Templating the Embed field

The Embed field will let content authors paste an oEmbed supported service resource URL (YouTube, Vimeo, Soundcloud, etc.), and add the embeded content to your website.

Display as HTML

Here's an example of how to integrate the Embed field into your templates using the as_html method.

<%= @document["page.embed"].as_html.html_safe %>

Get the Embed type

The following shows how to retrieve the Embed type from an Embed field.

@document["page.embed"].embed_type
# For example this might return: video

Get the Embed provider

The following shows how to retrieve the Embed provider from an Embed field.

@document["page.embed"].provider
# For example, this might return: YouTube

Get the Embed JSON data

You can also retrieve the JSON object that contains all the information about the Embed object.

The o_embed_json method will return the JSON data.

@document["page.embed"].o_embed_json

Here's what a typical Embed JSON object would look like.
