I wish to load the Vimeo player API asynchronously, using something like:
var tag = document.createElement('script')
tag.src = 'https://player.vimeo.com/api/player.js'
var firstScriptTag = document.getElementsByTagName('script')[0]
firstScriptTag.parentNode.insertBefore(tag, firstScriptTag)
This works fine, though the side effect is that I now need a mechanism to determine when the API has loaded, to initialize a player accordingly. I could use a setInterval() to poll and detect when the Vimeo variable is available I guess, though I was hoping for a more elegant, events based approach, something like:
Vimeo.on('loaded', function(){
new Vimeo.Player('myplayer')
})
Any ideas?
