How to get video id from url? (Vimeo)

Question

Php

<?php $url = 'http://vimeo.com/25451551'; /* http://www.vimeo.com/25451551 ... www.vimeo.com/25451551 */ $url = preg_match('???', $url); echo $url; ?> 

Exit

 25451551 

Any help with this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Answer 1

If video IDs can start with 0, you may need to tweak the following code a bit:

 $url = 'http://vimeo.com/25451551'; sscanf(parse_url($url, PHP_URL_PATH), '/%d', $video_id); // $video_id = int(25451551) 

Answer 2

 $url = 'http://vimeo.com/25451551/test'; $result = preg_match('/(\d+)/', $url, $matches); if ($result) { var_dump($matches[0]); }
