🚀 Quick Start

Installation

# Install with PDM (recommended)
pip install pdm
pdm install yt_streams

# Or install with pip
pip install yt_streams

Basic Usage

from yt_streams import PoolController, BrowserOptions

# Create browser options with stealth
options = BrowserOptions(
    headless=False,
    stealth=True,
    random_user_agent=True
)

# Create controller
controller = PoolController(
    url="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dQw4w9WgXcQ",
    workers=3,
    browser=options
)

# Start and control
controller.start()
controller.broadcast(Command(play_seconds=30))
controller.stop()

Streamlit Dashboard

# Start the web interface
yt-streams serve-streamlit --workers 5 --no-headless --stealth

Access the dashboard at: http://localhost:8502
