Instead of linking to videos externally, you can include them inline in your docs, and they render as embedded players in the final HTML output. It depends on Sphinx and requests, both widely used and stable.\n\nYou use it by adding the extension to your Sphinx conf.py, then writing directives like `.. youtube:: VIDEO_ID` in your .rst files. For Peertube, you can specify a custom instance URL. The package has been actively maintained and carries no known security vulnerabilities, making it a straightforward choice for documentation projects that want to include video content.","worth_installing":"Yes. This is a lightweight, actively maintained Sphinx extension with low install friction, no security issues, and a permissive license. Install it if you need to embed videos in Sphinx documentation; skip it if your docs are text-only or you prefer external video links."},"id":"sphinxcontrib-youtube","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/sphinxcontrib-youtube","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/sphinxcontrib-youtube.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/sphinxcontrib-youtube/"},"maintenance":{"status":"active"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2026-04-01","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"sphinxcontrib-youtube","python_support":"unspecified","summary":"Sphinx \"youtube\" extension."},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":297075,"position":7891,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"1.5.0"}
