//在下面的函数传递缩略图url。

         file_put_contents ($fullpath,file_get_contents($thumbnail_url));

在javascript中(使用jQuery):

function vimeoLoadingThumb(id){    
    var url = "http://vimeo.com/api/v2/video/" + id + ".json?callback=showThumb";

    var id_img = "#vimeo-" + id;

    var script = document.createElement( 'script' );
    script.src = url;

    $(id_img).before(script);
}


function showThumb(data){
    var id_img = "#vimeo-" + data[0].id;
    $(id_img).attr('src',data[0].thumbnail_medium);
}

要显示它:

<img id="vimeo-{{ video.id_video }}" src="" alt="{{ video.title }}" />
<script type="text/javascript">
  vimeoLoadingThumb({{ video.id_video }});
</script>

如果你想通过纯js/jquery没有api使用缩略图，你可以使用这个工具从视频中捕获一帧，瞧!插入url拇指在任何你喜欢的来源。

这是一支码笔:

<img src="https://i.vimeocdn.com/video/531141496_640.jpg"` alt="" />

以下是获取缩略图的网站:

使用Ruby，你可以做以下事情，比如:

url                      = "http://www.vimeo.com/7592893"
vimeo_video_id           = url.scan(/vimeo.com\/(\d+)\/?/).flatten.to_s               # extract the video id
vimeo_video_json_url     = "http://vimeo.com/api/v2/video/%s.json" % vimeo_video_id   # API call

# Parse the JSON and extract the thumbnail_large url
thumbnail_image_location = JSON.parse(open(vimeo_video_json_url).read).first['thumbnail_large'] rescue nil

分解Karthikeyan P的答案，使其可以用于更广泛的场景:

// Requires jQuery

function parseVimeoIdFromUrl(vimeoUrl) {
  var match = /vimeo.*\/(\d+)/i.exec(vimeoUrl);
  if (match)
    return match[1];

  return null;
};

function getVimeoThumbUrl(vimeoId) {
  var deferred = $.Deferred();
  $.ajax(
    '//www.vimeo.com/api/v2/video/' + vimeoId + '.json',
    {
        dataType: 'jsonp',
        cache: true
    }
  )
  .done(function (data) {
    // .thumbnail_small 100x75
    // .thumbnail_medium 200x150
    // 640 wide
        var img = data[0].thumbnail_large;
        deferred.resolve(img);  
    })
  .fail(function(a, b, c) {
    deferred.reject(a, b, c);
  });
  return deferred;
};

使用

从Vimeo视频URL获取Vimeo Id:

var vimeoId = parseVimeoIdFromUrl(vimeoUrl);

从vimeo Id获取一个vimeo缩略图URL:

getVimeoThumbUrl(vimeoIds[0])
.done(function(img) {
    $('div').append('<img src="' + img + '"/>');
});
