### Overview A Magento 2 module that adds performant YouTube embeds (with no user experience impact) based on [Paul Irish's Lite YouTube](https://github.com/paulirish/lite-youtube-embed) implementation. Includes further enhancements, such as image quality (size), WebP support, custom placeholder images, image lazy loading and a Page Builder content type. ### Features * Allows use of `` element anywhere on the storefront * Can be used in CMS Pages/Blocks, attribute output or even code * Adds a Page Builder content type for easier use (with admin preview) * Choose default placeholder image quality (size) * WebP image format used where browsers support * Optionally add custom placeholder image * Choose whether placeholder images are lazy loaded * Critical CSS added to `` to negate [CLS (Cumulative Layout Shift)](https://web.dev/cls/) * Remaining CSS/JS only loaded when `` elements exist on the page ### Installation ``` composer require magequest/magento2-module-lite-youtube bin/magento module:enable MageQuest_LiteYouTube bin/magento setup:upgrade ``` ### Usage See [Paul Irish's Lite YouTube](https://github.com/paulirish/lite-youtube-embed) README for basic usage. > Note: the progressive enhancement option is not recommended with this implementation as both button and imagery can be lazy loaded and by doing so helps reduce CLS (https://web.dev/cls/). #### Additional Controls The following additions are implemented via [this fork of Lite YouTube](https://github.com/johnhughes1984/lite-youtube-embed): * Default placeholder image quality: `quality="hqdefault|sddefault|maxresdefault"` * `hqdefault` is default * See overview of sizes and availability [here](https://github.com/paulirish/lite-youtube-embed/blob/master/youtube-thumbnail-urls.md) * Custom placeholder image: `image=""` * Disable placeholder image lazy load: `lazy="false"` ### Compatibility * Magento Open Source / Commerce Edition 2.4.x * Supports Magento 2 Full Page Cache (including Varnish) * Supports both Luma/Blank and Hyvä Themes based storefronts * **Does not support Internet Explorer** ### FAQs ##### Can I use the module if a site doesn't have/use Page Builder? Yes, you can just add `` elements manually to CMS Blocks/Pages, attributes or anywhere else that supports HTML input. ##### Why does the minified CSS also contain the critical CSS? Because the CSS is required on both the admin panel and the storefront, I ran into issues with the critical CSS not being recognised in the admin panel and didn't want to maintain 2 separate CSS files for the sake of 10 lines of CSS. ### Contributing Issues and pull requests welcomed. ## Changelog All notable changes to this project will be documented in this file. The format is based on [Keep a Changelog](https://keepachangelog.com/en/1.0.0/), and this project adheres to [Semantic Versioning](https://semver.org/spec/v2.0.0.html). ### [Unreleased] ### [1.0.0] - 2021-11-17 #### Added * Initial Lite YouTube support * Page Builder content type * Default placeholder image quality (size) selection * Default placeholder image WebP support * Custom placeholder image option * Lazy load placeholder images ## Recent Versions | Version | Released | |---|---| | 1.1.0 | 2025-05-08 | | 1.0.1 | 2022-12-22 | | 1.0.0 | 2021-11-18 | ## Dependencies ### Require | Package | Constraint | |---|---| | magento/framework | >=103.0.0 | ## Quality Latest release (1.1.0) passes the Packagento QA pipeline. Verdicts below are per-cell (Magento line × PHP version) for the matrixed tools, and run-once for the static / security tiers. ### Compatibility Each Magento line is installed on its supported PHP versions, then the module is built (DI compile + static-content deploy). Cells show passed / failed / untested; staircase gaps render as `–`. | Magento | PHP 8.2 | PHP 8.3 | PHP 8.4 | PHP 8.5 | |---|---|---|---|---| | 2.4.7 | Pass | Pass | – | – | | 2.4.8 | – | Pass | Pass | – | | 2.4.9 | – | – | Pass | Pass | ### Code Quality Advisory checks against the module's source. Never affect the Compatibility verdict — a phpcs finding can't make a module incompatible. #### Static Analysis Coding standards (phpcs), mess detection (phpmd), copy-pasted code (cpd), PHP cross-version compatibility, composer.json validity. Each runs once for the whole module. | Tool | Status | Findings | Summary | |---|---|---|---| | PHPCS | Pass | 0 | | | PHPMD | Pass | 0 | | | Cpd | Pass | 0 | | | Composer validate | Info | 1 | valid; 1 advisory note (composer validate --strict) | #### PHPStan Type-checks the module against a real Magento install. Re-runs per Magento + PHP version because resolvable symbols differ between releases. | Magento | PHP 8.2 | PHP 8.3 | PHP 8.4 | PHP 8.5 | |---|---|---|---|---| | 2.4.7 | Pass | Pass | – | – | | 2.4.8 | – | Pass | Pass | – | | 2.4.9 | – | – | Pass | Pass | ### Tests Unit and integration suites run per Magento + PHP cell. Test failures speak to the module's behaviour, not its compatibility with a line, so they're reported here separately. #### Unit Tests | Magento | PHP 8.2 | PHP 8.3 | PHP 8.4 | PHP 8.5 | |---|---|---|---|---| | 2.4.7 | N/A | N/A | – | – | | 2.4.8 | – | N/A | N/A | – | | 2.4.9 | – | – | N/A | N/A | #### Integration Tests | Magento | PHP 8.2 | PHP 8.3 | PHP 8.4 | PHP 8.5 | |---|---|---|---|---| | 2.4.7 | N/A | N/A | – | – | | 2.4.8 | – | N/A | N/A | – | | 2.4.9 | – | – | N/A | N/A | ### Security Dependency-advisory audit (composer audit) plus a source malware scan. A malware detection fails the version outright. | Tool | Status | Findings | Summary | |---|---|---|---| | Composer audit | Pass | 0 | | | Malware scan | Pass | 0 | | ## Licence and pricing Free. A licence is still minted on checkout and bound to your project for Composer access — no payment step. Refundable within 14 days of first purchase via https://packagento.com/account/refunds/. ## Install via Claude Code or any MCP client The Packagento MCP server can run the licence + project + Composer steps above in one tool call: ``` purchase_and_install_packages( composer_names=["magequest/magento2-module-lite-youtube"], project_id="proj_xxx" ) ``` This handles cart, checkout, licence minting, project activation, and writes auth.json credentials. Connect a client with `claude mcp add packagento https://mcp.packagento.com`. Full setup at https://packagento.com/docs/mcp-setup. ## Vendor magequest is a Magento 2 vendor on Packagento.
