`html`
controls
loop
mode="normal"

style="width: 320px"

You may set and load animations programatically as well.
`html`
`js`
const player = document.querySelector("lottie-player");
player.addEventListener("rendered", (e) => {
//Load via URL
player.load("https://assets3.lottiefiles.com/packages/lf20_UJNc2t.json");
// or load via a Bodymovin JSON string/object
player.load(
'{"v":"5.3.4","fr":30,"ip":0,"op":38,"w":315,"h":600,"nm":"new", ... }'
);
});
Add the element tgs-player and set the src property to a URL pointing to a valid TGS JSON.
`html`
Import the player either as
`js`
import * as LottiePlayer from "@lottiefiles/lottie-player";
or
`js`
require("@lottiefiles/lottie-player");
Use as follows
`html`

For typescript projects an added step is required. The component must be declared as a JSX intrinsic element. Create a file 'declarations.d.ts' in the root of your project and add the code below to the file.
`js`
declare namespace JSX {
interface IntrinsicElements {
"lottie-player": any;
}
}
Create a lottie-player.js file inside the /plugins folder and add the below code to the file:
`js`
import * as LottiePlayer from "@lottiefiles/lottie-player"; nuxt.config.js
\
Open file and add the following entry to register the newly created plugin:
`js`
export default {
plugins: [{ src: "~/plugins/lottie-player.js", mode: "client" }]
}
This is because the player script needs to be rendered on the browser/client side and we must configure Nuxt to load the script on the client side only.
\
You would then be able to use the player as follows inside any component:
`html`
controls
loop
style="width:400px"
src="https://assets3.lottiefiles.com/packages/lf20_RItkEz.json"
speed="1"
debug
/>
The process for Nuxt 3 is slightly different.
Create a lottie-player.client.ts file inside the /plugins folder and add the below code to the file:
`js
import * as LottiePlayer from "@lottiefiles/lottie-player";
export default LottiePlayer;
`
\
Your plugin will be automatically available throughout your Nuxt application thanks to the plugin auto-registration. Note the suffix in the name of the plugin - this tells Nuxt to load it only on the client side, as the Lottie Player script can only be rendered in the browser.
You would then be able to use the player as follows inside any component:
`html`
controls
loop
style="width:400px"
src="https://assets3.lottiefiles.com/packages/lf20_RItkEz.json"
speed="1"
debug
/>
The process to import in NextJS is similar to Nuxt in the sense that on SSR mode, the library must be declared as a client side module. To do this, import the library within a react useEffect hook.
`javascript
import React, { useRef } from "react";
export default function Home() {
const ref = useRef(null);
React.useEffect(() => {
import("@lottiefiles/lottie-player");
});
return (
Do add a declaration file named declaration.d.ts to the root of the project as well
javascript
declare namespace JSX {
interface IntrinsicElements {
"lottie-player": any;
}
}
