Example using the YouTube Data API in AS3

By Jonathan on April 6, 2011

Here’s a little Flex Project that I set up, experimenting with the YouTube Data API. My main focus here was to start learning the API so I didn’t take the design very seriously (is just a practice example). And also was a step by step guide for learning Flex also, again design was not a priority here so that’s why it has the Spark layout look.

In this example you can search for a video. View related videos and see the comments of a particular video selected. Pretty neat and simple, I’m planning in making another example with the Facebook API.
I put it together with Robotlegs and AS3 Signals.

Also used TubeLoc for the video player and the AS3 YouTube Data API

You can right click the movie and select “View Source” to view the code (MXML and AS3)
I’m also on GitHub you can view and download the source code here: https://github.com/jonathantorres/YouTube-API-Example
