Installation

Using Video Embed

Pass a YouTube or Vimeo URL to the getVideoData method and a VideoData object is returned.

If the plugin is unable to parse the URL, null is returned.

  • type - If the video is youtube or vimeo
  • id - The ID of the video
  • image - The thumbnail of the video (only works for Youtube)
  • embedUrl - The URL you would use for the embed
  • url - The link to the embedded video

Example:

{% set video = craft.videoEmbed.getVideoData('https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6xWpo5Dn254') %}

{% if video %}
   <iframe src="{{ video.embedUrl }}"></iframe>
{% endif %}

Output:

<iframe src="//www.youtube.com/embed/6xWpo5Dn254"></iframe>
