To call methods on the instance of the Player component. you may get a reference to the component and call the methods on ref.current. This is esentially reacts way of doing a document.getElementById(); You may then use this ref ie: player in the example below to call methods that are described in this documentation. See ref in react documentation
import React from 'react';
import { Player } from '@lottiefiles/react-lottie-player';
class App extends React.Component {
constructor(props) {
super(props);
this.player = React.createRef(); // initialize your ref
}
render() {
return (
<Player
ref={this.player} // set the ref to your class instance
autoplay={false}
loop={true}
controls={true}
src="https://assets3.lottiefiles.com/packages/lf20_XZ3pkn.json"
style={{ height: '300px', width: '300px' }}
></Player>
);
}
}
export default App;The lottieRef prop returns the Lottie instance which you can use to set data and call methods as described in the bodymovin documentation.
import React from 'react';
import { Player } from '@lottiefiles/react-lottie-player';
class App extends React.Component {
constructor(props) {
super(props);
this.state = { lottie: null }; // initialize your state
}
render() {
return (
<Player
lottieRef={instance => {
this.setState({ lottie: instance }); // the lottie instance is returned in the argument of this prop. set it to your local state
}}
