How to dismiss YouTubePlayerViewController when video ends?

[tobedev]

Am using UIKit and having a hard time trying to auto. dismiss the YouTubePlayerViewController when video ends, as there's no delegate methods implemented, and the only way documented is by using '.objectWillChange.sink { }' which is SwiftUI only I think?

Any hints/input would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.

Hi @tobedev,

You can use the playbackStateSubject, an instance of PassthroughSubject from the Combine framework, which is compatible with both UIKit and SwiftUI.

let cancellable = youTubePlayerViewController
    .player
    .playbackStateSubject
    .sink { [weak youTubePlayerViewController] playbackState in
        guard playbackState == .ended else {
            return
        }
        youTubePlayerViewController?.dismiss(animated: true)
    }
    
self.present(youTubePlayerViewController, animated: true)

Note

Please ensure that you retain the AnyCancellable from the sink operation in a stored property or a set of cancellables, otherwise, the subscription will be cancelled.

Hello, in your example project, I have added the following code:

cancellable = self.youTubePlayer.playbackStatePublisher.sink(receiveValue: { statePublisher in
                print("\(statePublisher)")
            })

However, nothing happens at the end of the video.
Do you know how to fix that ?
