Embedded content
|
|
================
|
|
|
|
Wagtail supports generating embed code from URLs to content on external
|
|
providers such as Youtube or Twitter. By default, Wagtail will fetch the embed
|
|
code directly from the relevant provider's site using the oEmbed protocol.
|
|
|
|
Wagtail has a built-in list of the most common providers and this list can be
|
|
changed :ref:`with a setting <customising_embed_providers>`. Wagtail also supports
|
|
fetching embed code using `Embedly`_ and :ref:`custom embed finders <custom_embed_finders>`.
|
|
|
|
Embedding content on your site
|
|
==============================
|
|
|
|
Wagtail's embeds module should work straight out of the box for most providers.
|
|
You can use any of the following methods to call the module:
|
|
|
|
Rich text
|
|
---------
|
|
|
|
Wagtail's default rich text editor has a "media" icon that allows embeds to be
|
|
placed into rich text. You don't have to do anything to enable this; just make
|
|
sure the rich text field's content is being passed through the ``|richtext``
|
|
filter in the template as this is what calls the embeds module to fetch and
|
|
nest the embed code.
|
|
|
|
``EmbedBlock`` StreamField block type
|
|
-------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
The :class:`~wagtail.embeds.block.EmbedBlock` block type allows embeds
|
|
to be placed into a ``StreamField``.
|
|
|
|
For example:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: python
|
|
|
|
from wagtail.embeds.blocks import EmbedBlock
|
|
|
|
class MyStreamField(blocks.StreamBlock):
|
|
...
|
|
|
|
embed = EmbedBlock()
|
|
|
|
``{% embed %}`` tag
|
|
-------------------
|
|
|
|
Syntax: ``{% embed <url> [max_width=<max width>] %}``
|
|
|
|
You can nest embeds into a template by passing the URL and an optional
|
|
``max_width`` argument to the ``{% embed %}`` tag.
|
|
|
|
The ``max_width`` argument is sent to the provider when fetching the embed code.
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: html+Django
|
|
|
|
{% load wagtailembeds_tags %}
|
|
|
|
{# Embed a YouTube video #}
|
|
{% embed 'https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SJXMTtvCxRo' %}
|
|
|
|
{# This tag can also take the URL from a variable #}
|
|
{% embed page.video_url %}
|
|
|
|
From Python
|
|
-----------
|
|
|
|
You can also call the internal ``get_embed`` function that takes a URL string
|
|
and returns an ``Embed`` object (see model documentation below). This also
|
|
takes a ``max_width`` keyword argument that is sent to the provider when
|
|
fetching the embed code.
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: python
|
|
|
|
from wagtail.embeds.embeds import get_embed
|
|
from wagtail.embeds.exceptions import EmbedException
|
|
|
|
try:
|
|
embed = get_embed('https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SJXMTtvCxRo')
|
|
|
|
print(embed.html)
|
|
except EmbedException:
|
|
# Cannot find embed
|
|
pass
|
|
|
|
.. _configuring_embed_finders:
|
|
|
|
Configuring embed "finders"
|
|
===========================
|
|
|
|
Embed finders are the modules within Wagtail that are responsible for producing
|
|
embed code from a URL.
|
|
|
|
Embed finders are configured using the ``WAGTAILEMBEDS_FINDERS`` setting. This
|
|
is a list of finder configurations that are each run in order until one of them
|
|
successfully returns an embed:
|
|
|
|
The default configuration is:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: python
|
|
|
|
WAGTAILEMBEDS_FINDERS = [
|
|
{
|
|
'class': 'wagtail.embeds.finders.oembed'
|
|
}
|
|
]
|
|
|
|
.. _oEmbed:
|
|
|
|
oEmbed (default)
|
|
----------------
|
|
|
|
The default embed finder fetches the embed code directly from the content
|
|
provider using the oEmbed protocol. Wagtail has a built-in list of providers
|
|
which are all enabled by default. You can find that provider list at the
|
|
following link:
|
|
|
|
https://github.com/wagtail/wagtail/blob/master/wagtail/embeds/oembed_providers.py
|
|
|
|
.. _customising_embed_providers:
|
|
|
|
Customising the provider list
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
You can limit which providers may be used by specifying the list of providers
|
|
in the finder configuration.
