Component body
This project is a quick rewrite of the existing Media Embedded module to support fields with the File type (as opposed to the now deprecated Media asset field type). It scans a specified text field for valid media URLs and saves them automatically into a media field for display with the entity.
It should not be considered entirely stable/bug-free, but it is functional.
Major changes from upstream:
- Support for File field type
- Support for the deprecated media asset field has been dropped
- MediaEmbedded no longer preserves field values that were not inserted by it - all existing field values are cleared and regenerated when a entity is edited (a limitation as a result of switching to the File field type)
- Much of the module has been re-written for better code readability
