Problem with AutoplaySlider and avif files

[realkhanhson]

I found some problem with avif files, It didn't work with AutoplaySlider

so as you can see, it only loads more than 70% then stop

I'm currently using nextjs 11.1.2, and this is my code.

import { FC } from 'react'
import style from './ImageSlider.module.css'
import AwesomeSlider from 'react-awesome-slider'
import withAutoplay from 'react-awesome-slider/dist/autoplay'

interface Props {
  className?: string
}

const AutoplaySlider = withAutoplay(AwesomeSlider)

const images = ['/banner/01.avif', '/banner/02.avif']

const ImageSlider: FC<Props> = ({ className }) => {
  return (
    <div className={className}>
      <AutoplaySlider
        // animation="foldOutAnimation"
        play={true}
        cancelOnInteraction={false}
        interval={5000}
        cssModule={style}
      >
        {images.map((image) => (
          <div key={image} data-src={image} />
        ))}
      </AutoplaySlider>
    </div>
  )
}
export default ImageSlider

Hi. If you(or someone else) still wonder how to make that work with that particular slider, I've digged through some code and found out that you would have to reach react-awesome-slider/dist/index.js and add avif to extend regular expression:

If you reach that file and look for

e.match(/\.(png|jp(e)?g|gif|webp)/i)

you will get 2 matches. You want to extend second match (see picture below) with |avif as changing first one does not give any results

e.match(/\.(png|jp(e)?g|gif|webp|avif)/i)

Changes to node modules aren't persistent and are bad idea due to npm install resetting it, but there is some cool library patch-package that checks for changes made to node modules and creates in your project patches dir with changes that are persistent!

After making mentioned change and installing patch-package run following command:

npx patch-package react-awesome-slider

and voila! You get persistent change and working .avif images. Idea with patch-package found at stack: https://stackoverflow.com/a/62567504 so if you got account and like the approach, mark answer as useful :)

PS:

I've tested that out on standard slider:

<AwesomeSlider className="awesome-slider">
              <div data-src="img/test.avif" />
              <div data-src="img/test2.avif" />
</AwesomeSlider>