|
|
|
|
For example, this configuration will only allow content to be nested from Vimeo
|
|
and Youtube. It also adds a custom provider:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: python
|
|
|
|
from wagtail.embeds.oembed_providers import youtube, vimeo
|
|
|
|
# Add a custom provider
|
|
# Your custom provider must support oEmbed for this to work. You should be
|
|
# able to find these details in the provider's documentation.
|
|
# - 'endpoint' is the URL of the oEmbed endpoint that Wagtail will call
|
|
# - 'urls' specifies which patterns
|
|
my_custom_provider = {
|
|
'endpoint': 'https://customvideosite.com/oembed',
|
|
'urls': [
|
|
'^http(?:s)?://(?:www\\.)?customvideosite\\.com/[^#?/]+/videos/.+$',
|
|
]
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
WAGTAILEMBEDS_FINDERS = [
|
|
{
|
|
'class': 'wagtail.embeds.finders.oembed',
|
|
'providers': [youtube, vimeo, my_custom_provider],
|
|
}
|
|
]
|
|
|
|
Customising an individual provider
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
Multiple finders can be chained together. This can be used for customising the
|
|
configuration for one provider without affecting the others.
|
|
|
|
For example, this is how you can instruct Youtube to return videos in HTTPS
|
|
(which must be done explicitly for YouTube):
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: python
|
|
|
|
from wagtail.embeds.oembed_providers import youtube
|
|
|
|
|
|
WAGTAILEMBEDS_FINDERS = [
|
|
# Fetches YouTube videos but puts ``?scheme=https`` in the GET parameters
|
|
# when calling YouTube's oEmbed endpoint
|
|
{
|
|
'class': 'wagtail.embeds.finders.oembed',
|
|
'providers': [youtube],
|
|
'options': {'scheme': 'https'}
|
|
},
|
|
|
|
# Handles all other oEmbed providers the default way
|
|
{
|
|
'class': 'wagtail.embeds.finders.oembed',
|
|
}
|
|
]
|
|
|
|
.. topic:: How Wagtail uses multiple finders
|
|
|
|
If multiple providers can handle a URL (for example, a YouTube video was
|
|
requested using the configuration above), the topmost finder is chosen to
|
|
perform the request.
|
|
|
|
Wagtail will not try to run any other finder, even if the chosen one didn't
|
|
return an embed.
|
|
|
|
.. _Embedly:
|
|
|
|
Embed.ly
|
|
--------
|
|
|
|
`Embed.ly <https://embed.ly>`_ is a paid-for service that can also provide
|
|
embeds for sites that do not implement the oEmbed protocol.
|
|
|
|
They also provide some helpful features such as giving embeds a consistent look
|
|
and a common video playback API which is useful if your site allows videos to
|
|
be hosted on different providers and you need to implement custom controls for
|
|
them.
|
|
|
|
Wagtail has built in support for fetching embeds from Embed.ly. To use it, add
|
|
an embed finder to your ``WAGTAILEMBEDS_FINDERS`` setting that uses the
|
|
``wagtail.embeds.finders.oembed`` class and pass it your API key:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: python
|
|
|
|
WAGTAILEMBEDS_FINDERS = [
|
|
{
|
|
'class': 'wagtail.embeds.finders.embedly',
|
|
'key': 'YOUR EMBED.LY KEY HERE'
|
|
}
|
|
]
|
|
|
|
.. _custom_embed_finders:
|
|
|
|
Custom embed finder classes
|
|
---------------------------
|
|
|
|
For complete control, you can create a custom finder class.
