Usage and examples¶
Simple usage¶
Required imports
>>> from vishap import render_video
Rendering Vimeo code¶
>>> print render_video('http://vimeo.com/45655450', 500, 281)
<iframe src="//player.vimeo.com/video/45655450" width="500" height="281"
frameborder="0" webkitallowfullscreen mozallowfullscreen allowfullscreen>
</iframe>
Rendering Youtube code¶
>>> print render_video('http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LIPl7PtGXNI', 560, 315)
<iframe width="560" height="315" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/LIPl7PtGXNI"
frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>
Filling available area¶
If you want your embed code to fill the available area, render it without width and height attributes and place it in a container to which it shall stretch.
Example
>>> s = """<div class="video-wrapper">
>>> {embed_code}
>>> </div>""".format(
>>> embed_code = render_video('http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LIPl7PtGXNI')
>>> )
Your CSS file should then look similar to the following
- .video-wrapper {
- width: 600px; height: 500px; padding: 0;
- }
- .video-wrapper iframe {
- position: absolute; width: 100%; height: 100%;
}
Register a custom plugin¶
>>> class ExamplePlugin(BaseVideoPlugin):
>>> uid = "example"
>>> name = "Example"
>>> url_pattern = "^(?P<prefix>(http\:\/\/www\.youtube\.com\/watch\?v=)|(http\:\/\/www\.youtube\.com\/v\/)|(http\:\/\/youtu\.be\/))(?P<value>[A-Za-z0-9\-=_]{11})"
>>> id_pattern = "^(?P<value>[A-Za-z0-9\-=_]{11})"
>>> thumbnail_pattern = "//img.youtube.com/vi/{0}/{1}.jpg"
>>> embed_code = """
>>> <iframe src="//www.youtube.com/embed/{video_id}" {options} frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>
>>> """
>>>
>>> plugin_registry.register(ExamplePlugin)
Replacing existing plugin¶
If you want to replace/update existing plugin, you can force register it in the registry.
>>> class UpdatedYoutubePlugin(BaseVideoPlugin):
>>> uid = "youtube"
>>> name = "Youtube"
>>> url_pattern = "^(?P<prefix>(http\:\/\/www\.youtube\.com\/watch\?v=)|(http\:\/\/www\.youtube\.com\/v\/)|(http\:\/\/youtu\.be\/))(?P<value>[A-Za-z0-9\-=_]{11})"
>>> id_pattern = "^(?P<value>[A-Za-z0-9\-=_]{11})"
>>> thumbnail_pattern = "//img.youtube.com/vi/{0}/{1}.jpg"
>>> embed_code = """
>>> <iframe src="//www.youtube.com/embed/{video_id}" {options} frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>
>>> """
>>>
>>> plugin_registry.register(UpdatedYoutubePlugin, force=True)
