Embera - PHP Oembed consumer library
Embera is an Oembed consumer library written in PHP. It takes urls from a text and queries the matching service for information about the media and embeds the resulting html. It supports +150 sites, such as Youtube, Twitter, Livestream, Dailymotion, Instagram, Vimeo and many many more.
Installation

$ composer require mpratt/embera:~2.0Standalone Installation (without Composer)
Download the latest release or clone this repository and include the Àutoloader.php file inside the Embera/src directory.
require '....../Autoloader.php';
use Embera\Embera;
$embera = new Embera();Requirements
- PHP >= 7.0 (It should work on 5.6)
- Curl or allow_url_fopen should be enabled
Basic Usage
The most common or basic example is this one:
use Embera\Embera;
$embera = new Embera();
echo $embera->autoEmbed('Hi! Have you seen this video? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J---aiyznGQ Its the best!');The last example returns something like the following text:
Hi! Have you seen this video?
<iframe
width="459"
height="344"
src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/J---aiyznGQ?feature=oembed"
frameborder="0"
allow="accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture"
allowfullscreen
></iframe>
Its the best!You can also inspect urls for their oembed data:
use Embera\Embera;
$embera = new Embera();
print_r($embera->getUrlData([
'https://vimeo.com/374131624',
'https://www.flickr.com/photos/bees/8597283706/in/photostream',
]));That will return something like this

)The response data depends on the provider, each of them returns information about the consulted
media, however this library always tries to provide an embeddable html key that can be used to
embed the information on a html document.
This library has fake responses / Offline support which is a way of getting the html embeddable code without the need of querying the oembed provider. It also has caching support, provider collections, responsive embeds and many other features. You can find out more by reading the documentation below.

Migrating from version >= 1.9.x
The folder structure has changed, the library is now in the src folder and
you can find an autoloader there if you are not using composer.
The configuration array has changed in order to make it simpler. Take a look at the Usage/Configuration instructions to update it.
The other major change is that the inspectUrlInfo() method is now called getUrlData().
The HtmlFormatter class does not exist anymore since the library allows now other type
of templating.
Updating should be fairly easy, check the documentation.
