YouTube Wrapper

A simpler way to load YouTube players.

For use with Browserify

Install

npm i youtube-wrapper

Use

var youTube = require('youtube-wrapper');

// Call this **once** in our app to automatically load the YouTube API
youTube.autoLoadYouTubeAPI();

// -- OR --

// Load it yourself and call (usually in window.onYouTubeIframeAPIReady):
youTube.youTubeAPIReady();

// Anyway, you can immediately do :
var Player = youTube.Player;
var player = new Player(element, opts);
// element and opts are the same as in the YouTube API

player.play(); // No need to wait for the onReady event !

NB :

opts doesn't accept the events key. Instead Player inherits from Node's EventEmitter.

Available events and methods are listed in youTube.PROXIED_YT_EVENTS and youTube.PROXIED_YT_METHODS.

If YouTube adds some events before an update of this module you can add them to youTube.PROXIED_YT_EVENTS.

If YouTube adds some methods before an update of this module you can add them with youTube.proxyYTMethod('methodName'). Or you can use player.applyYTMethod('methodName', [args])
