Fluidvids is 1KB standalone module that provides a fluid solution for video embeds. By default, fluidvids supports YouTube and Vimeo - but you can easily add your own players. Fluidvids also provides support for dynamically injected (XHR/Ajax/createElement) videos.
Check out a demo of fluidvids. Also available as a WordPress plugin.
Pass in your configuration.
fluidvids.init({
selector: 'iframe', // runs querySelectorAll()
players: ['www.youtube.com', 'player.vimeo.com'] // players to support
});Fluidvids internally constructs a strict Regular Expression which obides by your players Array, so ensure any new videos you add are added to players: []. This helps avoid any unwanted videos being parsed and provides flexibility for scaling easily.
Provides dynamic video support. Using apply() should only be done when you want to requery the DOM and look for newly added videos, such as document.createElement('iframe');. Fluidvids uses internal object caching to lookup init() configuration, so it's lightning fast.
// run after dynamic elements have been injected
// you'll need to run this each time you need it
fluidvids.apply();Use the repository hook:
bower install https://github.com/toddmotto/fluidvids.git
Installing with browserify
Use the repository hook:
npm install toddmotto/fluidvids
Then require fluidvids in your file:
// Note that it is called as a function.
var fluidvids = require('fluidvids')();Ensure you're using the files from the dist directory (contains compiled production-ready code). Ensure you place the script before the closing </body> tag.
<body>
<!-- html above -->
<script src="dist/fluidvids.js"></script>
