Angular 6 Search Box example with Youtube API & RxJS 6

In this tutorial, we’re gonna build an Angular Application that helps us to search YouTube when typing. The result is a list of video thumbnails, along with a description and link to each YouTube video. We'll use RxJS 6 for processing data and EventEmitter for interaction between Components.

Angular 6 Search Box example with Youtube API overview

Goal

angular-search-box-example-youtube-api

Technology

  • Angular 6
  • RxJS 6
  • YouTube v3 search API

    Project Structure

    angular-search-box-example-youtube-api-angular-tutorial-project-structure

  • VideoDetail object (video-detail.model) holds the data we want from each result.

  • YouTubeSearchService (youtube-search.service) manages the API request to YouTube and convert the results into a stream of VideoDetail[].

  • SearchBoxComponent (search-box.component) calls YouTube service when the user types.

  • SearchResultComponent (search-result.component) renders a specific VideoDetail.

  • AppComponent (app.component) encapsulates our whole YouTube searching app and
    render the list of results.

    Practice

    Setup Project

    Create Service & Components

    Run commands:

  • ng g s services/youtube-search

  • ng g c youtube/search-box

  • ng g c youtube/search-result

    Add HttpClient module

    Open app.module.ts, add HttpClientModule:


    import { BrowserModule } from '@angular/platform-browser';
    import { NgModule } from '@angular/core';
    import { HttpClientModule } from '@angular/common/http';

import { AppComponent } from './app.component';
import { SearchBoxComponent } from './youtube/search-box/search-box.component';
import { SearchResultComponent } from './youtube/search-result/search-result.component';

@NgModule({
declarations: [
AppComponent,
SearchBoxComponent,
SearchResultComponent
],
imports: [
BrowserModule,
HttpClientModule
],
providers: [],
bootstrap: [AppComponent]
})
export class AppModule { }

Result DataModel
