Conred

In every project we have common things like video embedding from url, user input displaying, formatting, trimming stripping, external url protocol adding and all that nasty stuff that we write in our apps. These are the cases where Conred saves the day.

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'conred'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install conred

Usage

Iframe generator for Youtube and Vimeo videos:

c = Conred::Video.new(
    video_url: "http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tNtW9pGFPTA&feature=plcp", 
    width: 285, 
    height: 185,
    error_message: "Video url is invalid"
)

Then you can get your ready embed code like this (Conred will recognize video provider by itself):

c.code

You can also check if it is youtube or vimeo video like this:

c.youtube_video? ==> true
c.vimeo_video? ==> false

Or if it exists:

c.exists? ==> true

General helpers for rails app

If you wish to use text helpers then in your application_helper add this include line:

include Conred::Helpers

Now you have these methods available to you:

Sanitizes all html and trims content if count is provided:

sanitize_and_trim("<html>string with", 10) => "string ..."

Sanitizes body, allowed tags are(p a strong ul ol li blockquote strike u em):

sanitize_body("<html><strong>string</strong> <p>with<p></html>") => "<strong>string</strong> <p>with<p>"

External link formatting

external_url("www.google.com") => "http://www.google.com"
