@administrators can we install nodebb-plugin-iframely or similar?
There is an iframely plug-in. Looks like you have to hook that up to iframely running somewhere. I got a developer API key, good for 1,000 hits per month. That's not appropriate for here. I haven't looked into other pricing options.
There is apparently an open source version of their parser, though:
GitHub - itteco/iframely: oEmbed proxy. Supports over 1800 domains via custom parsers, oEmbed, Twitter Cards and Open Graph
oEmbed proxy. Supports over 1800 domains via custom parsers, oEmbed, Twitter Cards and Open Graph - itteco/iframely
Not sure if that's a reasonable alternative.
-
@boomzilla No idea on the pricing / free version stuff, but iframely seemed to work well when I tested it: it sure parsed stuff that's in the spec better than Discourse (as in: Discourse completely ignored it)
-

FWIW that's basically 1000 oneboxes posted. Not sure if that changes the calculation, but a post load doesn't count as an API call.
-
@ben_lubar said:
it looks like the API counts a "hit" as a unique URL once per hour. So 1000 hits per month is approximately 1.3 URLs.
-
@Onyx Pricing here:
Pricing - Iframely
Simple API gives you responsive embed codes for videos, photos, slideshows and more. YouTube, Vimeo, Vine, Instagram, Twitter and over 1900 others. Save a many-year or two on your embeds.
$19 - $199 per month is the range. I have no idea what we'd generate around here in terms of how they count hits.
-
I followed the setup stuff here:
iframely/docs/SETUP.md at main · itteco/iframely
oEmbed proxy. Supports over 1800 domains via custom parsers, oEmbed, Twitter Cards and Open Graph - itteco/iframely
Basically, I have it running in the same VM as my NodeBB dev instance. I just changed the plugin's base url to
http://boomzillasvm:8061/iframelyand only configured thebaseAppUrlin theconfig.local.jsand it seems to work.
-
Wow, this is "interesting." The results look different on chrome vs firefox. I've only tried youtube and twitter so far. The sizes of the embedded videos aren't static.
On chrome, a tweet with an image shows the image. Not on FF.
-
@boomzilla pics or it didn't happen
-
@boomzilla maybe same-origin stuff gets handled differently?

-
@boomzilla ok, how's that?
-
Yeah, 1k hits a month may be a bit too low. NodeBB does cache the results, so repeated calls aren't made.
-
That... is huge.
-
Unfortunately, the link to https://github.com/itteco/iframely/blob/master/docs/SETUP.md turns into a link to https://what.thedailywtf.com/topic/19305/iframely/15 ... not sure what all that's about. Otherwise, huge

Wait, so iFramely one-boxes any link? Shouldn't it only do links that start on a new line?
Am I missing something here????

https://github.com/NodeBB/nodebb-plugin-iframely/pull/9- check to see if that patch is integrated into our current version of iframely @ben_lubar.
-
@sloosecannon It's at
static/templates/partials/iframely-link-title.tpl:3- make sure the line reads<a href="{embed.meta.canonical}" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">
and not
<a href="{embed.canonical.meta}" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">
-
@sloosecannon yep, it has that correctly. must be something else :/
-
@ben_lubar Hmm.
Any way to check what the iframely service is feeding back? Maybe the url is getting lost somewhere there...

I'd look there...
-
@sloosecannon Uh, I hate to burst your bubble, but...
That sure looks like the canonical is inside the meta to me.
-
@ben_lubar said:

It is, but "url" is not in the parent object.
I don't see why that would change anything, but there's a difference in the response for some reason

So, reading
https://iframely.com/docs/meta- they should probably not be usingmeta.canonical, because the docs say anything inmetais a "may include". They really should be usingurlon the main object. Which makes me wonder why our setup doesn't send anything inurl

Oh... that'll do it
-
@sloosecannon I think I'll just change that one template to use the canonical url and call it a day.
-
@ben_lubar Yeah. Something should probably be done about that in the future but that's the easiest and cleanest fix...
-
As an aside, this seems to break the scroll-to functionality, as all the frames change size once they load and screw up the end position...
-
@Tsaukpaetra urgh... hello Jellypotato.
Should we file a bug on the iframely plugin GitHub?
-
@sloosecannon said:

Is there a way to re-trigger the scroll-to event from a plugin's actions? Maybe!

I was thinking change the post to have template HTML with the size of the embed... but that works too

@Buddy found a bug:
This url
Which is a link tohttps://productforums.google.com/forum/m/#!topic/youtube/6gXSaGA3xD4
gets oneboxed to
https://productforums.google.com/forum/m/It originally occured here: https://what.thedailywtf.com/topic/19323/youtube-cannot-into-enter/1
-
@aliceif Yay for hash fragments!
-
Twitch.tv streams should never get oneboxed.
-
@boomzilla Ok, it's wrong and broken and is causing people to unwittingly DDOS YouTube and get themselves banned as spammers.
Who the fuck installed this? Turn it off.
-
@boomzilla Good sample tweet you picked, but this plugin has a lot of HUGE bugs that need fixed BEFORE we install it.
-
@aliceif done.
-
@ben_lubar If you're disabling shit, you should disable YouTube until the preview window DDoS is fixed.
And feel shame that you didn't notice it while making your test posting above.
-
@blakeyrat I've blacklisted youtube.com, www.youtube.com and youtu.be.
-
@aliceif Why not? My guess is that the UX for those is still broken and they autoplay on embed?
