THANKS

======

Inspired by `Python-Twitter `_.

Thanks a lot for Python-Twitter Developers.

============

Introduction

============

Library provides an easy way to use YouTube Data API V3.

.. 

    Recently, we are working on the new structure for the library. `Read docs `_ to get more detail.

=============

Documentation

=============

You can view the latest ``python-youtube`` documentation at: https://sns-sdks.github.io/python-youtube/.

Also view the full ``YouTube DATA API`` docs at: https://developers.google.com/youtube/v3/docs/.

==========

Installing

==========

You can install this lib from PyPI:

.. code:: shell

    pip install --upgrade python-youtube

    # ✨🍰✨

=====

Using

=====

Now, the library covers all resource methods, including ``insert``,``update`` and so on.

Currently, we recommend using ``pyyoutube.Client`` to operate DATA API. It has more features.

Work with Client

----------------

You can just initialize with an api key:

.. code-block:: python

    >>> from pyyoutube import Client

    >>> client = Client(api_key="your api key")

If you want to get some authorization data. you need to initialize with an access token:

.. code-block:: python

    >>> from pyyoutube import Client

    >>> client = Client(access_token='your access token')

You can read the docs to see how to get an access token.

Or you can ask for user to do oauth flow:

.. code-block:: python

    >>> from pyyoutube import Client

    >>> client = Client(client_id="client key", client_secret="client secret")

    >>> client.get_authorize_url()

    ('https://accounts.google.com/o/oauth2/v2/auth?response_type=code&client_id=id&redirect_uri=https%3A%2F%2Flocalhost%2F&scope=scope&state=PyYouTube&access_type=offline&prompt=select_account', 'PyYouTube')

    >>> client.generate_access_token(authorization_response="link for response")

    AccessToken(access_token='token', expires_in=3599, token_type='Bearer')

Now you can use the instance to get data from YouTube.

Get channel detail:

    >>> cli.channels.list(channel_id="UC_x5XG1OV2P6uZZ5FSM9Ttw")

    ChannelListResponse(kind='youtube#channelListResponse')

    >>> cli.channels.list(channel_id="UC_x5XG1OV2P6uZZ5FSM9Ttw", return_json=True)

    {'kind': 'youtube#channelListResponse',

     'etag': 'eHSYpB_FqHX8vJiGi_sLCu0jkmE',

    ...

    }

To get more usage to see our `client docs `_, or `client examples `_

Work with API

----------------

..

    We still support the old way for the sake of compatibility with older users.

You can just initialize with an api key:

.. code-block:: python

    >>> from pyyoutube import Api

    >>> api = Api(api_key="your api key")

If you want to get some authorization data. you need to initialize with an access token:

.. code-block:: python

    >>> from pyyoutube import Api

    >>> api = Api(access_token='your access token')

You can read the docs to see how to get an access token.

Or you can ask for user to do oauth flow:

.. code-block:: python

    >>> from pyyoutube import Api

    >>> api = Api(client_id="client key", client_secret="client secret")

    # Get authorization url

    >>> api.get_authorization_url()

    ('https://accounts.google.com/o/oauth2/v2/auth?response_type=code&client_id=id&redirect_uri=https%3A%2F%2Flocalhost%2F&scope=scope&state=PyYouTube&access_type=offline&prompt=select_account', 'PyYouTube')

    # user to do

    # copy the response url

    >>> api.generate_access_token(authorization_response="link for response")

    AccessToken(access_token='token', expires_in=3599, token_type='Bearer')

Now you can use the instance to get data from YouTube.

Get channel detail:

.. code-block:: python

    >>> channel_by_id = api.get_channel_info(channel_id="UC_x5XG1OV2P6uZZ5FSM9Ttw")

    >>> channel_by_id.items

    [Channel(kind='youtube#channel', id='UC_x5XG1OV2P6uZZ5FSM9Ttw')]

    >>> channel_by_id.items[0].to_dict()

    {'kind': 'youtube#channel',
