Storyblock (Web)

Storyblock is used when you want to integrate the video player directly on to your website.

Integration

Place the javascript part either on the <head> or <body> or right above the Firework component you are adding.

<script async src="//asset.fwcdn3.com/js/storyblock.js" type="text/javascript"></script>

Place the web component where the Storyblock should be displayed.

<fw-storyblock
  channel="firework"
></fw-storyblock>

AMP HTML header part (avoid duplication with previously declared scripts)

 <script async custom-element="amp-access" src="https://cdn.ampproject.org/v0/amp-access-0.1.js"></script>
 <script async custom-element="amp-iframe" src="https://cdn.ampproject.org/v0/amp-iframe-latest.js"></script>
 <script async custom-template="amp-mustache" src="https://cdn.ampproject.org/v0/amp-mustache-0.2.js"></script>

AMP HTML header part

    <script id="amp-access" type="application/json">
    [{
        "noPingback": true,
        "authorization": "https://fireworktv.com/embed/amp-access?&source_url=SOURCE_URL&ampdoc_url=AMPDOC_URL&canonical_url=CANONICAL_URL&document_referrer=DOCUMENT_REFERRER&reader_id=READER_ID&_=RANDOM",
        "authorizationFallbackResponse": {
            "access": false,
            "error": true
        },
        "namespace": "fwn"
    }]
    </script>

AMP HTML body part. Search for {CHANNEL} and replace with your channel name. Other params can be serialized as iframe src querystring.

<!-- This part goes to body -->
<section amp-access="fwn.access">
    <template amp-access-template type="amp-mustache">
        <amp-iframe height="600" layout="fixed-height" resizable width="auto" sandbox="allow-scripts allow-same-origin allow-popups allow-popups-to-escape-sandbox allow-top-navigation allow-top-navigation-by-user-activation"
            src="https://fw.tv/iframe/embed-feed?&channel={CHANNEL}&open_in=_blank&page_url={{fwn.source_url}}"
        >
            <div overflow>Loading videos...</div>
            <div placeholder style="text-align:center;margin:50px 0;">
                <amp-img layout="fixed" width="300" height="118" src="https://asset.fireworktv.com/images/amp/firework.png"></amp-img>
            </div>
        </amp-iframe>
    </template>
</section>

IFrame integrations are based on Firework hosted code snippets. Querystring of src attribute should be used to pass any additional attributes. Please note page_url is also used as a primary url for sharing. Read more about iframe limitations here.

<iframe
  allow="autoplay; web-share;"
  style="background: transparent; border: none; height: 50vh"
  sandbox="allow-scripts allow-same-origin allow-popups allow-popups-to-escape-sandbox allow-top-navigation allow-top-navigation-by-user-activation"
  src="https://fw.tv/iframe/storyblock?amp=1&channel={CHANNEL}&page_url={CURRENT_URL}"
></iframe>

IFrame integration can be used for Facebook Instant Article as well. Please follow the FB guidelines on how to include embeds. https://developers.facebook.com/docs/instant-articles/reference/embeds

In case your page uses multiple widget components, insert <script> tag with combined fwn.js file instead of requesting each js file individually. This would improve your performance.

Example:

<script async src="//asset.fwcdn3.com/js/fwn.js" type="text/javascript" ></script>
