ionic-2 native youtube video player plugin failed

问题:

hi i am building an ionic-2 app which shows some you tube videos content, i researched on the ionic native docs https://ionicframework.com/docs/native/youtube-video-player/

when i tried to install this plugin

`ionic cordova plugin add https://github.com/JonSmart/CordovaYoutubeVideoPlayer`

i am getting error on my console

error msg

Error: Failed to fetch plugin https://github.com/JonSmart/CordovaYoutubeVideoPlayer via registry.
Probably this is either a connection problem, or plugin spec is incorrect.
Check your connection and plugin name/version/URL.

i also refereed git hub link here https://github.com/JonSmart/CordovaYoutubeVideoPlayer

but there are no issues present.

Any Hints! thanks!

There seem to be issues with cordova plugins and cordova version 7.0.0 +. The plugins now need to include a package.json. For example check this issue.

The youtube plugin does not have package.json

I suggest you downgrade the cordova version to below 7.0.0 till it is fixed.

npm install -g cordova@version_number
