React Native THEOplayer DRM

The @theoplayer/react-native-drm package provides a set of connectors for react-native-theoplayer, allowing playback of DRM-protected content.

Installation

npm install @theoplayer/react-native-drm

Usage

The connector needs to be registered to the ContentProtectionRegistry, providing both integrationId and keySystemId:

import { ContentProtectionRegistry } from 'react-native-theoplayer';
import { EzdrmFairplayContentProtectionIntegrationFactory } from 'react-native-theoplayer-drm';

ContentProtectionRegistry.registerContentProtectionIntegration(
  'ezdrm',   // integrationId
  'fairplay', // keySystemId
  new EzdrmFairplayContentProtectionIntegrationFactory()
);

The combination of both integrationId and keySystemId points the player towards the connector for a specific source, in this case the ezdrm connector for fairplay:

const source = {
  "sources": {
    "src": "<source_url>",
    "contentProtection": {
      "integration": "ezdrm",
      "fairplay": {
        "certificate": "<base64encoded_certificate>",
        "licenseAcquisitionURL": "<license_url>"
      },
    }
  }
};

Connectors

The THEOplayer DRM integrations repository contains a list of integrations for native Web, Android & iOS THEOplayer SDKs.

As the content protection API of react-native-theoplayer is very similar to that of THEOplayer's native Web SDK, the available Web connectors can mostly be reused as-is. These connectors are not available as npm packages however, and sometimes have dependencies on web-specific utilities. Because of this, the @theoplayer/react-native-drm package provides the following connectors, readily available to be used by react-native-theoplayer:

Vendor	Widevine	Playready	FairPlay
BuyDRM KeyOS	✓	✓	✓
EZDRM	✓ (*)	✓ (*)	✓
Verimatrix MultiDRM Core DRM	✓	✓	✓
Anvato	✓	✗	✓
Axinom	✓	✗	✓
CastLabs	✓	✓	✓
PallyCon	✗	✗	✓

(*) No connector is needed for these DRM vendors; it is handled by the player's default DRM flow.
