YoutubeVideoPlayer is part of Ionic Native, which is a set of wrappers for a curated list of Cordova plugins. These wrappers make it very easy to implement native functionality in your apps. Here let’s see how to setup a Youtube video player:
First install the YoutubeVideoPlayer Cordova plugin:
$ ionic plugin add https://github.com/Glitchbone/CordovaYoutubeVideoPlayer.git
Then import it in your component:
import { YoutubeVideoPlayer } from 'ionic-native';
You can now use the openVideo() method:
playVideo(videoId) {
YoutubeVideoPlayer.openVideo(videoId);
}
And now in your template it’s as simple as calling playVideo() with a valid Youtube video id:
<input placeholder="Enter a video id" #videoId>
<button ion-button (click)="openVideo(videoId.value)">
<ion-icon name="play"></ion-icon>
</button>
