Setup
Youtube API
Talking to the Youtube API requires oauth2 authentication. As such, you must:
Create an account on the Google Developers Console
Register a new app there
Enable the Youtube API (APIs & Services -> Enable APIs and Services)
Create Client ID (APIs & Auth -> Credentials -> Create Credentials), select 'Oauth client ID', select type 'Web application'
Add an 'Authorized redirect URI' of 'http://localhost:8080/oauth2callback'
Download the client secrets JSON file (click download icon next to newly created client ID) and save it as file client_secrets.json in the same directory as the utility e.g.
Code:
{
"web": {
"client_id": "xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx.apps.googleusercontent.com",
"project_id": "youtubeuploader-yyyyy",
"auth_uri": "https://accounts.google.com/o/oauth2/auth",
"token_uri": "https://oauth2.googleapis.com/token",
"auth_provider_x509_cert_url": "https://www.googleapis.com/oauth2/v1/certs",
"client_secret": "xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx",
"redirect_uris": [
"http://localhost:8080/oauth2callback"
]
}
}Usage
At a minimum, just specify a filename:
./youtubeuploader -filename blob.mp4
If it is the first time you've run the utility, a browser window should popup and prompt you to provide Youtube credentials. A token will be created and stored in request.token file in the local directory for subsequent use. To run the utility on a headless-server, generate the token file locally first, then simply copy the token file along with youtubeuploader and client_secrets.json to the remote host.
