• Extra support enables you to export reports in a variety of filetypes and to a number of DataFrame formats
• Easy enough for beginners, but powerful enough for advanced users

Installation

Installing analytix

To install the latest stable version of analytix, use the following command:

pip install analytix

You can also install the latest development version using the following command:

pip install git+https://github.com/parafoxia/analytix

You may need to prefix these commands with a call to the Python interpreter depending on your OS and Python configuration.

OAuth authentication

All requests to the YouTube Analytics API need to be authorised through OAuth 2. In order to do this, you will need a Google Developers project with the YouTube Analytics API enabled. You can find instructions on how to do that in the API setup guide.

Once a project is set up, analytix handles authorisation — including token refreshing — for you.

More details regarding how and when refresh tokens expire can be found on the Google Identity documentation.

Usage

This is an alpha version, and is subject to change.

Compatibility

Python 3.11 or above is required. The CPython and PyPy implementations are both officially supported. Windows, MacOS, and Linux are all supported.

Support for other configurations or functionality requiring optional libraries cannot be guaranteed.
