Customizing the UI

Customizing the React UI can be achieved via a combination of CSS and JS overrides. For simple colorization of the player, the theme api can be used:

var config = {
  var config = {
    plugins: {
      react: {
        resources: [
          {src: "#{paths.plugins}react/libs/react.min.js", debug: "#{paths.plugins}react/libs/react.js", type: "text/javascript"},
          {src: "#{paths.plugins}react/React.min.css", debug: "#{paths.plugins}react/React.css", type: "text/css"},
          {src: "#{paths.plugins}react/React.js", debug: "#{paths.plugins}react/React.js", type: "text/javascript"}
        ],
        theme: {
          text: "#DDDDDD",
          foreground: "rgba(217, 107, 18, 1)",
          background: "rgba(21, 103, 158, 0.8)"
        }
      }
    }
  }
};
akamai.amp.AMP.create("amp", config);

Themes can also be set at runtime:

amp.react.theme = {
  text: "#DDDDDD",
  foreground: "rgba(217, 107, 18, 1)",
  background: "rgba(21, 103, 158, 0.8)"
};

For modifications beyond simple colorization, use CSS to override the UI styles:

<style>
  .amp-rewind {
    display: none !important;
  }

  .amp-icon:hover {
    color: #CCCCCC;
  }
</style>

or via the JS using the embedded style tag:

<script>
  amp.react.style.innerHTML += ".amp-pause-overlay { display: none; }"
</script>

Here is a non-exhaustive list of the class names used in the player UI:

  var component = React.createElement("button", {
    className: "amp-icon amp-fullscreen",
    id: "component",
    key: "fs",
    onClick: function () {
      console.log("Custom Control");
    }
  });
  amp.react.controls.addComponent(component);
  // amp.react.controls.removeComponent(component);

  var element = document.createElement("div");
  amp.react.container.appendChild(element);
  // amp.react.container.removeChild(element);
});
