Usage

ES2015+ / Webpack

// All plugins
import urlParser from "js-video-url-parser";

// Choose individual plugins
import urlParser from "js-video-url-parser/lib/base";
import "js-video-url-parser/lib/provider/canalplus';
import "js-video-url-parser/lib/provider/coub';
import "js-video-url-parser/lib/provider/dailymotion';
import "js-video-url-parser/lib/provider/twitch';
import "js-video-url-parser/lib/provider/vimeo';
import "js-video-url-parser/lib/provider/wistia';
import "js-video-url-parser/lib/provider/youku';
import "js-video-url-parser/lib/provider/youtube';

Parsing

Parsing a url will return a videoInfo object with all the information

> urlParser.parse('http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HRb7B9fPhfA')
{ mediaType: 'video',
  id: 'HRb7B9fPhfA',
  provider: 'youtube' }

> urlParser.parse('https://vimeo.com/97276391')
{ mediaType: 'video',
  id: '97276391',
  provider: 'vimeo' }

Any url parameters expect for ids will be saved in the params object. Some providers have special parameters for example the start parameter which dictates at how many seconds the video starts. Special parameters can be found in the different descriptions for the providers.

> urlParser.parse('https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6xLcSTDeB7A&index=25&list=PL46F0A159EC02DF82&t=1m40')
{
  provider: 'youtube',
  id: 'yQaAGmHNn9s',
  list: 'PL46F0A159EC02DF82',
  mediaType: 'video',
  params: {
    start: 100,
    index: '25'
  }
}

Parsing an incorrect url will return undefined

> urlParser.parse('https://www.youuutube.com/watch?v=97276391')
undefined

Url Creation

The videoInfo objects can be turned back into urls with the .create function. The required parameter for this is the videoInfo object itself. Optional ones are the format of the url and the url parameters that should be added. Each provider has it's own default format.

> urlParser.create({
    videoInfo: {
      provider: 'youtube',
      id: 'HRb7B9fPhfA',
      mediaType: 'video'
    },
    format: 'long',
    params: {
      foo: 'bar'
    }
  })
'https://www.youtube.com/watch?foo=bar&v=HRb7B9fPhfA'

Parsing and creating can also be chained together to clean up an url for example. If you still want to reuse the generated parameters object you can use the keyword 'internal' as params.

> urlParser.create({
  videoInfo: urlParser.parse('https://youtube.com/watch?foo=bar&v=HRb7B9fPhfA')
})
'https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HRb7B9fPhfA'

> urlParser.create({
  videoInfo: urlParser.parse('https://youtube.com/watch?foo=bar&v=HRb7B9fPhfA'),
  params: 'internal'
})
'https://www.youtube.com/watch?foo=bar&v=HRb7B9fPhfA'

Adding a provider

Add a new file in the lib/provider/ directory with the template found here and also add it to index.js.
Add some tests in lib/provider/ with the template found here.

Run npm run test to create the parser and test your plugin.

Vimeo

Supported media types:

'video': Regular videos

Supported url formats:

'long'(default): Regular urls.
'embed': Embedded urls.
'image': Thumbnail image urls.

Creating urls with different media types:

mediaType/formats	long	embed	image
video	✓	✓	✓

Special parameters:

'params.start': The number where the video should begin in seconds.
'params.imageWidth': For 'image' format urls. Vimeo will produce a scaled image based on the width. The default image size when no width is specified depends on the video source.
'params.imageHeight': For 'image' format urls. Can only be set in combination with 'imageWidth'. Vimeo will produce a cropped image with the 2 parameters.
'params.imageExtension': For 'image' format urls. Contains the extension e.g. '.png', '.jpg', '.webp'. Vimeo uses '.webp' by default which will be used when no format is specified. It can also be set to an empty string to generate urls with no extension.
