Here is how we can use oembed-parser
in async/await style:
import {
extract
} from 'oembed-parser';
const getOembed = async (url) => {
try {
const oembed = await extract(url);
return oembed;
} catch (err) {
console.trace(err);
}
};
Return boolean. True if the URL matches with any provider in the list.
Sets the list of providers to use, overriding the defaults.
This can be useful for whitelisting only certain providers, or for adding custom providers.
For the expected format, see the default list.
List of resource providers is a clone of oembed.com and available here.
Since October 24 2020, Facebook have deprecated their legacy urls and applied a new Facebook oEmbed endpoints. Please update your oembed-parser
version to v1.4.2 to be able to extract Instagram links.
Technically, now we have to use Facebook Graph API, with the access token from a valid and live Facebook app. By default, oembed-parser
build Graph API endpoint using a pre-existing access token. Althrough it should work in almost cases. However, we recommend to add your own ones.
export FACEBOOK_APP_ID=your_app_id
export FACEBOOK_CLIENT_TOKEN=your_client_token
