Get video id from Vimeo url

Question

I\'m trying to find the best regexp to fetch vimeo video id from URL.

Example urls :

https://vimeo.com/11111111
http://vimeo.com/1111111         


        

Answer 1

The following regex will return the id on group 1 for those who only want to retrieve this information. It works with all the example URLs given in the question. It also works without http:// and https://. It also works with URLs like player.vimeo.com/...

/^.*(?:vimeo.com)\\/(?:channels\\/|groups\\/[^\\/]*\\/videos\\/|album\\/\\d+\\/video\\/|video\\/|)(\\d+)(?:$|\\/|\\?)/
