NodeJS Youtube Upload Test

Test application that tests Youtube Upload API NodeJS module. This is a modification of the test-youtube-api repository, and also uses the node-youtube-resumable-upload npm package.

Before you start

1. You need a Google Account to access the Google APIs Console, request an API key, and register your application.

2. Register your application with Google so that it can submit API requests.

3. After registering your application, select the YouTube Data API as one of the services that your application uses:

• Go to the APIs Console and select the project that you just registered.
• Click on the Services pane.
• In the list of APIs, find the YouTube Data API and change its status to ON.

1. Familiarize yourself with the core concepts of the JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) data format. JSON is a common, language-independent data format that provides a simple text representation of arbitrary data structures. For more information, see json.org.
