YOUTUBE_IT is developed by many contributors who are passioned about opensource projects and selflessly donate their time and work. Following that spirit your donations to this project will be destined to the Tuquito Libre Foundation(http://fundacion.tuquito.org.ar) for developing technology projects intended to close the digital gap in Latin America.

youtube_it is the most complete Ruby client for the YouTube GData API. It provides an easy way to access the latest and most complete access to YouTube's video API. In comparison with the earlier Youtube interfaces, this new API and library offers much-improved flexibility around executing complex search queries to obtain well-targeted video search results. In addition, standard video management including but not limited to uploading, deleting, updating, like, dislike, ratings and comments.
* Create a youtube account. * Create a developer key here http://code.google.com/apis/youtube/dashboard. * sudo gem install youtube_it
Note: youtube_it supports ClientLogin(YouTube account), OAuth or AuthSub authentication methods.
You can get an example how you can use youtube_it with Rails 3 here: github.com/chebyte/youtube_it_rails_app_example
You can see to youtube_it in action here: youtube-it.heroku.com
Important: The Account Authentication API for OAuth 1.0, AuthSub and Client Login has been officially deprecated as of April 20, 2012. It will continue to work as per our deprecation policy(developers.google.com/accounts/terms), but we encourage you to migrate to OAuth 2.0 authentication as soon as possible. If you are building a new application, you should use OAuth 2.0 authentication.
Creating a client:
$ require 'youtube_it' $ client = YouTubeIt::Client.new
Client with developer key:
$ client = YouTubeIt::Client.new(:dev_key => "developer_key")
Client with youtube account and developer key:
$ client = YouTubeIt::Client.new(:username => "youtube_username", :password => "youtube_passwd", :dev_key => "developer_key")
Client with AuthSub:
$ client = YouTubeIt::AuthSubClient.new(:token => "token" , :dev_key => "developer_key")
Client with OAuth:
$ client = YouTubeIt::OAuthClient.new("consumer_key", "consumer_secret", "youtube_username", "developer_key")
$ client.authorize_from_access("access_token", "access_secret")
Client with OAuth2:
$ client = YouTubeIt::OAuth2Client.new(client_access_token: "access_token", client_refresh_token: "refresh_token", client_id: "client_id", client_secret: "client_secret", dev_key: "dev_key", expires_at: "expiration time")
If your access token is still valid (be careful, access tokens may only be valid for about 1 hour), you can use the client directly. If you want to refresh the access token using the refresh token just do:
$ client.refresh_access_token!
-
You can see more about oauth 2 in the wiki: github.com/kylejginavan/youtube_it/wiki/How-To:-Use-OAuth-2
you can use multiple profiles in the same account like that $ profiles = client.profiles(['username1','username2']) $ profiles['username1'].username, "username1"
Note: Each type of client enables searching capabilities.
Basic Queries:
$ client.videos_by(:query => "penguin")
$ client.videos_by(:query => "penguin", :page => 2, :per_page => 15)
$ client.videos_by(:query => "penguin", :restriction => "DE")
$ client.videos_by(:query => "penguin", :author => "liz")
$ client.videos_by(:tags => ['tiger', 'leopard'])
$ client.videos_by(:categories => [:news, :sports])
$ client.videos_by(:categories => [:news, :sports], :tags => ['soccer', 'football'])
$ client.videos_by(:user => 'liz')
$ client.videos_by(:favorites, :user => 'liz')
$ client.video_by("FQK1URcxmb4")
$ client.video_by("https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QsbmrCtiEUU")
$ client.video_by_user("chebyte","FQK1URcxmb4")
Standard Queries:
$ client.videos_by(:most_viewed) $ client.videos_by(:most_linked, :page => 3) $ client.videos_by(:top_rated, :time => :today) $ client.get_all_videos(:top_rated, :time => :today) $ client.videos_by(:top_rated, :region => "RU", :category => "News")
Advanced Queries (with boolean operators OR (either), AND (include), NOT (exclude)):
$ client.videos_by(:categories => { :either => [:news, :sports], :exclude => [:comedy] }, :tags => { :include => ['football'], :exclude => ['soccer'] })
Custom Query Params
You can use custom query params like that: $ client.videos_by(:query => "penguin", :safe_search => "strict") $ client.videos_by(:query => "penguin", :duration => "long") $ client.videos_by(:query => "penguin", :hd => "true") $ client.videos_by(:query => "penguin", :region => "AR") you can see more options here https://developers.google.com/youtube/2.0/reference#yt_format
Fields Parameter(experimental features):
Return videos more than 1000 views
$ client.videos_by(:fields => {:view_count => "1000"})
Filter by date
$ client.videos_by(:fields => {:published => (Date.today)})
$ client.videos_by(:fields => {:recorded => (Date.today)})
Filter by date with range
$ client.videos_by(:fields => {:published => ((Date.today - 30)..(Date.today))})
$ client.videos_by(:fields => {:recorded => ((Date.today - 30)..(Date.today))})
Note: These queries do not find private videos! Use these methods instead:
$ client.my_video("FQK1URcxmb4")
$ client.my_videos(:query => "penguin")
Note: YouTube account, OAuth or AuthSub enables video management.

You can give permissions in your videos, for example denied comments, rate, etc... you can read more there http://code.google.com/apis/youtube/2.0/reference.html#youtube_data_api_tag_yt:accessControl you have available the followings options:
-
:rate, :comment, :commentVote, :videoRespond, :list, :embed, :syndicate
with just two values:
-
allowed or denied
Example client = YouTubeIt::Client.new(:username => "youtube_username", :password => "youtube_passwd", :dev_key => "developer_key")
-
upload video with denied comments
client.video_upload(File.open(“test.mov”), :title => “test”,:description => ‘some description’, :category => ‘People’,:keywords => %w[cool blah test], :comment => “denied”)
You can send a single PATCH request to add, replace and/or delete specific fields for a particular resource. client.video_partial_update(video.unique_id, :list => 'denied', :embed => 'allowed')
You can get user activity with the followings params: $ client.activity(user) #default current user
When uploading a video from your browser you need make a form upload with the followings params:
$ upload_token(params, nexturl)
params => params like :title => “title”, :description => “description”, :category => “People”, :keywords => [“test”] nexturl => redirect to this url after upload
Controller
def upload @upload_info = YouTubeIt::Client.new.upload_token(params, videos_url) end
View (upload.html.erb)
<% form_tag @upload_info[:url], :multipart => true do %> <%= hidden_field_tag :token, @upload_info[:token] %> <%= label_tag :file %> <%= file_field_tag :file %> <%= submit_tag "Upload video" %> <% end %>
If the videos has support for widescreen:
$ video.embed_html_with_width(1280)
Note: you can specify width or just use the default of 1280.
Now you can embed videos without use flash using html5, usefull for mobiles that not support flash but has html5 browser
You can specify these options
$ video.embed_html5({:class => 'video-player', :id => 'my-video', :width => '425', :height => '350', :frameborder => '1', :url_params => {:option_one => "value", :option_two => "value"},
fullscreen: true, :sandbox => "value"})
or just use with default options
$ video.embed_html5 #default: width: 425, height: 350, frameborder: 0
YouTubeIt passes all logs through the logger variable on the class itself. In Rails context, assign the Rails logger to that variable to collect the messages (don’t forget to set the level to debug):
$ YouTubeIt.logger = RAILS_DEFAULT_LOGGER $ RAILS_DEFAULT_LOGGER.level = Logger::DEBUG
