API

Command line

vidcrawler --input_crawl_json "fetch_list.json" --output_json "out_list.json"

Python

from vidcrawler import crawl_video_sites

crawl_list = [
    ["channel name", "source", "channel_id"]
]
output = crawl_video_sites(crawl_list)

"source" and "channel_id" are used to generate the video-platform-specific urls to fetch data. The "channel name" is echo'd back in the generated json feeds, but doesn't not affect the fetching process in any way.

Testing

Install vidcrawler and then the command vidcralwer_test will become available.

$ pip install vidcrawler
$ vidcrawler_test

Example input fetch_list.json
