Vex - Parse any video URL Build Status

Vex is a PHP library to extract a video from any URL.

Supported Services

For each video-sharing website of the following list, a Platform class can identify a supported URL and extract the video data.

Installation

The recommended way to install Vex is through composer.

Just create a composer.json file for your project:

{
    "require": {
        "kphoen/vex": "1.1.*"
    }
}

And run these two commands to install it:

$ wget http://getcomposer.org/composer.phar
$ php composer.phar install

Now you can add the autoloader, and you will have access to the library:

<?php

require 'vendor/autoload.php';

If you don't use neither Composer nor a ClassLoader in your application, just require the provided autoloader:

<?php

require_once 'src/autoload.php';

You're done.

Usage

<?php

use Vex\Vex;

$http_adapter = new \Vex\HttpAdapter\BuzzHttpAdapter();
$platform = \Vex\Platform\RutubePlatform($adapter);
$vex = new Vex($platform);

$video = $vex->extract('https://rutube.ru/video/b5a392c180ddfe3e1ebded38f9f9dc52/');

// Show the video title
echo $video->getTitle();
// Shows the embedded video HTML
echo $video->getCode();
// Show the video link
echo $video->getLink();
// Show the video duration
echo $video->getDuration();
// Show the video thumbnail
echo $video->getThumb();


$url = $vex->reverse('<iframe width="640" height="360" src="http://rutube.ru/video/embed/6236741" frameborder="0" webkitAllowFullScreen mozallowfullscreen allowfullscreen scrolling="no"></iframe>');
// shows http://rutube.ru/video/9f4dc6bc2db6b6051ea07fb20234c6cc/
echo $url

Tests

To run unit tests, you'll need cURL and a set of dependencies you can install using Composer:

php composer.phar install --dev

Once installed, just launch the following command:

phpunit
