Using

Maybe the first step toward moving the package from a Toy package to a usable package.

An API which will take the URL of youtube video and provide metadata of the video and the channel which has uploaded that video .

>>> from pyytdata import vid_info
>>> l=vid_info('https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0fqHuIqkOak')
>>> l.get_title()
'Manoj Bajpayee Vs. Atul Khatri | Epic Middle class Face-off | The Family Man | Amazon Prime Video'
l is a VidInfo object

>>> from pyytdata import PyYtData
>>> obj=PyYtData('flask',1)
>>> vid=obj.get_videoinfo()
>>> vid
[<util.vidinfo.VidInfo object at 0x7ff971539e10>]


#You can fire dir on this object to get the attribute and method of the object.
>>> dir(vid[0])
['_Info__API_KEY', '__class__', '__delattr__', '__dict__', '__dir__', '__doc__', '__eq__', '__format__', '__ge__', '__getattribute__', '__gt__', '__hash__', '__init__', '__init_subclass__', '__le__', '__lt__', '__module__', '__ne__', '__new__', '__reduce__', '__reduce_ex__', '__repr__', '__setattr__', '__sizeof__', '__str__', '__subclasshook__', '__weakref__', '_id', 'channel_info', 'get_description', 'get_image_url', 'get_link', 'get_publishedtime', 'get_title', 'keyword', 'maxlen', 'open_id', 'order', 'result', 'type', 'youtube']

General Info

Under Developement

I think the package has implemented the facade pattern as the lower level packages like videoinfo and chnlinfo are independent from pyytdata and is not exposed to client and also the interaction between querier and videoinfo is hidden from client by providing a interface/module pyytdata
vidoinfo class and Chnlinfo has composition relationship as video does not exists without a channel
