Embed Parser
============

[](#embed-parser)

Simple utility to parse URLs in HTML or text content which are placed on its own line to turn them into embeds.

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

Install the latest version with [Composer](https://getcomposer.org).

```
composer require dotsunited/embed-parser
```

Check the [Packagist page](https://packagist.org/packages/dotsunited/embed-parser)for all available versions.

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

There is single `parse` function provided which parses the given content and invokes a handler callback for each URL found.

```
$transformedContent = DotsUnited\EmbedParser\parse($content, function ($url) {
    $embedHtml = tranformUrlToEmbedHtml($url);

    return $embedHtml;
});
```

The URL must be on its own line or surrounded only by `` tags with no other text content to be parsed.
