youtube-background Files

The package is named for jQuery in three places it has not needed for years: the plugin itself, deprecated since 1.2.0, and the jquery. prefix on both built files. All three are gone. The factory and every option, event, method and data-vbg-* attribute are unchanged, so upgrading is changing paths and replacing one call.

Removed

• The jQuery plugin. jQuery('[data-vbg]').youtube_background(params) becomes new VideoBackgrounds('[data-vbg]', params). It was the only thing that set window.VIDEO_BACKGROUNDS; nothing sets it now, so keep the instance the constructor returns.

Changed

• The built files are renamed and live in dist/. jquery.youtube-background.js is dist/youtube-background.js and youtube-background-experimental.js is dist/youtube-background-controls.js, minified files and source maps alongside them. import { VideoBackgrounds } from 'youtube-background' is untouched — it resolved to src/ before and still does; only require() and the CDN see the new paths.

Added

• A stylesheet for the controls, dist/youtube-background-controls.css, also reachable as youtube-background/controls.css. The look of the seek bar and of the buttons play-button and mute-button inject only existed inside the demo page before, so anyone using the controls wrote it again from scratch. It is optional; the classes work without it.
• A youtube-background/controls subpath, so the control classes can be imported from a bundler instead of read off window.
