python-markdown-flex-video's Introduction

A Responsive Video Extension for Python-Markdown

Supports the responsive embedding of web videos URLs (currently only YouTube and Vimeo? are supported) using the flex-video method. Flex-video provides an

intrinsic ratio that will properly scale your video on any device. Currently

div.flex-video is supported by zurb.foundation but you can use the included CSS with other frameworks such as twitter-bootstrap. Currently, if the URL to an youtube video is found in the markdown text submitted it isn't enclosed in parenthesis then the URL will be swapped with a embedded youtube video.
