This plugin allows you to embed videos on the documentation pages using a simple Markdown syntax.

Install the package with pip:

$ pip install ffc-mkdocs-video

Enable the plugin in the mkdocs.yml file:

    - ffc-mkdocs-video

See how to use MkDocs Plugins

To add a video to the final documentation page, you need to use the Markdown syntax for images with a specific name (hereinafter marker).

See how to use Markdown syntax

Example:

content folder structure

├── content
|   ├── ...
│   ├── video.md
│   └── videos
│       └── costa_rica.mp4
└── mkdocs.yml

video.md

By default, the string type:video is used as a marker in the Markdown syntax.

You can change this value by adding the following lines to your mkdocs.yml:

plugins:
  - ffc-mkdocs-video:
      mark: "custom-marker"

Now you can use this marker in the Markdown syntax:

![custom-marker](https://www.youtube.com/embed/LXb3EKWsInQ)

By default, the following CSS styles are used for the <iframe> tag that is inserted into the final page:

position: relative;
width: 100%;
height: 22.172vw;

You can change the style by adding the following lines to your mkdocs.yml:

plugins:
  - ffc-mkdocs-video:
      css_style:
        weight: "100%"
        height: "22.172vw"
        ...

By default, the video autoplay is deactivated, you can enable the autoplay by adding the following lines to your mkdocs.yml:

plugins:
  - ffc-mkdocs-video:
      auto_play: "autoplay"
      ...
