Vimeo API in custom theme

    Hi
    I am developing a theme and want to include the Vimeo api in it so that users can enter their api credentials and display their videos on a page on their site.
    However, I’m at a loss as to how to use the Vimeo api with WordPress, the php api (https://github.com/vimeo/vimeo.php) calls for the use of Composer and I’m unsure how to use this with WordPress and indeed how to package it with a theme.
    Is this possible? I think the Vimeography plugin may do something along these lines but I don’t know? I can’t find any documentation relating to using the Vimeo api with WordPress so any guidance would be much appreciated.

    Thanks!

    Why not just inspect the code? This is open source after all!

    There are also several other plugins that have Vimeo integrated: https://wordpress.org/plugins/search/vimeo/

    Hi George

    Thank you for your reply. That is a good idea and something that I have looked at. The problem I am having with it though is that the plugins have a lot of custom code relating to the different functions they perform and I don’t have the knowledge of composer, the vimeo api or the individual plugins to be able to identify what bits do the basic configuration of the vimeo api.
    I was just wondering if anyone could point me in the direction of guidance on how to do the basic setup of the api in WordPress.
