Getting started

To get started using AndroidYouTubePlayer simply add the dependency to your module-level gradle file.

Download the library

Add this to your project-level build.gradle:

allprojects {
  repositories {
    ...
    maven { url "https://jitpack.io" }
  }
}

Add this to your module-level build.gradle:

dependencies {
  compile 'com.github.PierfrancescoSoffritti:AndroidYouTubePlayer:1.0.0'
}

Proguard

If you are using ProGuard you might need to add the following option:

-keep public class com.pierfrancescosoffritti.youtubeplayer.** {
   public *;
}

-keepnames class com.pierfrancescosoffritti.youtubeplayer.*

Usage

A sample project that shows how to use the library is available in the sample module. You can also download the sample apk here.

Ready to use example

In order to start using the player you need to add the YouTubePlayerView to your layout

<LinearLayout
    xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    android:orientation="vertical" >

    <com.pierfrancescosoffritti.youtubeplayer.player.YouTubePlayerView
        android:id="@+id/youtube_player_view"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"/>
</LinearLayout>

Get a reference to the YouTubePlayerView and initialize it.

YouTubePlayerView youTubePlayerView = findViewById(R.id.youtube_player_view);
youTubePlayerView.initialize(new YouTubePlayerInitListener() {
    @Override
    public void onInitSuccess(final YouTubePlayer initializedYouTubePlayer) {
        initializedYouTubePlayer.addListener(new AbstractYouTubePlayerListener() {
            @Override
            public void onReady() {
                initializedYouTubePlayer.loadVideo(videoId, 0);
            }
        });
    }
}, true);

In this example I am loading a new video as soon as the player is ready.
