fluidvids.js Build Status

Fluidvids is a 1KB standalone module that provides a fluid solution for video embeds. Fluidvids has the ability for custom players to be added as well as support for dynamically injected (XHR/Ajax/createElement) videos.

Live demo of fluidvids.

Methods

init()

Pass in your configuration. That's it.

fluidvids.init({
  selector: ['iframe', 'object'], // runs querySelectorAll()
  players: ['www.youtube.com', 'player.vimeo.com'] // players to support
});

selector

Type: Array Default: ['iframe']

Custom selector(s) that fluidvids will search for in the DOM and make fluid.

players

Type: Array Default: ['www.youtube.com', 'player.vimeo.com']

Internally constructs a strict RegExp which tells fluidvids which videos from specific domains to make fluid. This avoids any unwanted videos being parsed and adds developer flexibility.

render()

Provides dynamic video support. Using render() should only be done when you want to requery the DOM and look for newly added videos, such as document.createElement('iframe');. Fluidvids uses internal object caching to lookup init() configuration, so it's lightning fast.

// run after dynamic elements have been injected
// you'll need to run this each time you need it
fluidvids.render();

Installing with Bower

Use the repository hook:

bower install https://github.com/toddmotto/fluidvids.git

Installing with browserify

Use the repository hook:

npm install toddmotto/fluidvids

Then require fluidvids in your file:

// Note that it is called as a function
var fluidvids = require('fluidvids.js')();

Manual installation

Ensure you're using the files from the dist directory (contains compiled production-ready code). Ensure you place the script before the closing </body> tag.

<body>
  <!-- html above -->
  <script src="dist/fluidvids.js"></script>
  <script>
  // fluidvids module available
  </script>
</body>
