How to Get A Google API Key
Follow the instructions in this short article to get an API key.
To get a particular video using the videos' id:
Create an instance of the YouTube API passing in the path to the downloaded client secret file:
from youtube import YouTube
client_secrets_file = '/home/lyle/Downloads/secrets.json'
youtube = YouTube(client_secrets_file)
youtube.authenticate()
Use the video id to find the video:
video = youtube.find_video_by_id('rfscVS0vtbw')
To find many videos using their id's:
ids = ['rfscVS0vtbw', 'TFa38ONq5PY']
videos = youtube.find_videos(ids)
To find the most popular videos in a given region e.g Kenya, pass in the region code:
popular_kenyan_videos = youtube.find_most_popular_video_by_region('ke')
To search for videos (this returns an iterator):
from youtube.schemas import (
SearchFilter, SearchOptionalParameters, SearchPart, YouTubeResponse, YouTubeRequest
)
from typing import Iterator
from youtube.models import Video
query: str = 'Python programming videos'
max_results: int = 10
part: SearchPart = SearchPart()
optional_parameters: SearchOptionalParameters = SearchOptionalParameters(
q=query,
maxResults=max_results,
type=['video', 'playlist', 'channel']
)
search_request: YouTubeRequest = YouTubeRequest(
part=part,
optional_parameters=optional_parameters
)
video_iterator: Iterator = youtube.get_search_iterator(search_request)
videos: list[Video] = next(video_iterator)
