Jekyll Youtube

This Jekyll pluging provides a tag that takes a Youtube URL and generates a (responsive) html snippet to embed the video into your site.

Installation

Add this line to your Gemfile:

group :jekyll_plugins do
  gem "jekyll-youtube"
end

And then execute:

$ bundle

Alternatively install the gem yourself as:

$ gem install jekyll-youtube

and put this in your _config.yml

plugins: [jekyll-youtube]
 # This will require each of these gems automatically.

Usage

 {% youtube "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ho8-vK0L1_8" %}

or using variables/front matter

{% youtube page.youtubeurl %}

Result

By default the plugin will output the following code

<style>
.embed-container {
  position: relative;
  padding-bottom: 56.25%;
  height: 0;
  overflow: hidden;
  max-width: 100%;
}
.embed-container iframe,
.embed-container object,
.embed-container embed {
  position: absolute;
  top: 0;
  left: 0;
  width: 100%;
  height: 100%;
}
</style>
<div class='embed-container'>
  <iframe title="YouTube video player" width="640" height="390" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/ho8-vK0L1_8" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>
</div>

You can specify your own snippet by creating a partial _includes/youtube.html. Inside that partial the Youtube ID is available as {{ youtube_id }}.
