Configuring the oEmbed Provider to Enable Pinterest Website Content

Question

We want to configure the site as an oEmbed provider. Official docs ( http://oembed.com/ ) say:

The configuration for oEmbed is very simple. Providers must specify one or more URL schemes and API endpoint pairs. The URL scheme describes which URLs provided by the service may have an embedded representation. The API endpoint describes where a consumer can request views for these URLs.

It's pretty simple how to configure the API endpoint to return some effective information about the URL provided as a request parameter. But the question is how and where providers should specify these URL schemes and API endpoint pairs.

If you have experience with oembed provider for pinterest, this is exactly what I need to do.

Thanks.

Answer 1

Old question, but I was looking for the same. The answer is now at http://oembed.com/ (heading 7)

7.1. Providers

Providers are available programmatically as a json file: http://oembed.com/providers.json .

To add new providers, please fork this repo on GitHub and change providers.yml.
