carta-plugin-video

This plugin adds ability to render online video from Youtube or Vimeo.

Inspired by markdown-it-video

Installation

npm i carta-plugin-video

Setup

Styles

Import the default theme, or create you own:

import 'carta-plugin-video/default.css';

Note that the align function needs the default css to work properly.

For custom styles, this is an example of the generated HTML:

<div class="video-container center">
	<iframe
		width="640"
		height="390"
		src="<the URL>"
		frameborder="0"
		allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture"
		allowfullscreen>
	</iframe>
</div>

Extension

<script>
	import { Carta, CartaEditor } from 'carta-md';
	import { video } from 'carta-plugin-video';
	import 'carta-plugin-video/default.css';

	const carta = new Carta({
		extensions: [
			video({
				// Optional options
			}),
		],
	});
</script>

<CartaEditor {carta} />
