### Project Goal ✨
To make an API to fetch latest videos sorted in reverse chronological order of their publishing date-time from YouTube for a given tag/search query in a paginated response.
## About it :scroll:
* choose any search query, for example: official, cricket, football and GET API will returns the stored video data in a paginated response sorted in descending order of published datetime.
* Added support for supplying multiple API keys so that if quota is exhausted on one, it automatically uses the next available key.
## Tech Stack :memo:
* Django
* Django Rest Framework
* YouTube data v3 API
## Setting Up 🔨
Setup Steps
- Clone the Repository
```
$ git clone https://github.com/ankitjaadoo/Fetch_Youtube_Videos_API
```
- Go the the folder
```
$ cd fetch_youtube_video_API

```
- Activate the virtual environment
```
$ source env/Scripts/activate - for Windows

```
- Install dependencies using
```
$ pip install -r requirements.txt
```
- Modify settings.py File - Remove the existing keys and add your own YouTube Data API keys in the form [key1, key2, ...]:
```
$ API_KEYS = ['Google_API_Key_1', 'Google_API_Key_2','Google_API_Key_3',]
```
- Make migrations using

## Reference:
YouTube data v3 API: https://developers.google.com/youtube/v3/getting-started
Search API reference: https://developers.google.com/youtube/v3/docs/search/list
To fetch the latest videos you need to specify these: type=video, order=date, publishedAfter=
Without publishedAfter, it will give you cached results which will be too old
