Suggestion | Creating a Custom Video Plugin for aem as cloud services Rich Text Editor

Hi All,

 

I am looking to create a custom video plugin for the Rich Text Editor (RTE) in AEM. The goal is to enable users to browse or drag and drop videos from DAM (like image or any other way) into the RTE editor.

 

I chose the RTE over the Universal Editor due to its better documentation.

 

Also, I would like suggestion to finding proper documentation on how to use API references and methods related to this custom implementation. If you have any suggestions for best practices.

Hello @abhishekty 

 

Curious to know the use case here. Do you have DM (Dynamic Media) for videos enabled for your AEM environment ? If yes you can use the dynamic media video component for your requirement. 

Refer this playbook - https://www.comwrap.com/en/blog/dynamic-media-101 along with official Adobe documentation for Dynamic Media.

 

For custom RTE plugin implementation you can refer below resources -

      Hi @riteshy18 ,

       

      Thanks for your reply and suggestions!

       

      Using the Brightcove Video JS library and its methods, can I get DAM or Dynamic Media asset references? Can I browse paths or drag and drop videos into the RTE editor?

      The custom toolbar button styling fine, but I am more interested in the button's functionality.

       

      //Thanks
