      3 Introduction
      4 ============
      5 
      6 Command-line script to upload videos to Youtube using theYoutube [APIv3](https://developers.google.com/youtube/v3/). It should work on any platform (GNU/Linux, BSD, OS X, Windows, ...) that runs Python.
      7 
      8 Dependencies
      9 ============
     10 
     11   * [Python 2.6/2.7/3.x](http://www.python.org).
     12   * Packages: [google-api-python-client](https://developers.google.com/api-client-library/python), [progressbar2](https://pypi.python.org/pypi/progressbar2) (optional).
     13 
     14 Check if your operating system provides those packages (check also those [deb/rpm/mac files](https://github.com/qiuwei/youtube-upload/releases)), otherwise install them with `pip`:
     15 
     16 ```
     17 $ sudo pip install --upgrade google-api-python-client oauth2client progressbar2
     18 ```
     19 
     20 Install
     21 =======
     22 
     23 ```
     24 $ wget https://github.com/tokland/youtube-upload/archive/master.zip
     25 $ unzip master.zip
     26 $ cd youtube-upload-master
     27 $ sudo python setup.py install
     28 ```
     29 
     30 Or run directly from sources:
     31 
     32 ```
     33 $ cd youtube-upload-master
     34 $ PYTHONPATH=. python bin/youtube-upload ...
     35 ```
     36 
     37 Setup
     38 =====
     39 
     40 You'll see that there is no email/password options. Instead, the Youtube API uses [OAuth 2.0](https://developers.google.com/accounts/docs/OAuth2) to authenticate the upload. The first time you try to upload a video, you will be asked to follow a URL in your browser to get an authentication token. If you have multiple channels for the logged in user, you will also be asked to pick which one you want to upload the videos to. You can use multiple credentials, just use the option ```--credentials-file```. Also, check the [token expiration](https://developers.google.com/youtube/v3/) policies.
     41 
     42 The package used to include a default ```client_secrets.json``` file. It does not work anymore, Google has revoked it. So you now must [create and use your own OAuth 2.0 file](https://developers.google.com/youtube/registering_an_application), it's a free service. Steps:
     43 
     44 * Go to the Google [console](https://console.developers.google.com/).
     45 * _Create project_.
     46 * Side menu: _APIs & auth_ -> _APIs_
     47 * Top menu: _Enabled API(s)_: Enable all Youtube APIs.
     48 * Side menu: _APIs & auth_ -> _Credentials_.
     49 * _Create a Client ID_: Add credentials -> OAuth 2.0 Client ID -> Other -> Name: youtube-upload -> Create -> OK
     50 * _Download JSON_: Under the section "OAuth 2.0 client IDs". Save the file to your local system. 
     51 * Use this JSON as your credentials file: `--client-secrets=CLIENT_SECRETS` or copy it to `~/client_secrets.json`.
     52 
     53 *Note: ```client_secrets.json``` is a file you can download from the developer console, the credentials file is something auto generated after the first time the script is run and the google account sign in is followed, the file is stored at ```~/.youtube-upload-credentials.json```.*
     54 
     55 Examples
     56 ========
     57 
     58 * Upload a video (a valid `~/.client_secrets.json` should exist, check the Setup section):
     59 
     60 ```
     61 $ youtube-upload --title="A.S. Mutter" anne_sophie_mutter.flv
     62 pxzZ-fYjeYs
     63 ```
     64 
     65 * Upload a video with extra metadata, with your own client secrets and credentials file, and to a playlist (if not found, it will be created):
     66 
     67 ```
     68 $ youtube-upload \
     69   --title="A.S. Mutter" " \
     70   --description="A.S. Mutter plays Beethoven" \
     71   --category="Music" \
     72   --tags="mutter, beethoven" \
     73   --recording-date="2011-03-10T15:32:17.0Z" \
     74   --default-language="en" \
     75   --default-audio-language="en" \
     76   --client-secrets="my_client_secrets.json" \
     77   --credentials-file="my_credentials.json" \
     78   --playlist="My favorite music" \
     79   --embeddable=True|False \
     80   anne_sophie_mutter.flv
     81 tx2Zb-145Yz
     82 ```
     83 *Other extra medata available :* 
     84  ```
     85  --privacy (public | unlisted | private)  
     86  --publish-at (YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm:ss.sZ)  
     87  --location (latitude=VAL,longitude=VAL[,altitude=VAL])  
     88  --thumbnail (string)  
     89  ```
     90 
     91 * Upload a video using a browser GUI to authenticate:
     92 
     93 ```
     94 $ youtube-upload --title="A.S. Mutter" --auth-browser anne_sophie_mutter.flv
     95 ```
     96 
     97 * Split a video with _ffmpeg_
     98 
     99 If your video is too big or too long for Youtube limits, split it before uploading:
    100 
    101 ```
    102 $ bash examples/split_video_for_youtube.sh video.avi
    103 video.part1.avi
    104 video.part2.avi
    105 video.part3.avi
    106 ```
    107 * Use a HTTP proxy
    108 
    109 Set environment variables *http_proxy* and *https_proxy*:
    110 
    111 ```
    112 $ export http_proxy=http://user:password@host:port
    113 $ export https_proxy=$http_proxy
    114 $ youtube-upload ....
    115 ```
    116 
    117 Get available categories
    118 ========================
    119 
    120 * Go to the [API Explorer](https://developers.google.com/apis-explorer)
    121 - Search "youtube categories" -> *youtube.videoCategories.list*
    122 - This bring you to [youtube.videoCategories.list service](https://developers.google.com/apis-explorer/#search/youtube%20categories/m/youtube/v3/youtube.videoCategories.list)
    123 - part: `id,snippet`
    124 - regionCode: `es` (2 letter code of your country)
    125 - _Authorize and execute_
    126 
    127 And see the JSON response below. Note that categories with the attribute `assignable` equal to `false` cannot be used.
    128 
    129 Using [shoogle](https://github.com/tokland/shoogle):
    130 
    131 ```
    132 $ shoogle execute --client-secret-file client_secret.json \
    133                   youtube:v3.videoCategories.list <(echo '{"part": "id,snippet", "regionCode": "es"}')  | 
    134     jq ".items[] | select(.snippet.assignable) | {id: .id, title: .snippet.title}"
    135 ```
    136 
    137 Notes for developers
    138 ====================
    139 
    140 * Main logic of the upload: [main.py](youtube_upload/main.py) (function ```upload_video```).
    141 * Check the [Youtube Data API](https://developers.google.com/youtube/v3/docs/).
    142 * Some Youtube API [examples](https://github.com/youtube/api-samples/tree/master/python) provided by Google.
    143 
    144 Alternatives
    145 ============
    146 
    147 * [shoogle](https://github.com/tokland/shoogle) can send requests to any Google API service, so it can be used not only to upload videos, but also to perform any operation regarding the Youtube API.
    148 
    149 * [youtubeuploader](https://github.com/porjo/youtubeuploader) uploads videos to Youtube from local disk or from the web. It also provides rate-limited uploads.
