YouTube IFrame Player API with Vuejs

A simple component for a powerful API. vue-youtube provides a simple layer for you to use your imagination while over the YouTube IFrame Player API.

VueYoutube

Intro

vue-youtube is an wrapper of YouTube IFrame Player API (YIPA).

What is the difference between other plugins? The difference is that the function body is wrapped in a promise. This promise is resolved only when the player has finished loading and is ready to begin receiving API calls (onReady). Therefore, all function calls are queued and replayed only when player is ready.

You can do something like:

export default {
  // ...
  computed: {
    player() {
      return this.$refs.youtube.player
    }
  },
  methods: {
    async playVideo() {
      await this.player.playVideo()
      // Do something after the playVideo command
    }
  }
}

Tips for Resizing

Resizing proportionally (resize) works best with a parent element. The parent element is used for a width reference. fitParent should be on in most situations. It allows resize to work without appyling CSS any properties to your iframe. If you want to turn fitParent off, you can emulate it with CSS by setting width to 100%, like so:

iframe {
  width: 100%;
  max-width: 650px; /* Also helpful. Optional. */
}
