Our [code generator](http://embed.ly/code) makes it super simple to create a card of any site.\n\nThe follow explains how to use platform.js to programmatically create cards.\n[block:api-header]\n{\n  \"type\": \"basic\",\n  \"title\": \"Basics\"\n}\n[/block]\nThis adds [platform.js](doc:platformjs) to your site and loads the script asynchronously. By\ndefault ``platform.js`` will create a card for an ``A`` tag or ``BLOCKQUOTE``\nwith the class ``embedly-card``. For example, this will create a card for\nembed.ly:\n[block:code]\n{\n  \"codes\": [\n    {\n      \"code\": \" <a href=\\\"http://embed.ly\\\" class=\\\"embedly-card\\\">Embedly</a>\",\n      \"language\": \"html\"\n    }\n  ]\n}\n[/block]\nAnd this will also create a card:\n[block:code]\n{\n  \"codes\": [\n    {\n      \"code\": \" <blockquote class=\\\"embedly-card\\\">\\n    <h4><a href=\\\"http://embed.ly/docs\\\">Documentation</a></h4>\\n    <p>\\n      Embedly's Documentation is the best.\\n    </p>\\n  </blockquote>\",\n      \"language\": \"html\"\n    }\n  ]\n}\n[/block]\nThe difference here, is that the ``H4`` will become the title of the Card and\nthe ``P`` text will become the description.\n\n[block:api-header]\n{\n  \"type\": \"basic\",\n  \"title\": \"Customize\"\n}\n[/block]\nThere are a number of ``data-card-*`` attributes that you can use to customize\nthe card. They are as follows:\n\n[block:parameters]\n{\n  \"data\": {\n    \"h-0\": \"Attribute\",\n    \"h-1\": \"Value\",\n    \"h-2\": \"Description\",\n    \"0-0\": \"data-card-via\",\n    \"0-1\": \"URL i.e http://embed.ly\",\n    \"0-2\": \"Specifies the via content in the card.

For example, if you do not want to use a custom class instead of ``embedly-card`` you can use the following code:\n[block:code]\n{\n  \"codes\": [\n    {\n      \"code\": \"embedly('card', '.card-this');\",\n      \"language\": \"javascript\"\n    }\n  ]\n}\n[/block]\nIf you would like to create a card from a single element you can do the\nfollowing:\n[block:code]\n{\n  \"codes\": [\n    {\n      \"code\": \" var a = document.getElementById('#myCard');\\n embedly('card', a);\",\n      \"language\": \"javascript\"\n    }\n  ]\n}\n[/block]\nLastly if you would like to limit the cards to only embed certain types of\nmedia you can pass in a ``types`` argument::\n[block:code]\n{\n  \"codes\": [\n    {\n      \"code\": \"embedly('card', {types: ['rich', 'video', 'image']});\\n\",\n      \"language\": \"javascript\"\n    }\n  ]\n}\n[/block]\nor with a custom selector as well:\n[block:code]\n{\n  \"codes\": [\n    {\n      \"code\": \"embedly('card', {selector: 'a.embed', types: ['article', 'image']});\",\n      \"language\": \"javascript\"\n    }\n  ]\n}\n[/block]\nIf ``platform.js`` has not loaded yet, it will queue actions till we are ready\nto act on them.\n[block:api-header]\n{\n  \"type\": \"basic\",\n  \"title\": \"Listeners\"\n}\n[/block]\nWhen using cards in non-standard displays you may want to listen to some events. Cards supports the following events.\n\n**``card.rendered``**\n\nWhen the card has actually been rendered.\n[block:code]\n{\n  \"codes\": [\n    {\n      \"code\": \"embedly('on', 'card.rendered', function(iframe){\\n  // iframe is the card iframe that we used to render the event.\\n  $card = $(iframe);\\n\\n  // Grab the width and height.\\n  console.log($card.width(), $card.height());\\n});\",\n      \"language\": \"javascript\"\n    }\n  ]\n}\n[/block]\n**``card.resize``**\n\nWhen the card has been resized. We do this fairly often when the browser window has changed size, or the content in the card has changed.\n[block:code]\n{\n  \"codes\": [\n    {\n      \"code\": \"embedly('on', 'card.resize', function(iframe){\\n  // iframe is the card iframe that we used to render the event.\\n  $card = $(iframe);\\n\\n  // Grab the width and height.\\n  console.log($card.width(), $card.height());\\n});\",\n      \"language\": \"javascript\"\n    }\n  ]\n}\n[/block]\n\n[block:api-header]\n{\n  \"type\": \"basic\",\n  \"title\": \"Defaults\"\n}\n[/block]\nIf you would like to set options globally instead of per card you use\n``defaults``. Here's an example of setting all the cards to align right with a\nwidth of 700px and remove the chrome.\n[block:code]\n{\n  \"codes\": [\n    {\n      \"code\": \"embedly(\\\"defaults\\\", {\\n  cards: {\\n    key: 'xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx',\\n    width: 700,\\n    align: 'right',\\n    chrome: 0\\n  }\\n});\",\n      \"language\": \"javascript\"\n    }\n  ]\n}\n[/block]\nNote that data attributes on the card override these defaults. If you wish for the defaults to override the data attributes, you can add ``override: true`` like so:\n[block:code]\n{\n  \"codes\": [\n    {\n      \"code\": \"embedly(\\\"defaults\\\", {\\n  cards: {\\n    override: true,\\n    width: '90%',\\n    ...