Module

First install the dependency:

`

Then import the component and fill in your API endpoints:
`
import MediaPlayer from "@stronk-tech/react-librespot-controller";

`

$3

- hideOnDisconnect: When true, the entire component will hide itself when there is no connection to the API endpoint. Otherwise it will display an error state.
- websocketUrl: Full URL to the WebSocket endpoint of the go-librespot client.
- apiBaseUrl: Full URL to the HTTP API endpoint of the go-librespot client.
- kioskMode: When true, the component will fill the entire screen. Otherwise it will fill the available width and base the layout on the width only. It is recommended to leave this option false when importing the module into an existing webpage and to true when you are running the player standalone on a touch screen.
- layout: Can be auto, default, widescreen, portrait`. See the screenshots for how the layouts look like.
