Using a CDN

If your environment supports ESM or direct URL imports, you can pull from a CDN:

unpkg:

import { getYouTubeIdFromUrl } from "https://www.unpkg.com/@social-embed/lib?module";

skypack:

import { getYouTubeIdFromUrl } from "https://cdn.skypack.dev/@social-embed/lib";

Usage

Below is a simple TypeScript example demonstrating some core functions:

import {
  convertUrlToEmbedUrl,
  getYouTubeIdFromUrl,
  getDailyMotionIdFromUrl,
  getDailyMotionEmbedFromId,
} from "@social-embed/lib";

// 1. Convert any recognized media URL into its embeddable form
console.log(
  convertUrlToEmbedUrl("https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bd8_vO5zrjo"),
);
// Output: "https://www.youtube.com/embed/Bd8_vO5zrjo"

// 2. Extract YouTube video ID
console.log(getYouTubeIdFromUrl("https://youtu.be/Bd8_vO5zrjo"));
// Output: "Bd8_vO5zrjo"

// 3. DailyMotion usage
console.log(
  getDailyMotionIdFromUrl("https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x7znrd0"),
);
// Output: "x7znrd0"
