BREAKING CHANGE

Video views and stars are now reported. As a result any automations triggered by state will now be triggered when the number of views or stars changes. To avoid this, add the url attribute to the trigger so that the automation is only triggered when the reported url changes ie:

trigger:
  - platform: state
    entity_id: sensor.franck_nijhof
    attribute: url

Example configuration.yaml

sensor:
  platform: youtube
  channel_id: UCZ2Ku6wrhdYDHCaBzLaA3bw

key type description
platform (Required) string The platform name.
channel_id (Required) string The Channel ID of the Youtube channel.
