/****
To play the video picked from the gallery or local library, 
first of all we need to drag and drop a UIView and 
a UIButton to the viewcontroller on the main storyboard. 
After that the video is picked up in the viewcontroller 
and the code to play it is shown below -

****/

import UIKit
import Foundation
import AVKit
import AVFoundation

class ViewController: UIViewController {

    @IBOutlet weak var viewVideoShow: UIView!
    
    var avPlayer: AVPlayer!
    var avpController = AVPlayerViewController()
    var selectedVideoUrl: URL?
    
    override func viewDidLoad() {
        super.viewDidLoad()
    }
    
  // MARK: Play Video Function 
  
    private func playVideo(_ url: URL) {
        avPlayer = AVPlayer(url: url)
        avpController.player = avPlayer
      
      // MARK: Video Full Frame size show.
        avpController.view.frame.size.height = viewVideoShow.frame.size.height
        avpController.view.frame.size.width = viewVideoShow.frame.size.width
        
      	self.viewVideoShow.addSubview(avpController.view)
        
//        MARK: Automatic Play Video.
//        avPlayer.play()
        
    }
  
   // MARK: Video Pick Action Button.
  
    @IBAction func AddVideoButton(_ sender: UIButton) {
        let videoPicker = UIImagePickerController()
        videoPicker.modalPresentationStyle = .fullScreen
        videoPicker.delegate = self
        videoPicker.mediaTypes = ["public.movie"]
        videoPicker.sourceType = .savedPhotosAlbum
        self.present(videoPicker, animated: true, completion: nil)
    }

}

// MARK: ImagePickerControllerDelegate call

extension ViewController: UIImagePickerControllerDelegate {
    func imagePickerController(_ picker: UIImagePickerController, didFinishPickingMediaWithInfo info: [UIImagePickerController.InfoKey : Any]) {
        picker.dismiss(animated: true, completion: nil)
        guard let movieUrl = info[.mediaURL] as? URL else { return }
        
//        print(movieUrl)
        playVideo(movieUrl)
    }
}

// MARK: NavigationControllerDelegate call

extension ViewController: UINavigationControllerDelegate {
    func imagePickerControllerDidCancel(_ picker: UIImagePickerController) {
        picker.dismiss(animated: true, completion: nil)
    }
}
