chromecast-js
=================
chromecast-js is a javascript client library for googlecast's remote playback protocol that uses DefaultMediaReceiver to play any (compatible) content in the Chromecast, it works by wrapping the [node-castv2-client](https://github.com/thibauts/node-castv2-client) module.
## Installation
From npm:
npm install chromecast-js
## Usage
``` javascript
chromecastjs = require('chromecast-js')
var browser = new chromecastjs.Browser()
browser.on('deviceOn', function(device){
device.connect()
device.on('connected', function(){
device.play('http://commondatastorage.googleapis.com/gtv-videos-bucket/big_buck_bunny_1080p.mp4', 60, function(){
console.log('Playing in your chromecast!')
});
setTimeout(function(){
device.pause(function(){
console.log('Paused!')
});
}, 30000);
setTimeout(function(){
device.stop(function(){
console.log('Stoped!')
});
}, 40000);
})
})
```
## Subtitles and Cover
To include subtitles and a cover image with the media title, use an Object instead of a string in the *play method*:
``` javascript
chromecastjs = require('../')
var browser = new chromecastjs.Browser()
var media = {
url : 'http://commondatastorage.googleapis.com/gtv-videos-bucket/big_buck_bunny_1080p.mp4',
subtitles: [{
language: 'en-US',
url: 'http://carlosguerrero.com/captions_styled.vtt',
name: 'English',
},
{
language: 'es-ES',
url: 'http://carlosguerrero.com/captions_styled_es.vtt',
name: 'Spanish',
}
],
cover: {
title: 'Big Bug Bunny',
url: 'http://commondatastorage.googleapis.com/gtv-videos-bucket/sample/images/BigBuckBunny.jpg'
},
