Flowplayer

This project is not covered by Drupal’s security advisory policy.

This is a Drupal module enabling the users of Flowplayer to include embed videos to articles.

Introduction
Provides a field type for displaying videos from Flowplayer

Requirements

  • Composer
  • Guzzle

Installation

  1. The best way to install the module is use the composer command
    composer require 'drupal/flow_player_field:^3.2'
    To determine the version is going in the bottom of the page and see (click) the newest version.
  2. The second method is downloading the module and putting it in the modules folder.
    [root]/web/modules/flow_player_field
  3. We still need to run composer install for the dependencies to be installed.

  4. After everything is installed we can proceed with the configuration

Configuration

  1. In order to enable Flowplayer we will have to login and go to
    example.com/admin/modules and install the module.
    There is a group called FLOWPLAYER and we should check Flowplayer Field and Flowplayer WYSIWYG. After we check those checkboxes we should scroll down and click the install button
    Extend modules
  2. After the module is installed we should configure it. We can do that via few links.
    • On the module itself by clicking the caret icon and clicking Configure
      Settings link
    • In the configuration menu
      Settings link
    • Or directly going to example.com/admin/config/flow_player_field and fill out the fields on the form

    After we get to the settings screen we need to add the appropriate values to the required fields.

    • Api Key
    • Site ID
    • Search results number (has default value)
    • Embed code (has default value)
      Flowplayer settings

    Now we save the configuration

  3. The last step is configuring our CKEditor. We will do that by going to example.com/admin/config/content/formats and configure the editor that we want to use.
    Text format configuration

    When we click the configure button we have to:
    • Drag the Flowplayer icon to the toolbar
    • Check the Flowplayer WYSIWYG checkbox in the Enabled filters group

      Format Icon
    • Click Save configuration at the bottom of the page and we are good to go
  4. Now when we write an article we will have the Flowplayer icon in the CKEditor and we can include our videos

    Flowplayer Icon

Sometimes when you install a module in Drupal there can be an Drupal error that says:
