Has Vimeo Video

Validate a Vimeo URL attribute in Active Record, and retrieve access to the video's data through Vimeo API.

Installation

Add to your Gemfile and run the bundle command to install it.

gem "has_vimeo_video"

Requires Ruby 1.9.2 or later, and Rails 3.0.0 or later.

Usage

Call has_vimeo_video in an ActiveRecord class and pass the name of the attribute that will contain the URL for the video on Vimeo, e.g. http://vimeo.com/1234567890.

class Post < ActiveRecord::Base
  has_vimeo_video :video_url
end

This will automatically validate the format of the URL to match Vimeo's, and will add a vimeo object to your model, which will contain the following methods:

  • info will give you access to a hash with the parsed response from Vimeo API

  • id will parse the id of the video from the URL (no API requests here)

  • embed_url will return a URL ready for embedding your video (no API requests as well)

  • thumbnail will return the URL for the large thumbnail from Vimeo API (the same as info['thumbnail_large'])

    post = Post.create video_url: 'http://www.vimeo.com/32733074'
post.vimeo.info # {"id"=>32733074, "title"=>"Belo Monte, Anúncio de uma Guerra (CATARSE)", "description"=>"Mais do que um filme, queremos que esse documentário seja um ato político da sociedade, uma luta pelo acesso à informação e pelo direito de participar das decisões do país.<br />\n<br />\nEntre em http://catarse.me/pt/projects/459-belo-monte-anuncio-de-uma-guerra, assista o vídeo e apoie essa causa.", "url"=>"http://vimeo.com/32733074", "upload_date"=>"2011-11-27 06:49:45", "mobile_url"=>"http://vimeo.com/m/32733074", "thumbnail_small"=>"http://b.vimeocdn.com/ts/221/819/221819626_100.jpg", "thumbnail_medium"=>"http://b.vimeocdn.com/ts/221/819/221819626_200.jpg", "thumbnail_large"=>"http://b.vimeocdn.com/ts/221/819/221819626_640.jpg", "user_name"=>"André Vilela D'Elia", "user_url"=>"http://vimeo.com/cinedelia", "user_portrait_small"=>"http://b.vimeocdn.com/ps/283/288/2832886_30.jpg", "user_portrait_medium"=>"http://b.vimeocdn.com/ps/283/288/2832886_75.jpg", "user_portrait_large"=>"http://b.vimeocdn.com/ps/283/288/2832886_100.jpg", "user_portrait_huge"=>"http://b.vimeocdn.com/ps/283/288/2832886_300.jpg", "stats_number_of_likes"=>221, "stats_number_of_plays"=>107330, "stats_number_of_comments"=>49, "duration"=>661, "width"=>640, "height"=>360, "tags"=>"belo, monte, anúncio, cinedelia, gota, guerra, catarse, indigenas, xingu, rio, river, raoni, kayapo, vivo, eletro, norte, felicio, pontes, pare, amazonia", "embed_privacy"=>"anywhere"}
