Video.js CDN - vjs.zencdn.net

Sponsored by Fastly!

The Video.js CDN hosts updated copies of the various files needed for the player.

See videojs.com for more info on using those files. The following instructions are for CDN admins.

Overview

The CDN hosts copies of Video.js and its hosted dependencies.

• video.js - /version/video.js (includes most of dist)
• videojs-swf - /swf/version/video-js.swf
• videojs-font - /font/version/*
• videojs-ie8 - /ie8/version/*

For Video.js we also provide auto-updating major and minor versions.

NOTE: Only use the /5/video.js copy for testing. Do not use in production because the base CSS will change and other issues may occur. Similar to jquery-latest.

# Gets every patch and minor release for Video.js version 5
vjs.zencdn.net/5/video.js

# Gets every patch release for 5.[x]
vjs.zencdn.net/5.[x]/video.js

Updating and publishing modules

First update the specific module you want to publish a new version of.

npm install video.js
npm install videojs-swf
npm install videojs-font
npm install videojs-ie8

# You can also install specific versions to be published
npm install [email protected]

Then run the grunt task to publish that module

# vjs.zencdn.net/5.x.x/video.js
grunt publish:videojs

# vjs.zencdn.net/swf/4.x.x/video-js.swf
grunt publish:swf

# vjs.zencdn.net/font/1.x.x/VideoJS.ttf
grunt publish:font

# vjs.zencdn.net/ie8/1.x.x/videojs-ie8.js
grunt publish:ie8

If this is the latest non-prerelease version of Video.js, also run the grunt publish:videojs:latest command

# Update the major (/5-unsafe/) and minor (/5.x/) CDN copies with the latest version
# Also puts the package.json at the root of the CDN
grunt publish:videojs:latest

You can also update the major and minor url versions manually.

• Minor versions should get all patch releases (except prereleases)
• Major versions should get all minor and patch releases (except prereleases)
• Patch releases should never change, including hosted dependencies

# vjs.zencdn.net/5/video.js
grunt publish:videojs:major

# vjs.zencdn.net/5.x/video.js
grunt publish:videojs:minor

# vjs.zencdn.net/5.x.x/video.js
# Same as leaving off the release type
grunt publish:videojs:patch

Setup

The following envirnoment variables are expected by the tasks. Add them to your bash_profile and replace the values with ones you get from another CDN admin.
