Expo 声音的

提供 API 以在应用中实现音频播放和录音的库。

Android

iOS

tvOS

Web

Audio 和 expo-av 允许你在应用中实现音频播放和录音。

¥Audio from expo-av allows you to implement audio playback and recording in your app.

信息 tvOS（Apple TV）上不提供录音 API。

¥Audio recording APIs are not available on tvOS (Apple TV).

请注意，如果耳机/蓝牙音频设备断开连接，音频会自动停止。

¥Note that audio automatically stops if headphones/bluetooth audio devices are disconnected.

有关媒体播放 API 的示例，请参阅播放列表示例应用，有关录制 API 的示例，请参阅录音示例应用。

¥See the playlist example app for an example on the media playback API, and the recording example app for an example of the recording API.

安装

¥Installation

Terminal

- npx expo install expo-av

If you are installing this in an existing React Native app (bare workflow), start by installing expo in your project. Then, follow the additional instructions as mentioned by library's README under "Installation in bare React Native projects" section.

  }

  return (
    <View style={styles.container}>
      <Button
        title={recording ? 'Stop Recording' : 'Start Recording'}
        onPress={recording ? stopRecording : startRecording}
      />
    </View>
  );
}

const styles = StyleSheet.create({
  container: {
    flex: 1,
    justifyContent: 'center',
    backgroundColor: '#ecf0f1',
    padding: 10,
  },
});

在后台播放或录制音频

¥Playing or recording audio in background

iOS

在 iOS 上，后台音频播放和录音只能在独立应用中使用，并且需要一些额外的配置。在 iOS 上，每个后台功能都需要 Info.plist 文件中 UIBackgroundModes 数组中的特殊键。在独立应用中，该数组默认为空，因此要使用后台功能，你需要向 app.json 配置添加适当的键。

¥On iOS, audio playback and recording in background is only available in standalone apps, and it requires some extra configuration. On iOS, each background feature requires a special key in UIBackgroundModes array in your Info.plist file. In standalone apps this array is empty by default, so to use background features you will need to add appropriate keys to your app.json configuration.

请参阅启用后台音频播放的 app.json 示例：

¥See an example of app.json that enables audio playback in background:

{
  "expo": {
    ...
    "ios": {
      ...
      "infoPlist": {
        ...
        "UIBackgroundModes": [
          "audio"
        ]
      }
    }
  }
}

网络使用注意事项

¥Notes on web usage

Chrome 上的 MediaRecorder 问题会生成缺少持续时间元数据的 WebM 文件。请参阅未解决的 Chromium 问题。

¥A MediaRecorder issue on Chrome produces WebM files missing the duration metadata. See the open Chromium issue.
MediaRecorder 编码选项和其他配置在浏览器之间不一致，在应用中使用 kbumsik/opus-media-recorder 或 ai/audio-recorder-polyfill 等 Polyfill 将改善你的体验。传递给 prepareToRecordAsync 的任何选项都将直接传递给 MediaRecorder API 以及 polyfill。

¥MediaRecorder encoding options and other configurations are inconsistent across browsers, utilizing a Polyfill such as kbumsik/opus-media-recorder or ai/audio-recorder-polyfill in your application will improve your experience. Any options passed to prepareToRecordAsync will be passed directly to the MediaRecorder API and as such the polyfill.
Web 浏览器要求网站能够安全地提供服务，以便它们能够收听麦克风的声音。详细信息请参见 MediaDevices getUserMedia() 安全性。

¥Web browsers require sites to be served securely for them to listen to a mic. See MediaDevices getUserMedia() security for more details.

Hooks

`usePermissions(options)`

Name	Type
options (optional)	`PermissionHookOptions<object>`

Check or request permissions to record audio. This uses both requestPermissionAsync and getPermissionsAsync to interact with the permissions.

Example

const [permissionResponse, requestPermission] = Audio.usePermissions();

Classes

Only for:

Android

iOS

`Recording`

Warning: Experimental for web.

This class represents an audio recording. After creating an instance of this class, prepareToRecordAsync must be called in order to record audio. Once recording is finished, call stopAndUnloadAsync. Note that only one recorder is allowed to exist in the state between prepareToRecordAsync and stopAndUnloadAsync at any given time.

Note that your experience must request audio recording permissions in order for recording to function. See the Permissions module for more details.

Additionally, audio recording is not supported in the iOS Simulator.

Returns

A newly constructed instance of Audio.Recording.

Example

const recording = new Audio.Recording();
try {
  await recording.prepareToRecordAsync(Audio.RecordingOptionsPresets.HIGH_QUALITY);
  await recording.startAsync();
  // You are now recording!
} catch (error) {
  // An error occurred!
}
