Easily embed a YouTube video. Just drop this file in your _plugins directory.

class YouTube < Liquid::Tag
Syntax = /^\s*([^\s]+)(\s+(\d+)\s+(\d+)\s*)?/
def initialize(tagName, markup, tokens)
super
if markup =~ Syntax then
@id = $1
if $2.nil? then
@width = 560
@height = 420
else
@width = $2.to_i
@height = $3.to_i
end
else
raise "No YouTube ID provided in the \"youtube\" tag"
end
end
def render(context)
# "<iframe width=\"#{@width}\" height=\"#{@height}\" src=\"http://www.youtube.com/embed/#{@id}\" frameborder=\"0\"allowfullscreen></iframe>"
