OEmbed consumer library for Python with automatic discovery of producers.
PyEmbed allows you to easily embed content on your website from a wide variety of producers (including Flickr, Twitter and YouTube). Unlike many OEmbed consumers, you don't need to configure each producer that you want to use - PyEmbed discovers the configuration automatically.
You just need to provide the URL, and PyEmbed will generate a block of HTML, ready for you to include in your page:
>>> from pyembed.core import PyEmbed
>>> html = PyEmbed().embed('http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9bZkp7q19f0')
<iframe width="480" height="270" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/9bZkp7q19f0?feature=oembed" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>
There are plugins for embedding content into Markdown and reStructuredText documents, and for customizing embeddings with Jinja2 and Mustache templates. For more information, see the PyEmbed website.
PyEmbed has been tested with Python 2.7 and 3.3.
PyEmbed can be installed using pip:
pip install pyembed
