django-embed-video 1.3

Documentation

Documentation is here: http://django-embed-video.rtfd.org/

Quick start

1. Install django-embed-video:

   pip install django-embed-video

   or from sources

   pip install git+https://github.com/jazzband/django-embed-video

2. Add embed_video to INSTALLED_APPS in your Django settings.

3. If you want to detect HTTP/S in template tags, you have to set request context processor in settings.TEMPLATES:

   TEMPLATES = [
       {
           'BACKEND': 'django.template.backends.django.DjangoTemplates',
           # ...
           'OPTIONS': {
               'context_processors': [
                   # ...
                   'django.template.context_processors.request',
               ],
           },
       },
   ]

4. Usage of template tags:

   {% load embed_video_tags %}
   
   <!-- The video tag: -->
   {% video item.video as my_video %}
     URL: {{ my_video.url }}
     Thumbnail: {{ my_video.thumbnail }}
     Backend: {{ my_video.backend }}
   
     {% video my_video "large" %}
   {% endvideo %}
   
   <!-- Or embed shortcut: -->
   {% video my_video '800x600' %}

5. Usage of model fields

   from django.db import models
   from embed_video.fields import EmbedVideoField
   
   class Item(models.Model):
       video = EmbedVideoField()  # same like models.URLField()
