YouTube Channel Video, Description, and Thumbnail Downloader : (Linux Version) ytapithumbget.py
YouTube Channel Video Description Uploader : (Linux Version) upload_video3.py
To use this you will have to make your own file called apikey.py and put it in the same directory as ytapithumbget.py
The format needs to be
api_key = "xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"
where the xxxx is YOUR YouTube API key that you get from them... It needs to be in quotes too, as it is a string in Python.
To run, just type the following from your terminal shell:
python3 ytapithumbget.py
It will prompt you for a folder name to store the saved images in - this folder will be created inside a 'youtube_downloads' folder in your installation directory.
Next : run update_video3.py, make sure you have the right "_desc.json" file in the directory where you run these scripts from. You can find the correct file for this in the folder that you made when you ran "ytapithumbget.py"
