YTLiveScrape 1.0.3

Simple YouTube Live scrape package

from YTLiveScrape.live_chat_worker import LiveMachine

livestream_id = '3GgSphuyBiY'  # from e.g. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3GgSphuyBiY

L = LiveMachine(livestream_id)

# Start stats loop
L.request_stats()
# Start comments loop
L.request_comments()

Get new comments and stats

comments = L.get_comments()
stats = L.get_stats()

To stop the script

L.stop_scrape()
