youtube_search
Python function for searching for youtube videos to avoid using their heavily rate-limited API
To avoid using the API, this uses the form on the youtube homepage and scrapes the resulting page.
Example Usage
For a basic search (and all of the current functionality), you can use the search tool as follows:
pip install youtube-search
from youtube_search import YoutubeSearch
results = YoutubeSearch('search terms', max_results=10).to_json()
print(results)
# returns a json string
########################################
results = YoutubeSearch('search terms', max_results=10).to_dict()
print(results)
# returns a dictionary
