This is a sphinx extension for using Embedly.
This extension enables you to embed anything that is supported by Embedly , e.g.:
.. embedly:: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M_eYSuPKP3Y
pip install sphinxcontrib-embedly
To enable this extension in Sphinx, add sphinxcontrib.embedly
module to
the extensions
option in the conf.py
file.
import os, sys # Path to the folder where sphinxcontrib/embedly.py is # NOTE: not needed if the package is installed in traditional way # using setup.py, easy_install or pip sys.path.append(os.path.abspath('/path/to/sphinxcontrib.embedly')) # Enabled extensions extensions = ['sphinxcontrib.embedly']
In case you use pure docutils projects such as Pelican feel free to add the following somewhere to your code:
from sphinxcontrib.embedly import setup_docutils setup_docutils()
Then set the required configuration variable embedly_key
in your
conf.py
by signing up for for the free account on Embedly for the
Embed product. E.g.:
embedly_key = '<api-key-copied-from-your-account-page>'
There is also one optional configuration variable, the embedly_timeout
that specifies the default timeout used when fetching the embed code from
Embedly (defaults to 60 seconds). E.g.:
embedly_timeout = 120
This directive fetches the embed code for the given URL and adds it into the generated document.
Examples:
.. embedly:: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M_eYSuPKP3Y
You can specify various options for the embedding as seen above.

.. embedly:: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M_eYSuPKP3Y :width: 450 :autoplay: :frame:
