GOAL

Created this package to simplify some typical tasks related to the Youtube API. See the examples/usage.

Quickstart

This guide covers the most basic usage of the library.

Installation

Pytubev3 requires an installation of Python 3.7 or greater, as well as pip. (Pip is typically bundled with Python installations.)

To install from PyPI with pip:

python -m pip install pytubev3

USAGE

Create an object

from pytubev3 import Pytube
import os

#set API Key as environment variable
#API_KEY = os.environ.get("YOUTUBE_DATA_API2")
#or
API_KEY = "Enter Your API Key"
pT = Pytube(API_KEY, region_code = "US", lang = "en")

Examples

The class provides a set of methods for interacting with the YouTube API. The methods include:

Get Video Categories of a Region

vid_cat = pT.country_video_cat()
print(vid_cat)

Search Youtube Channels by Keyword and Location (Latitude and Longitude)

channels = pT.chs_By_Keyword_Location(search_term = "Python", \
			location_lat_long = "37.42307,-122.08427", \
			location_radius = "10mi", required_results = 5, \
			order_method = "relevance", \
			published_after = "2010-01-01T00:00:00Z")

print(channels)

Search Youtube Channels by Keyword and Region Code

pT = Pytube(API_KEY, region_code = "US", lang = "en")
channels = pT.chs_By_Keyword_RegionCode(search_term = "Python", \
			required_results = 5, order_method = "relevance", \
			published_after = "2010-01-01T00:00:00Z")

print(channels)

Get Channel's Stats By Using Channel IDs

pT = Pytube(API_KEY, region_code = "US", lang = "en")
channelIDs = ["UCdgU4pljNproO0RQVbT5QKg", "UC4Xt-DUAapAtkfaWWkv4OAw"]
channels_stat = pT.channels_stats(channelIDs)
print(channels_stat)

Get Video IDs from Playlists by Using Playlist IDs

pT = Pytube(API_KEY, region_code = "US", lang = "en")
playlist_ids = ["UUdgU4pljNproO0RQVbT5QKg"]
videoIDs = pT.video_ids(playlist_ids)
print(videoIDs)

Get Video Details by using Video IDs

pT = Pytube(API_KEY, region_code = "US", lang = "en")
videoIds = ["sUg-XFx4xf0", "QCyz936VoYM"]
videoDetails = pT.video_details(videoIds)
print(videoDetails)
