# discord-embed
|
|
|
|
Discord will only create embeds for videos and images if they are smaller than 8MB. We can "abuse" this by using
|
|
the [twitter:image HTML meta tag](https://developer.twitter.com/en/docs/twitter-for-websites/cards/overview/markup).
|
|
|
|
This is useful when you send a video and want it to be playable in Discord.
|
|
|
|
## How it works
|
|
|
|
This program will create a .html that you will send instead of a .mp4 file. Discord will parse the HTML and create an
|
|
embed for you. The embed will be the same as the one you would get if you send a .mp4 file.
|
|
|
|
## Environment variables
|
|
|
|
| Variable | Description |
|
|
|---------------|------------------------------------------------------------------|
|
|
| SERVE_DOMAIN | Domain where we server files from, not where we upload files to. |
|
|
| UPLOAD_FOLDER | Path to the directory where we store files. |
|
|
| WEBHOOK_URL | Discord Webhook URL |
|
|
|
|
## Howto
|
|
|
|
Your webserver infront of discord-embed needs to be configured for this program to work.
|
|
|
|
## Nginx
|
|
|
|
You have two example files here: [embed.subdomain.conf](embed.subdomain.conf) and [i.subdomain.conf](i.subdomain.conf)
|
|
|
|
## Caddy
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
# SERVE_DOMAIN = i.example.com
|
|
# UPLOAD_FOLDER = /var/www/embed
|
|
embed.example.com {
|
|
reverse_proxy * http://discord-embed:5000 # The Docker container where discord-embed runs
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
i.example.com {
|
|
root * /var/www/embed
|
|
try_files {uri} {uri}/ {uri}.html
|
|
file_server
|
|
}
|
|
```
