FieldtypeOembed

What it does

Store, collect and update oembed data from external sources. This module uses the great PHP Library Essence by Félix Girault and adds some processwire magic. It is inspired by Ryan's example module FieldtypeEvents and the TextformatterOEmbed module by felixwahner. Thanks!

Features

• Simple embedding of content via oembed endpoints and opengraph crawling
• Backend preview
• Searching in oembed data with $pages->find()
• Autoupdate with lazycron
• Support for ProcessGraphQL with the additional module GraphQLFieldtypeOembed
• Filter result with hooks

Install

1. Copy the files for this module to /site/modules/FieldtypeOembed/
2. Execute the following command in the /site/modules/FieldtypeOembed/ directory.

   composer install

3. In admin: Modules > Refresh. Install Fieldtype > Oembed.

How to add custom providers (Essence Git)

{
   "getty": {
      "class": "OEmbed",
      "filter": "~gty\\.im/.+~i",
      "endpoint": "http://embed.gettyimages.com/oembed?url=:url"
   },
   "neuerituale": {
      "class": "OpenGraph",
      "filter": "~neuerituale\\.com.?~i"
   },
   "tiktok": {
      "class": "OEmbed",

      "endpoint": "https://www.tiktok.com/oembed?url=:url"
   },
   "InstagramOEmbed": {
      "class": "OEmbed",

Field settings

Fields > embed > Details The FieldtypeOembed extends the FieldtypeURL (core). In addition to these settings, you can also set the cache time for the oembed data. The lazycron will update the data.

Field preview

API

Returns the Oembed object (WireData)

/** @var \ProcessWire\Oembed */
$page->embed

Check emptiness

/** @var boolean **/
$page->embed->empty

Render

/** @var string return the html from oembed result */
"$page->embed"
$page->embed->html

Result Hooks

If you want to filter or change the results of the oembed provider, use the hookable methods e.g. ___filterProps().

In this example we want to get the high resolution version of the thumbnail of a YouTube video.

// some where in your ready.php
// Replace hqdefault preview thumbnail with maxresdefault

$this->addHook('FieldtypeOembed::filterProps', function (HookEvent $event) {
   $propsArray = $event->arguments(0);
   if(is_array($propsArray) && $propsArray['providerName'] === 'YouTube') {
      $maxResultUrl = str_replace('/hqdefault.jpg', '/maxresdefault.jpg', $propsArray['thumbnailUrl']);
      // test max result url
      if((new WireHttp())->status($maxResultUrl) === 200) $propsArray['thumbnailUrl'] = $maxResultUrl;
      $event->return = $propsArray;
   }
});

The Oembed object

// print_r($page->embed);

            [thumbnailHeight] => 360
        )
)

Find pages

$pages->find('embed.providerName=YouTube');
$pages->find('embed.width>=200');
