This is a plugin for pretalx that provides an integration with Youtube, allowing you to embed recordings on talk pages.
API
Reading data
The Plugin supplies an API at /api/events/<event>/p/youtube/ that returns all configured Youtube URLs:
{
"count": 1,
"next": null,
"previous": null,
"results": [
{
"submission": "DPC6RT",
"youtube_link": "https://youtube.com/watch?v=AAAAAB",
"video_id": "AAAAAB"
},
]
}
A detail view for specific submissions is available at /api/events/<event>/p/youtube/<code>/:
{
"submission": "DPC6RT",
"youtube_link": "https://youtube.com/watch?v=AAAAAB",
"video_id": "AAAAAB"
}
Writing data
You can use POST requests against the list endpoint and PATCH or PUT requests against the detail endpoint to create or update Youtube links. The video_id field is required, as is the submission field unless you are using PATCH. The submission field must be the code of an existing submission, and the API will take care of updating existing links if you use POST, so it’s safe to just always POST to the list endpoint.
You can also bulk import data in either JSON or CSV format. The JSON format is the same as the one used by the API, and the CSV format is a simple CSV file with a header row containing the fields submission and video_id. You can upload the file to /api/events/<event>/p/youtube/import/ using a POST request with the file as the body. (For JSON, you can also instead put the data in the request body.)
c3voc publishing webhook
If you use the c3voc voctopublish tool to upload recordings to YouTube, the plugin can receive the publishing notification and attach the YouTube link to the matching session automatically.
Go to the plugin’s settings page in the organiser backend to find the webhook URL and a freshly-generated token. In your voctopublish ticket, configure the webhook URL and set the webhook password (webhook_pass) to the token — leave the username empty so voctopublish uses the Authorization header. Always use HTTPS to protect the token in transit.
The token is a shared secret. Anyone who knows it can set YouTube links on your sessions, so keep it private. Use the Generate new token button in the settings to rotate it if you believe it has leaked.
Development setup
Make sure that you have a working pretalx development setup.
Clone this repository, eg to local/pretalx-youtube.
Install the plugin in editable mode: uv pip install -e .
Restart your local pretalx server. You can now use the plugin from this repository for your events by enabling it in the ‘plugins’ tab in the settings.
Development commands
This plugin uses just as a task runner and uv for dependency management. Run just with no arguments to list every available command. The most useful ones are:
- just fmt
Auto-format and lint the code.
- just test
Run the full test suite with pytest.
Installing pretalx
The tests need pretalx installed in the environment. just test handles this for you: if pretalx cannot be imported, it installs the latest version from git before running the test suite.
If you already have a development version of pretalx around (for example if you want to test your changes against a specific commit or branch of pretalx), you can also install pretalx up front yourself:
- just install-pretalx-local /path/to/pretalx
Install pretalx from a local checkout as an editable install.
- just install-pretalx
Install the latest pretalx from git (runs before tests if no pretalx is installed).
