Embetty displays remote content like tweets or videos without compromising your privacy.
See it in action on our demo pages.
- Setup your embetty-server.
- Include the embetty lib into your HTML document.
- Insert an embed by using a custom tag (see embeds section below).
Example:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta data-embetty-server="/path/to/embetty-server">
<script async src="embetty.js"></script>
</head>
<body>
<embetty-tweet status="1166685910030790662"></embetty-tweet>
</body>
</html>Embetty needs a server component that you need to run on your infrastructure. Configure the server URL for embetty using a <meta data-embetty-server> tag:
<head>
<meta data-embetty-server="/path/to/embetty-server">
</head>There are three options.
- Download an Embetty archive from the releases page. Make
embetty.jsavailable on your site. - Use Embetty in your npm project:
yarn add @heise/embettyornpm install @heise/embetty --save. Then import embetty into your main script (i.e.import '@heise/embetty'). - Clone this repository and build
./dist/embetty.js:$ git clone https://github.com/heiseonline/embetty $ cd embetty $ yarn $ yarn build
Currently, tweets and various video platforms are supported.
Use the status attribute to embed a tweet with its tweet ID. Example:
<embetty-tweet status="950371792874557440"></embetty-tweet>Use the type attribute with a value of facebook, vimeo or youtube. Set the video-id attribute to the video ID.
<embetty-video type="facebook" video-id="10156049485672318"></embetty-video>For videos of type vimeo or youtube, it's also possible to set a start-at attribute with a value of time in seconds to start the video at a specific timecode.
<embetty-video type="youtube" start-at="96" video-id="3L4fHrIJ3A4"></embetty-video>
<embetty-video type="vimeo" start-at="96" video-id="223099532"></embetty-video>Embetty triggers the following events:
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
initialized |
The Embetty embed will enter the viewport after this has been triggered. |
activated |
The Embetty video embed has been replaced with an iframe containing the original video player. The content of the iframe may still be loading. |
Example code:
document.querySelector('embetty-tweet').addEventistener('initialized', function(e) { ... })- Clone this repository.
yarn- export the
TWITTER_tokens mentioned in https://github.com/heiseonline/embetty-server yarn test
The Embetty server component does not proxy video data. This means that the tracking protection becomes ineffective after the play button has been clicked.
