Please note that whilst the code in this repository is licensed under Apache 2.0, using this extension requires depending on OkHttp, which is licensed separately.

Getting the extension

The easiest way to use the extension is to add it as a gradle dependency:

implementation 'com.google.android.exoplayer:extension-okhttp:2.X.X'

where 2.X.X is the version, which must match the version of the ExoPlayer library being used.

Alternatively, you can clone the ExoPlayer repository and depend on the module locally. Instructions for doing this can be found in ExoPlayer's top level README.

Using the extension

ExoPlayer requests data through DataSource instances. These instances are obtained from instances of DataSource.Factory, which are instantiated and injected from application code.

If your application only needs to play http(s) content, using the OkHttp extension is as simple as updating any DataSource.Factory instantiations in your application code to use OkHttpDataSource.Factory. If your application also needs to play non-http(s) content such as local files, use:

new DefaultDataSourceFactory(
    ...
    /* baseDataSourceFactory= */ new OkHttpDataSource.Factory(...));
