react-youtube-autocomplete

A responsive React-based auto-suggest search box for Youtube apps.

I like to build apps on top of Youtube. Sometimes you need to let users search for videos on Youtube within your app.
Just drop this component into your Youtube-friendly React.js app and you'll get a fully functional auto-suggest-enabled search box.

_onSearchResultsFound(results) {
// Results is an array of retreived search results
// I use flux, so I dispatch results to an action
flux.actions.showSearchResults(results);
}
}