\\n  }\\n});\",\n      \"language\": \"javascript\"\n    }\n  ]\n}\n[/block]\n\n[block:api-header]\n{\n  \"type\": \"basic\",\n  \"title\": \"Player\"\n}\n[/block]\nEmbedly gives you programmatic control of embedded video via [Player.js](https://github.com/embedly/player.js/) and we've expanded that to Cards as well. Player allows you to play, pause, seek and listen to events for cards with video. Here's a quick example:\n[block:code]\n{\n  \"codes\": [\n    {\n      \"code\": \"embedly('player', function(player){\\n  console.log(player.url) // URL of the media that we are operating on.\\n\\n  // When the user pauses a video, perform an action.\\n  player.on('pause', function(){\\n    //display modal.\\n  });\\n\\n  // Autoplay all the videos that support Player.js\\n  player.play()\\n});\",\n      \"language\": \"javascript\"\n    }\n  ]\n}\n[/block]\nLearn more about the [Player functionality](doc:player)\n[block:api-header]\n{\n  \"type\": \"basic\",\n  \"title\": \"CSS Customization\"\n}\n[/block]\n\n[block:callout]\n{\n  \"type\": \"info\",\n  \"title\": \"CSS is only available on a paid plan.\",\n  \"body\": \"You can upgrade inside [app.embed.ly](https://app.embed.ly)\"\n}\n[/block]\nEmbedly allows you to customize the styles inside a card. If you want to change the font or colors of the card than this feature is for you! There are a couple of ways to pass styles into a card. We will outline them here. \n\n## inline\nYou can specify the css styles inline via a `style` tag. Embedly will look for a single `style` tag with the `embedly-css` and use that CSS.\n[block:code]\n{\n  \"codes\": [\n    {\n      \"code\": \"<style class=\\\"embedly-css\\\">\\n  :::at:::import url(https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Open+Sans+Condensed:300);\\n  .card {\\n    font-family: 'Open Sans Condensed', sans-serif;\\n  }\\n  .card a, .card .action {\\n    color: red;\\n  }\\n  .hdr {\\n    display:none;\\n  }\\n</style>\",\n      \"language\": \"html\"\n    }\n  ]\n}\n[/block]\n## link\nYou can specify a stylesheet for Embedly to place inside the card via a `link` tag. Embedly will look for a single `link` tag with the `embedly-css` and use that CSS.\n[block:code]\n{\n  \"codes\": [\n    {\n      \"code\": \"<head>\\n  ...\\n\\t<link rel=\\\"stylesheet\\\" href=\\\"http://example.com/styles/card.css\\\">\\n</head>\",\n      \"language\": \"html\"\n    }\n  ]\n}\n[/block]\n## defaults\nLastly you can pass the css through defaults like so:\n[block:code]\n{\n  \"codes\": [\n    {\n      \"code\": \"embedly(\\\"defaults\\\", {\\n  cards: {\\n    key: 'xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx',\\n\\t\\tcss: 'http://example.com/styles/card.css'\\n  }\\n});\",\n      \"language\": \"javascript\"\n    }\n  ]\n}\n[/block]\n## demo\n[block:embed]\n{\n  \"html\": \"<iframe class=\\\"embedly-embed\\\" src=\\\"//cdn.embedly.com/widgets/media.html?url=https%3A%2F%2Fjsfiddle.net%2FvuwLcpw1%2F%3Fheight%3D600%26tabs%3Dresult%2Chtml&src=https%3A%2F%2Fjsfiddle.net%2FvuwLcpw1%2Fembedded%2Fresult%2Chtml%2F&type=text%2Fhtml&key=02466f963b9b4bb8845a05b53d3235d7&schema=jsfiddle\\\" width=\\\"600\\\" height=\\\"600\\\" scrolling=\\\"no\\\" frameborder=\\\"0\\\" allowfullscreen></iframe>\",\n  \"url\": \"https://jsfiddle.net/vuwLcpw1/?height=600&tabs=result,html\",\n  \"title\": \"Edit fiddle - JSFiddle\",\n  \"favicon\": \"https://jsfiddle.net/favicon.png\"\n}\n[/block]\n\n[block:api-header]\n{\n  \"type\": \"basic\",\n  \"title\": \"Remove Branding\"\n}\n[/block]\nCards includes a \"powered by Embedly\" logo at the bottom of every card. If you would like to removed this branding, you can upgrade to a the embed product in [app.embed.ly](https://app.embed.ly/ar?path=settings%2Fplan).\n\nAny card created through [app.embed.ly](https://app.embed.ly) will have branding removed within 24 hours due to browser caching. \n\nFor cards not generated through app.embed.ly you must include your API key, found [here](https://app.embed.ly/ar?path=api%2Fkey). You can do this one of two ways.\n\n### On the Card\n[block:code]\n{\n  \"codes\": [\n    {\n      \"code\": \"<a href=\\\"embedly-card\\\" data-card-key=\\\"XXXXXXXXXXXX\\\" href=\\\"http://embed.ly\\\"></a>\",\n      \"language\": \"html\"\n    }\n  ]\n}\n[/block]\n### Via JavaScript\n[block:code]\n{\n  \"codes\": [\n    {\n      \"code\": \"embedly(\\\"defaults\\\", {\\n  cards: {\\n    key: 'XXXXXXXXXXXX',\\n  }\\n});\",\n      \"language\": \"javascript\"\n    }\n  ]\n}\n[/block]","excerpt":"","slug":"cards","type":"basic","title":"Cards"}
