lektor-twitter-embed

Lektor template filter to convert twitter links to embeds

Installation

pip install lektor-twitter-embed

Usage

{{ "https://twitter.com/MaiaFranklyn/status/1277100235928621058" | tweet }}

It is possible to pass an optional 'params' object to configure the embed. Any of the params documented at https://developer.twitter.com/en/docs/twitter-api/v1/tweets/post-and-engage/api-reference/get-statuses-oembed may be supplied

{{
  "https://twitter.com/MaiaFranklyn/status/1277100235928621058" | tweet(
    params={'align': 'center', 'hide_thread': 'true'}
  )
}}

By default if the request to publish.twitter.com fails, your page will not build. This behaviour can be changed so that a failed request to publish.twitter.com will fall back to rendering a link to the tweet.
