# Jekyll Youtube

This Jekyll pluging provides a tag that takes a Youtube URL and generates a (responsive) html snippet to embed the video into your site.

## Installation

Add this line to your Gemfile:

```ruby
group :jekyll_plugins do
gem "jekyll-youtube"
end
```

And then execute:

$ bundle

Alternatively install the gem yourself as:

$ gem install jekyll-youtube

and put this in your ``_config.yml``

```yaml
plugins: [jekyll-youtube]
# This will require each of these gems automatically.
```

## Usage

```
{% youtube "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ho8-vK0L1_8" %}
```
or using variables/front matter

```
{% youtube page.youtubeurl %}
```

## Result

By default the plugin will output the following code

```markup

.embed-container {
position: relative;
padding-bottom: 56.25%;
height: 0;
overflow: hidden;
max-width: 100%;
}
.embed-container iframe,
.embed-container object,
.embed-container embed {
position: absolute;
top: 0;
left: 0;
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
}




```

You can specify your own snippet by creating a partial ``_includes/youtube.html``. Inside that partial the Youtube ID is available as ``{{ youtube_id }}``.
