Support custom request headers #89

Closed uxweb closed 3 years ago

uxweb commented 3 years ago

Hello!

I was wondering if it is possible to send custom headers when using the $embera->getUrlData()?

I'm having an issue with private videos from Vimeo, the endpoint returns a different response for this kind of videos and the thumbnail fields are not included.

According to the Vimeo docs a Referer header must be sent with the whitelisted domain so it can return the private metadata which includes the thumbnail data.

Thank you!

Hi @uxweb

On Version 2.0.21 you can use the referer configuration option.

$embera = new Embera([
    'referer' => 'https://referrer.com/'
]);

This will set the referer for all http requests.

On the other hand, you could write a new class implementing the Embera\Http\HttpClientInterface interface and setting the referer for example.

Once you have the class you only need to inject it to the constructor.

$embera = new Embera($config, new DefaultProviderCollection($config), new YourImplementationOfHttpClient());

Let me know if this helps.

Hey @mpratt

Much appreciated for your response. Setting the referer option when creating a new Embera worked just fine!

Thank you for taking the time to answer my question.
