Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

Oembed behavior for Blacklight

Readme

Blacklight::Oembed

Gem Version

blacklight-oembed adds OEmbed displays for Blacklight's search results views.

Installation

Add this line to your Blacklight application's Gemfile:

gem 'blacklight-oembed'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install blacklight-oembed

Usage

Run the blacklight-oembed generator:

$ rails g blacklight_oembed:install

The generator will provide reasonable defaults and inject oembed configuration into your CatalogController.

In your solr index, you need a field containing the URL to an oembeddable object. blacklight-oembed will use that URL to render the oembed viewer on your catalog#show page. The name of the field can be configured in your Blacklight configuration:

# app/controllers/catalog_controller
class CatalogController
...
    configure_blacklight do |config|
        # these are generated into your configuration by the install generator.
        config.show.oembed_field = :oembed_url_ssm
        config.show.partials.insert(1, :oembed)
    end
...
end

In an initializer, you may want to register additional oembed providers for the ruby-oembed, e.g.:

# config/initializers/oembed_providers
require 'oembed'

OEmbed::providers.register_all

purl_provider = OEmbed::Provider.new("http://purl.stanford.edu/embed.{format}?&hide_title=true")
purl_provider << "http://purl.stanford.edu/*"
OEmbed::Providers.register(purl_provider)

You need a solr field containing a URL to an embeddable object.

Additional configurations

Blacklight OEmbed allows for more configurations. In an initializer, you can add additional params that will be passed through to an OEmbed provider.

# config/initializers/blacklight_oembed.rb
Blacklight::Oembed::Engine.config.additional_params = [:canvas_index]
