## Usage
[Example repository](https://github.com/bazuka5801/native-audio-example)
```typescript
import {NativeAudio} from '@capacitor-community/native-audio'
/**
* This method will load more optimized audio files for background into memory.
* @param assetPath - relative path of the file or absolute url (file://)
* assetId - unique identifier of the file
* audioChannelNum - number of audio channels
* isUrl - pass true if assetPath is a `file://` url
* @returns void
*/
NativeAudio.preload({
assetId: "fire",
assetPath: "fire.mp3",
audioChannelNum: 1,
isUrl: false
});
/**
* This method will play the loaded audio file if present in the memory.
* @param assetId - identifier of the asset
* @param time - (optional) play with seek. example: 6.0 - start playing track from 6 sec
* @returns void
*/
NativeAudio.play({
assetId: 'fire',
// time: 6.0 - seek time
});
/**
* This method will loop the audio file for playback.
* @param assetId - identifier of the asset
* @returns void
*/
NativeAudio.loop({
assetId: 'fire',
});
/**
* This method will stop the audio file if it's currently playing.
* @param assetId - identifier of the asset
* @returns void
*/
NativeAudio.stop({
assetId: 'fire',
});
/**
* This method will unload the audio file from the memory.
* @param assetId - identifier of the asset
* @returns void
*/
NativeAudio.unload({
assetId: 'fire',
});
/**
* This method will set the new volume for a audio file.
* @param assetId - identifier of the asset
* volume - numerical value of the volume between 0.1 - 1.0
* @returns void
*/
NativeAudio.setVolume({
assetId: 'fire',
volume: 0.4,
});
/**
* this method will getΒ the duration of an audio file.
* only works if channels == 1
*/
NativeAudio.getDuration({
assetId: 'fire'
})
.then(result => {
console.log(result.duration);
})
/**
* this method will get the current time of a playing audio file.
* only works if channels == 1
*/
NativeAudio.getCurrentTime({
assetId: 'fire'
});
.then(result => {
console.log(result.currentTime);
})
/**
* This method will return false if audio is paused or not loaded.
* @param assetId - identifier of the asset
* @returns {isPlaying: boolean}
*/
NativeAudio.isPlaying({
assetId: 'fire'
})
.then(result => {
console.log(result.isPlaying);
})
