PallyCon Multi-DRM sample for React-Native-Video

This sample code shows how to integrate PallyCon Multi-DRM with react-native-video project. It supports streaming playback of DRM-protected contents on React Native based Android and iOS applications.

  • Android: MPEG-DASH content protected by Widevine DRM
  • iOS: HLS content protected by FairPlay Streaming DRM

If you want download/offline scenario support, you may need to implement the feature on your own or use our Multi-DRM Client SDK for React Native product which is under development.

Requirements

This sample requires components and environments as below:

  • React Native 0.68.2 or later
  • react-native-video 6.0.0 or later

On Apple silicon environment such as M1, latest version of React Native can cause issues. So it is recommended to use 0.68.2 on those development environment.

Creating React Native project

After setting up React Native development environment, create a project by running the command below:

# for systems other than Apple silicon
$ react-native init ProjectName

# for Apple silicon devices such as M1 MacBook, you may need to use 0.68.2 version of React Native
# $ react-native init ProjectName --version 0.68.2

Installing react-native-video package

Install the react-native-video package version 6.0.0 or higher on the project.

# Using 6.0.0-alpha.1 which is the latest version as of now.
$ npm install react-native-video@6.0.0-alpha.1
or
$ yarn add react-native-video@{{6.0.0-alpha.1}} 

Widevine DRM integration for Android

Apply Widevine DRM integration on App.js file in your project by referring to this sample code. You may need to replace the below values if you want to test your own Widevine content.

  • Widevine content URL : Input your DASH mpd URL in source > uri parameter
  • License server URL : Input our DRM license server URL (https://license-global.pallycon.com/ri/licenseManager.do)
  • DRM custom data : Input PallyCon DRM license token string as pallycon-customdata-v2 custom header.

App.js code example

```jsx
import React from "react";
import { StyleSheet, View } from "react-native";
import Video, { DRMType } from 'react-native-video';

const VideoPlayer = () => {
  return (
    <View style={styles.container}>
      <Video
      source={{ 
        uri: "https://Widevine.DRM.ContentURL.mpd" 
      }}
      style={styles.fullScreen}
      paused={false}
      resizeMode={"cover"}
      onLoad={e => console.log(e)}
      repeat={true}
      onAnimatedValueUpdate={() => {}}
      drm={{
        type: DRMType.WIDEVINE,
        licenseServer:'https://license-global.pallycon.com/ri/licenseManager.do',
        headers: {          
          'pallycon-customdata-v2': "PallyCon Token String",
          'Content-Type': 'application/octet-stream'
        }
       }}/>
    </View>
  );
};

const styles = StyleSheet.create({
  container: {
    flex: 1,
    justifyContent: "center",
    alignItems: "center",
    backgroundColor: "white"
  },
  fullScreen: {
    position: "absolute",
    top: 0,
    left: 0,
    bottom: 0,
    right: 0
  }
});

export default VideoPlayer;
```

Running the project on Android device

You can test the sample on a Widevine-supported Android device using the commands below:

# find connected device
$ adb devices
List of devices attached
RXXXXXXXXTW	device
  
# change TCP port to 8081 
$ adb reverse tcp:8081 tcp:8081
  
# run the project
$ react-native run-android

FairPlay Streaming (FPS) DRM integration for iOS

Apply FPS DRM integration on App.js file in your project by referring to this sample code. You may need to replace the below values if you want to test your own FairPlay content.

  • FPS content URL: Input your HLS m3u8 URL in source > uri parameter
  • License server URL: Input our DRM license server URL (https://license-global.pallycon.com/ri/licenseManager.do)
  • Certificate URL: Input your FPS cert URL with your site ID (https://license.pallycon.com/ri/fpsKeyManager.do?siteId=Your Site ID)
  • DRM custom data: Input PallyCon DRM license token string as pallycon-customdata-v2 custom header.

App.js code example

```jsx
import React from "react";
import { StyleSheet, View } from "react-native";
import Video, { DRMType } from 'react-native-video';

const VideoPlayer = () => {
  return (
    <View style={styles.container}>
      <Video
      source={{ 
        uri: "https://FPS.DRM.ContentURL.m3u8" 
      }}
      style={styles.fullScreen}
      paused={false} 
      resizeMode={"cover"} 
      onLoad={e => console.log(e)} 
      repeat={true} 
      onAnimatedValueUpdate={() => {}}
      drm={{
        type: DRMType.FAIRPLAY,
        licenseServer:'https://license-global.pallycon.com/ri/licenseManager.do',
        certificateUrl: 'https://license.pallycon.com/ri/fpsKeyManager.do?siteId=Your Site ID',
        base64Certificate: true,       
        headers: {          
          'pallycon-customdata-v2': "PallyCon Token String",
          'Content-Type': 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded'
        }
       }}/>
    </View>
  );
};

const styles = StyleSheet.create({
  container: {
    flex: 1,
    justifyContent: "center",
    alignItems: "center",
    backgroundColor: "white"
  },
  fullScreen: {
    position: "absolute",
    top: 0,
    left: 0,
    bottom: 0,
    right: 0
  }
});

export default VideoPlayer;
```

pod install

Install dependency libraries of the project and open the generated Xcode workspace.

$ cd projectName/ios && pod install
 
# if pod install is not working on Apple silicon, try the below
# arch -x86_64 pod install
  
$ open projectName.xcworkspace

To test the playback of FPS content, you need an iOS/iPadOS device or Apple silicon macOS device. You cannot test it on an iOS simulator.

Fix react-native-video

Modify the RCTVideo.swift file in the iOS folder as shown below.

// RCTVideo.swift
// On line 345, change self.onGetLicense to nil to get the license.
if self._drm != nil || self._localSourceEncryptionKeyScheme != nil {
  self._resouceLoaderDelegate = RCTResourceLoaderDelegate(
    asset: asset,
    drm: self._drm,
    localSourceEncryptionKeyScheme: self._localSourceEncryptionKeyScheme,
    onVideoError: self.onVideoError,
    onGetLicense: nil, // <<-- self.onGetLicense -> nil
    reactTag: self.reactTag
  )
}
