About

This Jekyll plugin uses Twitter Bootstrap's CSS to embed responsive YouTube videos in a post or page using a Liquid tag:

{% youtube <YOUTUBE VIDEO ID> %}

Dependencies

The Jekyll post or page must include the Bootstrap stylesheet.

Usage:

  1. Copy the responsive-youtube-jekyll-tag.rb file into your Jekyll _plugins folder
  2. Add the youtube tag with a YouTube video ID where you want to embed the video

Example

To embed the video with the link https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tnq2gwBhvCc use the following tag:

{% youtube tnq2gwBhvCc %}

tnq2gwBhvCc is the YouTube video ID.

This tag will insert the following HTML and Bootstrap CSS classes into the page:

<div class="embed-responsive embed-responsive-16by9">
  <iframe class="embed-responsive-item" width="560" height="315"
    src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/tnq2gwBhvCc" frameborder="0"
    allowfullscreen=""></iframe>
