Support Vimeo Event Streams 7.x

Created on 11 January 2021, almost 4 years ago

Updated 15 October 2024, 2 months ago

Problem/Motivation

Vimeo has livestream support and the URLs for them look like:
https://vimeo.com/event/439566/e415b7692a.

and give the following as an embed code:
<iframe src="https://vimeo.com/event/439566/embed/e415b7692a" width="640" height="360" frameborder="0" allow="autoplay; fullscreen" allowfullscreen></iframe>

video_embed_filed doesn't seem to recognize this type of URL and thus falls back to displaying the original link instead of embedding.

Steps to reproduce

Proposed resolution

Create a patch in video_embed_field.module to handle this type of embed.

I think creating a new provider for Vimeo Event might be a better solution here as there would be no need to modify the existing Vimeo provider, and certainly not the ProviderPluginBase.

This also comes with the added benefit of allowing users to toggle event functionality.

Updated regex in patch to support urls such as https://vimeo.com/event/xxxxxxx/embed/interaction

Updated patch to append "action" on end of the input url to the end of the iframe src.
For example if url ends with /interaction this is kept.