|
|
|
|
Here's a stub finder class that could be used as a skeleton; please read the
|
|
docstrings for details of what each method does:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: python
|
|
|
|
from wagtail.embeds.finders.base import EmbedFinder
|
|
|
|
|
|
class ExampleFinder(EmbedFinder):
|
|
def __init__(self, **options):
|
|
pass
|
|
|
|
def accept(self, url):
|
|
"""
|
|
Returns True if this finder knows how to fetch an embed for the URL.
|
|
|
|
This should not have any side effects (no requests to external servers)
|
|
"""
|
|
pass
|
|
|
|
def find_embed(self, url, max_width=None):
|
|
"""
|
|
Takes a URL and max width and returns a dictionary of information about the
|
|
content to be used for embedding it on the site.
|
|
|
|
This is the part that may make requests to external APIs.
|
|
"""
|
|
# TODO: Perform the request
|
|
|
|
return {
|
|
'title': "Title of the content",
|
|
'author_name': "Author name",
|
|
'provider_name': "Provider name (eg. YouTube, Vimeo, etc)",
|
|
'type': "Either 'photo', 'video', 'link' or 'rich'",
|
|
'thumbnail_url': "URL to thumbnail image",
|
|
'width': width_in_pixels,
|
|
'height': height_in_pixels,
|
|
'html': "<h2>The Embed HTML</h2>,
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
Once you've implemented all of those methods, you just need to add it to your
|
|
``WAGTAILEMBEDS_FINDERS`` setting:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: python
|
|
|
|
WAGTAILEMBEDS_FINDERS = [
|
|
{
|
|
'class': 'path.to.your.finder.class.here',
|
|
# Any other options will be passed as kwargs to the __init__ method
|
|
}
|
|
]
|
|
|
|
The ``Embed`` model
|
|
===================
|
|
|
|
.. class:: wagtail.embeds.models.Embed
|
|
|
|
Embeds are fetched only once and stored in the database so subsequent requests
|
|
for an individual embed do not hit the embed finders again.
|
|
|
|
.. attribute:: url
|
|
|
|
(text)
|
|
|
|
The URL of the original content of this embed.
|
|
|
|
.. attribute:: max_width
|
|
|
|
(integer, nullable)
|
|
|
|
The max width that was requested.
|
|
|
|
.. attribute:: type
|
|
|
|
(text)
|
|
|
|
The type of the embed. This can be either 'video', 'photo', 'link' or 'rich'.
|
|
|
|
.. attribute:: html
|
|
|
|
(text)
|
|
|
|
The HTML content of the embed that should be placed on the page
|
|
|
|
.. attribute:: title
|
|
|
|
(text)
|
|
|
|
The title of the content that is being embedded.
|
|
|
|
.. attribute:: author_name
|
|
|
|
(text)
|
|
|
|
The author name of the content that is being embedded.
|
|
|
|
.. attribute:: provider_name
|
|
|
|
(text)
|
|
|
|
The provider name of the content that is being embedded.
|
|
|
|
For example: YouTube, Vimeo
|
|
|
|
.. attribute:: thumbnail_url
|
|
|
|
(text)
|
|
|
|
a URL to a thumbnail image of the content that is being embedded.
|
|
|
|
.. attribute:: width
|
|
|
|
(integer, nullable)
|
|
|
|
The width of the embed (images and videos only).
|
|
|
|
.. attribute:: height
|
|
|
|
(integer, nullable)
|
|
|
|
The height of the embed (images and videos only).
|
|
|
|
.. attribute:: last_updated
|
|
|
|
(datetime)
|
|
|
|
The Date/time when this embed was last fetched.
|
|
|
|
Deleting embeds
|
|
---------------
|
|
|
|
As long as your embeds configuration is not broken, deleting items in the
|
|
``Embed`` model should be perfectly safe to do. Wagtail will automatically
|
|
repopulate the records that are being used on the site.
|
|
|
|
You may want to do this if you've changed from oEmbed to Embedly or vice-versa
|
|
as the embed code they generate may be slightly different and lead to
|
|
inconsistency on your site.
