The YouTube - Automations repo is a collection of the following three YouTube automations scripts:
- YouTube Channel Tracker
- YouTube Downloader
- Youtube Channel Like ratio
The YouTube Channel Tracker is a simple python script that opens Youtube when your favorite Youtuber uploads a new video. In this way, you can watch your favorite Youtuber's new video as soon as it is published! It uses the YouTube API to accomplish this task. It also automatically likes the video!
You'll need three things to get this script working:
- YouTube API Key
- Channel ID of the YouTube channel you want to track
- Channel name of the YouTube channel you want to track
Note: Provide each of this thing in the code respectively.
YouTube API key is the base of this script. Get the API key from here. It is used to get the data from the YouTube API.
Paste it as the value for api_key variable.
You would have to provide the channel ID of the youtube channel you want to track.
For example:
The channel ID is the highlighted part of the URL, present just after the channel parameter. You'll get such url when you visit a Youtube channel's home page.
Paste it as the value for channel_id variable.
Pretty obvious, the name of the channel you want to track (channel_name).
The Youtube Downloader is an interface to download youtube videos with the help of pytube module. You can download any Youtube video by providing just the video url, download location, the desired format and resolution.
- Download any YouTube video in desired format (audio/video)
- Download the video in desired resolution
- Download playlists as a whole, again in desired format and resolution
- Watch the download progress
- Efficient exception handling
The Youtube Channel Like ratio computes the average like ratio of any Youtube channel by fetching the video ids of the 25 latest videos that's been uploaded on the channel and extracting the number of likes and dislikes from this link. It uses scrapetube package to fetch the video ids of the channel. Note that you need to pass the channel ID as a parameter to the get_video_ids function.
