The LivepeerConfig component manages configuration for all hooks using React Context.

​
Usage

import { LivepeerConfig } from '@livepeer/react';

The LivepeerConfig should wrap all of your pages, so every page can use hooks provided by Livepeer React.

const client = createReactClient({
  provider: studioProvider({ apiKey: 'yourStudioApiKey' }),
});

function App() {
  return (
    <LivepeerConfig client={client}>
      <YourRoutes />
    </LivepeerConfig>
  );
}

If you are using an SSR framework (like Next.js), see SSR for specific instructions on how to configure the head of the document, to ensure hydration happens correctly.

​
Configuration

​
client

A livepeer Client instance that consists of configuration options. Required to connect to a provider.

const client = createReactClient({
  provider: studioProvider({ apiKey: "yourStudioApiKey" }),
});

function App() {
  return (
    <LivepeerConfig client={client}>
      <YourRoutes />
    </LivepeerConfig>
  );
}

​
theme

Sets the global theme overrides. It is recommended to use this for any global app styles. This is optional and every value has a default. See the source code for more information.

const client = createReactClient({
  provider: studioProvider({ apiKey: "yourStudioApiKey" }),
});

const theme: ThemeConfig = {
  colors: {
    accent: "rgb(0, 145, 255)",
    containerBorderColor: "rgba(0, 145, 255, 0.9)",
  },
  fonts: {
    display: "Inter",
  },
  radii: {
    slider: "4px",
  },
};

function App() {
  return (
    <LivepeerConfig client={client} theme={theme}>
      <YourRoutes />
    </LivepeerConfig>
  );
}

​
SSR

The following section only applies to web-based use-cases - React Native has no concept of SSR.

You can get access to the CSS string by using the getCssText function. This function is made available by the createStitches function. This will give you all the CSS you need to server-side render it.

For a better hydration strategy, we highly recommend adding an id="stitches" to your style tag.

Here’s an example of SSR with Next.js:

import NextDocument, { Html, Head, Main, NextScript } from "next/document";
import { getCssText } from "@livepeer/react";

export default class Document extends NextDocument {
  render() {
    return (
      <Html lang="en">
        <Head>
          <style
            id="stitches"
            dangerouslySetInnerHTML={{ __html: getCssText() }}
          />
        </Head>
        <body>
          <Main />
          <NextScript />
        </body>
      </Html>
    );
  }
}

See the Stitches documentation for further information.
