YouTube now returning broken video

[stephenyeargin]

Reproduction steps:

user> hubot yt star wars
hubot> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UKY3scPIMd8&feature=youtube_gdata

This is a result of an announced change in their API documentation. The fix will be to switch to an authenticated mode (via OAuth2) to restore functionality.

New endpoint example:

GET https://www.googleapis.com/youtube/v3/search?part=snippet&q=star+wars&key={YOUR_API_KEY}

This is actually a lot easier than I thought it was. You can simply go into the Google API Console with an authenticated account and obtain a non-auth'd token rather than going through the entire OAuth2 song and dance. As this package does not interact with user data, this is the ideal route.

Public API access
Use of this key does not require any user action or consent, does not grant access to any account information, and is not used for authorization.

+1, love to see the PR merged and the issue fixed. 😁

@seanCodes #4 should take care of it. Can you give it a spin? Should be a simple matter of updating your package.json file to include:

{
    "hubot-youtube": "git://github.com/stephenyeargin/hubot-youtube.git#bug/3-broken-youtube-search"
}

If it passes, adding a 👍 to the PR may help move it along.
