Screenshots

Add it in your root build.gradle at the end of repositories:

allprojects {
        repositories {
                ...
                maven { url 'https://jitpack.io' }
        }
}

Add the dependency

dependencies {
        implementation 'com.github.TalbotGooday:Android-Oembed-Video:Tag'
}

Work Flow

1. Create your OkHttpClient and add it to the VideoService.Builder

val okHttpClient = OkHttpClient.Builder()
	.connectTimeout(15, TimeUnit.SECONDS)
	.readTimeout(15, TimeUnit.SECONDS)
	.build()

val videoService = VideoService.build{
	with(this@MainActivity)
	httpClient(okHttpClient)
	enableCache(true)
	enableLog(true)
}

2. Get VideoPreviewModel

videoService.loadVideoPreview(
	url,
	onSuccess = { video ->
		//handle a video model
	},
	onError = { url, error ->
		//handle an error
	})

3. Enable/disable caching

val videoService = VideoService.build {
	enableCache(true)
}

4. Enable/disable logging

val videoService = VideoService.build {
	enableLog(BuildConfig.DEBUG)
}

Play Video from VideoPreviewModel

The BottomVideoController allows to run any oembed video in WebView.

val host = model.videoHosting
val linkToPlay = model.linkToPlay
val title = model.videoTitle
val initUrl = model.url

BottomVideoController.build(this) {
	setListener(object : BottomVideoController.Listener() {
		override fun openLinkIn(link: String) {
			openLink(link)
		}
		override fun copyLink(link: String) {
			copyLinkToClipboard(link)
		}
	})
	setHostText(host)
	setPlayLink(linkToPlay)
	setSize(model.width, model.height)
	setTitle(title)
	setVideoUrl(initUrl)
	setProgressView(TextView(this@MainActivity).apply { text = "Loading" })
	show()
}

How to add some other video hosting

1. Add the Gson library to your project
2. Create the Gson data class from the embed response of the video service. Make this class a subclass of VideoInfoModel, implement the toPreview function, and override it:

 override fun toPreview(url: String?, linkToPlay: String, hostingName: String, videoId: String): VideoPreviewModel {
        return VideoPreviewModel(url, linkToPlay, hostingName, videoId).apply {
            this.thumbnailUrl = this@UltimediaResponse.thumbnailUrl
            this.videoTitle = this@UltimediaResponse.authorName
            this.width = this@UltimediaResponse.width.toInt()
            this.height = this@UltimediaResponse.height.toInt()
        }
    }

3. Create a subclass of VideoInfoModel, implement members and override them:

class UltimediaVideoInfoModel: VideoInfoModel<UltimediaResponse>() {
	override val baseUrl: String
		get() = "https://www.ultimedia.com"
	//https://regex101.com/r/2AsrOc/1
	override val pattern: String
		get() = "(?:http[s]?:\\/\\/)?(?:www)?\\.?ultimedia\\.com\\/(?:deliver|default|api)\\/.*\\/([_a-zA-Z0-9]+)\\S*"
	override val idPattern: String
		get() = pattern //or some another video id search pattern
	override val type: Class<UltimediaResponse>
		get() = UltimediaResponse::class.java
	override val hostingName: String
		get() = "Ultimedia"

	override fun getInfoUrl(incomingUrl: String?): String? {
		return "$baseUrl/api/search/oembed?$FORMAT=$FORMAT_JSON&$URL=$incomingUrl"
	}

	override fun getPlayLink(videoId: String): String {
		return "https://www.ultimedia.com/deliver/generic/iframe/src/$videoId/"
	}
}

Note: By default, the index of the Regex group should be 1. If your idPattern does not fulfill this condition, then override the parseVideoId method:

override fun parseVideoId(url: String?): String? {
	url ?: return null
	return idPattern.toRegex().find(url)?.groups?.get(**someIndex**)?.value
}
