Any other oEmbed provider uses embedly service.

How to manage providers

‘greedy’ option let you activate a fallback service to not natively supported services, by default the service used is oohembed.

allowed providers:

$(".oembed").oembed(null, { allowedProviders: ["flickr", "youtube"] });

custom providers:

$(".oembed").oembed(null, {
    greedy: false,
    customProviders: [{
        "name": "streetfire.net",
        "urlschemes": ["streetfire\\.net\/video\/.*"],
        "apiendpoint": "http://api.embed.ly/v1/api/oembed?"
    }]
});

disallowed providers:

$(".oembed").oembed(null, { disallowedProviders: ["flickr", "youtube"] });

default oembed provider:

$(".oembed").oembed(null, {defaultOEmbedProvider: "embed.ly"});

embeded method

append:

$(".oembed").oembed(null, {embedMethod: "append"});

It append to the .oembed container the result with a container classified:

<a href="..." class="oembed">...</a>
<div class="oembed-container oembed-container-Vimeo">...</div>

fill:

$(".oembed").oembed(null, {embedMethod: "fill"});

It fill the link with the results:

<a href="..." class="oembed">
  <div>...</div>
</a>

replace:

$(".oembed").oembed(null, {embedMethod: "replace"});

It replaces the link with the html snippet

manage size

You can add a size constraint to the html snippet. You can set maxWidth and/or maxHeight:

$(".oembed").oembed(null, {
        maxWidth: 400,
        maxHeight: 300 });
});
