H5P Standalone Player 3.x

Display H5P content without the need for an H5P server

Installation

Source	Info
yarn	`yarn add h5p-standalone`
Release	Donwload latest version here

Basic Usage

Ensure you have an extracted H5P zip file in your workspace folder first. A simple guide on how to extract an H5P zip file is provided towards the end section of this guide

The player can be set up either by directly calling the already built scripts and styles in your HTML page or using ES6 syntax. For the standalone player to work correctly on a webpage, both the assets, settings, and H5P specific files need to be set properly first.

Direct use

Download the project latest release zipped source code from here
Extract the downloaded zipped code in step 1 above
Copy the contents of the dist folder into your workspace static assets folder ( The folder name does not matter. Remember the location for the next step )
Add a div element in your HTML page where you want to display the H5P content. The div element should have a unique id attribute as compared to all other elements on the same page.
```
<div id='h5p-container'></div>
```
Include the H5P standalone main script in your HTML page (modify the path location if the files are not in the assets folder)
```
<script type="text/javascript" src="assets/main.bundle.js"></script>
```
Call the H5P player by providing arguments on where to find a div element and the location of the H5P content.
```
const el = document.getElementById('h5p-container');
const options = {
  h5pJsonPath:  '/h5p-folder',
  frameJs: '/assets/frame.bundle.js',
  frameCss: '/assets/styles/h5p.css',
}
new H5PStandalone.H5P(el, options);
```
A detailed description of the H5P player arguments are provided under the advance section Simple instruction on how to extract H5P zipped file provided here

Using ES6

Install the player using yarn

yarn add h5p-standalone

Add an element to attach the player

<div id='h5p-container'></div>

initialize the H5P

import { H5P } from 'h5p-standalone'; // ES6
// const { H5P } = require('h5p-standalone'); AMD
// const { H5P } = 'H5PStandalone'; // object destructuring

const el = document.getElementById('h5p-container');
const options = {
    h5pJsonPath: '/h5p-folder',
    frameJs: '/assets/frame.bundle.js',
    frameCss: '/assets/styles/h5p.css',
};

new H5P(el, h5pLocation);

A detailed description of the H5P player arguments are provided under the advance section

Advanced Usage

The standalone H5P player constructor accepts two arguments.

A HTML element where the H5P iframe will be embedded as the first argument.
JSON object with the following options :

H5P Options

Option name	Required	Description
`h5pJsonPath`	true	Path to the H5P content folder
`frameCss`	true	URL to the standalone player `h5p.css`
`frameJs`	true	URL to the standalone player `frame.bundle.js`
`id`	false	Player unique identifier. Randomly generated by default
`librariesPath`	false	Path where the player should find the H5P content libraries. Defaults to same as `h5pJsonPath`
`contentJsonPath`	false	Path where the player should find the H5P `content.json` file. Defaults to `{h5pJsonPath}/content/`,
`frame`	false	A boolean on whether to show frame and buttons below H5P
`copyright`	false	A boolean on whether display copyright button
`embed`	false	A boolean on whether display embed button
`export`	false	A boolean on whether display a download button.
`icon`	false	A boolean on whether display H5P icon
`downloadUrl`	false	A path or a url that returns zipped h5p for download. The link is used by H5P `export` button
`fullScreen`	false	A boolean on whether to enable fullscreen button if browser supports the feature. Default is `false`
`xAPIObjectIRI`	false	An identifier for a single unique Activity ~ utilized when generating xAPI object field. Default is page host+pathname

Note:

One can use absolute URL for frameCss, frameJs, and for other path options(h5pJsonPath,librariesPath, & librariesPath)
Any path that starts with a forward slash / is treated as relative to the site root.
Any path starting with a dot is treated to be in respect to the current page directory.

Example with advance options

import { H5P } from 'h5p-standalone';

const el = document.getElementById('h5p-container');
const h5pLocation = './workspace';

const options = {
    id: 'exercise-one',
    frameJs: './frame.bundle.js',
    frameCss: './styles/h5p.css',
    h5pJsonPath: "/path/to/h5p-folder",
    librariesPath: "/path/to/h5p-folder", //content is on same folder level as h5p.json
    librariesPath: "/path/to/shared/libaries", //shared libraries path
    frame: true, //required to display copyright,  embed, & export buttons
    copyright: true,
    embed: false,
   'export': false,
    icon: true,
    downloadUrl: '/path/to/exercise-one.h5p',
    fullScreen: true //enable fullscreen button
  };


new H5P(el,options)
.then(() => {
  // do stuff
});

// Or using async-await syntax (async wrapper function removed for readability) :

 await new H5P(el, options);

Multiple H5P players on the same page

To render multiple H5Ps, your code must be async aware.

import { H5P } from 'h5p-standalone';
const player1Options = {
    h5pJsonPath: '/h5p/exercise-one',
    frameJs: '/assets/frame.bundle.js',
    frameCss: '/assets/styles/h5p.css',
};

const player2Options = {
    h5pJsonPath: '/h5p/exercise-two',
    frameJs: '/assets/frame.bundle.js',
    frameCss: '/assets/styles/h5p.css',
};

const player1 = new H5P(document.getElementById('h5p-container-1'), player1Options);

player1.then(() => {
  return new H5P(document.getElementById('h5p-container-2'), player2Options);
}).then(( => {
  // do stuff
}));


// OR (async wrapper function removed for readability)
await new H5P(document.getElementById('h5p-container-1'), player1Options);
await new H5P(document.getElementById('h5p-container-2'), player2Options);

Listening to xAPI events

To listen for xAPI events emmitted by the player, you must wait for the player to finish loading and initializing the required content libraries. You can find more info about xAPI events here https://h5p.org/documentation/x-api

Using then() method

const el = document.getElementById("h5p-container");
const options = {
  h5pJsonPath: "/h5p-folder",
  frameJs: "/assets/frame.bundle.js",
  frameCss: "/assets/styles/h5p.css",
};

new H5PStandalone.H5P(el, options).then(function () {
  H5P.externalDispatcher.on("xAPI", (event) => {
    //do something useful with the event
    console.log("xAPI event: ", event);
  });
});

Using async function

import { H5P as H5PStandalone } from 'h5p-standalone'; //you need you an alias due to conflict

async function myAwesomePlayer() {
  const el = document.getElementById("h5p-container");
  const options = {
    h5pJsonPath: "/h5p-folder",
    frameJs: "/assets/frame.bundle.js",
    frameCss: "/assets/styles/h5p.css",
  };

  await new H5PStandalone(el, options);

  H5P.externalDispatcher.on("xAPI", (event) => {
    //do something useful with the event
    console.log("xAPI event: ", event);
  });
}

//don't forget to call the function
myAwesomePlayer();

Extracting H5P

Rename the H5P file extension from .h5p file to .zip
Extract the renamed file contents into your workspace h5p-folder folder
