Usage

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

# Video example

Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet

![type:video](https://www.youtube.com/embed/LXb3EKWsInQ)

<mkdocs-url>/video

You can also use relative paths for videos stored together with your content

![type:video](./videos/costa_rica.mp4)

Configuration

Marker

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

Now you can use this marker in the Markdown syntax:

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

Style

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:
  - mkdocs-video:
      css_style:
        width: "100%"
        height: "22.172vw"
        ...

Tag <video>

By default, the <iframe> tag will be used to display the video in the final page, but in some cases you may need to use <video> tag instead. You can use it by adding the following lines to your mkdocs.yml:

plugins:
  - mkdocs-video:
      is_video: True
      ...

Video type

This parameter will only work with the <video> tag (is_video: True)

You can specify the MIME type of the video (default: mp4) resource by adding the following lines to your mkdocs.yml:

plugins:
  - mkdocs-video:
      is_video: True
      video_type: ogg
      ...

Video autoplay

This parameter will only work with the <video> tag (is_video: True)

You can specify whether the video should be played automatically (default: False) or not by adding the following lines to your mkdocs.yml:

plugins:
  - mkdocs-video:
      is_video: True
      video_autoplay: True
      ...

The operation of this parameter may be affected by browser settings or video provider configuration
