if you click on it it expands to .search-expand where a search form is. This is the code in jQuery
/* Toggle header search
/* ------------------------------------ */
$('.toggle-search').click(function(){
$('.toggle-search').toggleClass('active');
$('.search-expand').fadeToggle(250);
setTimeout(function(){
$('.search-expand input').focus();
}, 300);
});
Now the only way to close the .search-expand is to click once again on the .toggle-search. But I want to change that it closes if you click anywhere else on the site. For an easier example I have the Hueman theme, and I'm talking about the top right corner search option. http://demo.alxmedia.se/hueman/
Thanks!

Add the event on all elements except the search area.
$('body *:not(".search-expand")').click(function(){
$('.toggle-search').removeClass('active');
$('.search-expand').fadeOut(250);
});
or another way,
$('body').click(function(e){
if(e.target.className.indexOf('search-expand') < 0){
$('.toggle-search').removeClass('active');
$('.search-expand').fadeOut(250);
}
});

var isSearchFieldOpen = false;
var $toggleSearch = $('.toggle-search');
var $searchExpand = $('.search-expand');
function toggleSearch() {
// Reverse state
isSearchFieldOpen = !isSearchFieldOpen;
$toggleSearch.toggleClass('active');
// You can use callback function instead of using setTimeout
$searchExpand.fadeToggle(250, function() {
if (isSearchFieldOpen) {
$searchExpand.find('input').focus();
}
});
}
$toggleSearch.on('click', function(e) {
e.stopPropagation();
toggleSearch();
});
$(document.body).on('click', function(e) {
if (isSearchFieldOpen) {
var target = e.target;
// Checking if user clicks outside .search-expand
if (!$searchExpand.is(target) && !$searchExpand.has(target).length) {
toggleSearch();
}
}
});
I have a second search on the site with the same code as before only
with div .toggle-serach2 and .expand-search2, how can i make your code
so it wont overlap. just changing the name to $('toggle-search2')
doesn't cut it
in that case, I would suggest you convert your code into a plugin:
(function($, document) {
var bodyHandlerAttached = false;
var openedForms = [];
var instances = {};
var defaults = {
activeClass: 'active'
};
function ToggleSearch(elem, options) {
this.options = $.extend({}, defaults, options);
this.$elem = $(elem);
this.$btn = $(options.toggleBtn);
this.isOpen = false;
this.id = generateId();
this.bindEvents();
instances[this.id] = this;
if (!bodyHandlerAttached) {
handleOutsideClick();
bodyHandlerAttached = true;
}
}
ToggleSearch.prototype = {
bindEvents: function() {
this.$btn.on('click', $.proxy(toggleHandler, this));
},
open: function() {
if (this.isOpen) { return; }
var _this = this;
this.$btn.addClass(this.options.activeClass);
this.$elem.fadeIn(250, function() {
_this.$elem.find('input').focus();
});
openedForms.push(this.id);
this.isOpen = true;
},
close: function(instantly) {
if (!this.isOpen) { return; }
this.$btn.removeClass(this.options.activeClass);
if (instantly) {
this.$elem.hide();
} else {
this.$elem.fadeOut(250);
}
openedForms.splice(openedForms.indexOf(this.id), 1);
this.isOpen = false;
},
toggle: function() {
if (this.isOpen) {
this.close();
} else {
this.open();
}
}
};
var toggleHandler = function(ev) {
ev.stopPropagation();
this.toggle();
};
var handleOutsideClick = function(e) {
$(document.body).on('click', function(e) {
if (openedForms.length) {
var target = e.target;
var instance;
for (var id in instances) {
instance = instances[id];
if (!instance.$elem.is(target) && !instance.$elem.has(target).length) {
instance.close(true);
}
}
}
});
};
function generateId() {
return Math.random().toString(36).substr(2, 8);
}
$.fn.toggleSearch = function(options) {
return this.each(function() {
if (!$.data(this, 'toggleSearch')) {
$.data(this, 'toggleSearch', new ToggleSearch(this, options));
}
});
};
})(window.jQuery, document);
And then use it like this:
$('.search-expand').toggleSearch({
toggleBtn: '.toggle-search'
});
$('.search-expand2').toggleSearch({
toggleBtn: '.toggle-search2'
});
JSFiddle example

You could add a click handler to the main window that removes the active class:
$(window).click(function(){
$('.toggle-search').removeClass('active');
}
and then prevent the class removal when you click inside of your toggle-search elem
$('.toggle-search').click(function(e){
e.stopPropagation();
// remainder of click code here
)};

Try to add body click listener
$('body').click(function(e){
if ($(e.target).is('.toggle-search')) return;
$('.toggle-search').removeClass('active');
$('.search-expand').fadeOut(250);
});
