Using Lottie Animations in Remotion

Prerequisites

First, the @remotion/lottie package needs to be installed.
If it is not, use the following command:

npx remotion add @remotion/lottie # If project uses npm
bunx remotion add @remotion/lottie # If project uses bun
yarn remotion add @remotion/lottie # If project uses yarn
pnpm exec remotion add @remotion/lottie # If project uses pnpm

Displaying a Lottie file

To import a Lottie animation:

• Fetch the Lottie asset
• Wrap the loading process in delayRender() and continueRender()
• Save the animation data in a state
• Render the Lottie animation using the Lottie component from the @remotion/lottie package

import {Lottie, LottieAnimationData} from '@remotion/lottie';
import {useEffect, useState} from 'react';
import {cancelRender, continueRender, delayRender} from 'remotion';

export const MyAnimation = () => {
  const [handle] = useState(() => delayRender('Loading Lottie animation'));

  const [animationData, setAnimationData] = useState<LottieAnimationData | null>(null);

  useEffect(() => {
    fetch('https://assets4.lottiefiles.com/packages/lf20_zyquagfl.json')
      .then((data) => data.json())
      .then((json) => {
        setAnimationData(json);
        continueRender(handle);
      })
      .catch((err) => {
        cancelRender(err);
      });
  }, [handle]);

  if (!animationData) {
    return null;
  }

  return <Lottie animationData={animationData} />;
};

Styling and animating

Lottie supports the style prop to allow styles and animations:

return <Lottie animationData={animationData} style={{width: 400, height: 400}} />;
