The flutter package Youtube_Player_IFrame is not working for me


I am completely stumped on what I should do. I used the sample code from youtube_player_iframe to play a single youtube video. The only thing I changed was the videoID. Here is my code:

import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
import 'package:youtube_player_iframe/youtube_player_iframe.dart';

class Project extends StatelessWidget{
  final String title;
  final String details;
  final String url;
  const Project(this.title,this.details,this.url,{super.key});

  @override 
  Widget build(BuildContext context){
      YoutubePlayerController _controller = YoutubePlayerController.fromVideoId(
        videoId: 'TYX3wGsKpwI',
        autoPlay: false,
        params: YoutubePlayerParams(showFullscreenButton: true),
      );

    return Container(
      height:400,
      child: YoutubePlayer(
        controller: _controller,
        aspectRatio: 16 / 9,
      ),
    );
  }
}

This is the error I get when I hot-reload the page:

The following assertion was thrown building Project(dirty):

testing, `WebViewPlatform.instance` can be set with your own test implementation."

The relevant error-causing widget was:

I am creating a flutter website, not an app so I only have to worry about it working as a website. I tried adding webview_flutter to my dependencies in pubspec.yaml to see if that would help but nothing happened.

youtube_player_iframe: ^5.1.2
  webview_flutter: ^4.7.0

Solution

  • I figured out what the problems was. Someone commented about rebuilding the project, so I just restarted my computer all together too while I was at it. And it works now!
