An example Node.js app for Embed.rocks. Use this for starting your own implementation.
Install by:
- cloning this repository.
- Configure API key (see below)
npm installnpm start- Then point your browser to http://127.0.0.1:3000
This version of our integration example is made with a (Mustache-like) templating engine. The other version is with plain JavaScript and can be found here. You can use whichever suits you better, or even both.
In views/card.html file you will find the template that renders card data into html. You can use that as a basis for your own implementation.
In styles/card.style you will find the Stylus stylesheet code for cards.
In src/app/components/card.coffee you will find the CoffeeScript source code for handling the different Card functionalities.
Set your API key in src/server/route.coffee.
Note that in this example app fetches the embed data on the server site, never exposing the api key to the public. This is how it should be done - securely on the server side, not directly on the client side.
If you want to use a "safe domain" (for safe images), set it in src/app/components/card.coffee. Remember to add a trailing slash into it. For example //safe.mydomain.com/ (for both http and https). You need to have an NGINX setup for this. See the example nginx.conf.
