# ExoPlayer OkHttp extension
|
|
|
|
The OkHttp extension is an [HttpDataSource][] implementation that uses Square's
|
|
[OkHttp][].
|
|
|
|
OkHttp is a modern network stack that's widely used by many popular Android
|
|
applications. It supports the HTTP and HTTP/2 protocols.

## License note

Please note that whilst the code in this repository is licensed under

licensed separately.

|
## Getting the module
|
|
|
|
The easiest way to get the module is to add it as a gradle dependency:
|
|
|
|
```gradle
|
|
implementation 'com.google.android.exoplayer:extension-okhttp:2.X.X'
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
where `2.X.X` is the version, which must match the version of the other media
|
|
modules 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 module
|
|
|
|
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(...));
|
|
```
