Source Code and Build Process

This plugin ships both generated (minified) front-end assets and the human-readable sources used to produce them. Build tooling lives under build/ (sources, package.json, and scripts). node_modules/ is not distributed.

Generated assets and their sources

  • assets/js/videojs-html/lfvp-html-boot-free.js — built from build/html/src/lfvp-html-boot-free.js (and build/html/src/lfvp-html-video-player.js, plus shared/features/) with esbuild (build/html/build.mjs).
  • assets/js/lfvp-react-player.js and assets/css/lfvp-react-player.css — built from build/react/src/ (entry index.jsx) with webpack (build/react/webpack.config.js).

Authored (not generated)

  • assets/js/lfvp-player.js — HTML renderer controller (human-readable; long CSS rule strings for the Video.js shadow tree are intentional).
  • assets/css/lfvp-player-html.css, assets/css/lfvp-video-title-overlay.css
  • shared/features/*.js and other small modules under assets/js/

How to rebuild

Requires Node.js 18+ and npm. See also build/README.md.

  1. HTML boot: cd build/html && npm install && npm run build
  2. React player: cd build/react && npm install && npm run build

Third-party libraries

  • Video.js v10 (@videojs/html, @videojs/core, and related packages, version 10.0.0-beta.23) — Apache License 2.0 — https://github.com/videojs/v10 — bundled into the HTML boot and React player builds.
  • React 18 — MIT — provided by WordPress as the wp-element script (not bundled). The React build includes only the JSX runtime license notice in assets/js/lfvp-react-player.js.LICENSE.txt.

The free plugin does not ship a full hls.js player for progressive playback; HLS adaptive streaming is a Pro feature.

Blocks

This plugin provides 1 block.

  • Logicfire Video Player Embed a Logicfire video player with Media Library, URL, or Video library sources.

FAQ

Does the free version support HLS?

No. HLS (.m3u8) requires Logicfire Video Player Pro.

Does it require WooCommerce?

No. The free player works on any WordPress site. Pro can optionally gate playback by WooCommerce purchase.

Where are translations loaded from?

When hosted on WordPress.org, translations for the logicfire-video-player text domain are loaded automatically by WordPress.

What data does the plugin store?

Player settings are stored as WordPress options. Video metadata lives on the Video custom post type. Optional uninstall cleanup can remove settings when the plugin is deleted; video posts and media files are never removed automatically.
