I have a VueJS application and am playing a video using a VideoJS player. I need to track and fire an alert when the player starts playing the video. I need help figuring out a way to do this. I am initializing my video player using this code.
this.player = videojs(this.$refs.videoPlayer, this.options, () => {
this.player.log(‘onPlayerReady’, this);
})

Hey VideoJS objects allow you to listen to numerous events fired during a video playback’s lifecycle. You can find a complete list of events at the following link. You must scroll down to the Events Section to get the list.

Can you give me an example of code snippet?
