Readme
youtube_selenium_py is a Python package that simplifies interactions with YouTube using Selenium.
(Video iframe, title: "Youtube Selenium Py | Automate Youtube with Selenium and Python)
This package provides functionalities to perform various actions on YouTube, such as creating channels, uploading videos, managing community posts, retrieving channel statistics, and more. It mostly uses Selenium to automate interactions with the YouTube platform. The package has two main classes at this moment, the Youtube
class, and the YoutubeData
class. The Youtube
class is used for creating and getting information for the specific YouTube channel that is signed in, and the YoutubeData
class is used to get some basic information from a YouTube channel and YouTube videos.
Install package via pip:
pip install youtube_selenium_py
Upgrade setuptools (required for undetected chromedriver to work):
pip install --upgrade setuptools
Make sure you have Chromium browser installed on your operating system:
brew install chromium
sudo apt update
sudo apt install chromium-browser
sudo pacman -S chromium
After installation, import the package and utilize its classes and methods. Detailed usage instructions and examples are provided in the documentation.
Here is a quick video I recorded, of me going through the source code of the package, explaining each method, and also testing out the package:
(youtube video href)
from youtube_selenium_py.classes import Youtube
# Initialize the Youtube object
yt = Youtube(email="your_email@example.com", password="your_password")
# There is a 20 second implicit sleep after signing in, because maybe you have 2 step authentication enabled, or it will send confirmation code to your phone. We suggest using a brand new google account, then this won't happen, everything will be automatic.
# Example: Create a channel
channel_creation_result = yt.create_channel()
print(channel_creation_result)
# Example: Upload a video
video_upload_result = yt.create_video(
absolute_video_path="/path/to/video.mp4",
video_title="My Video Title",
video_description="Description of my video"
)
print(video_upload_result)
# Close the driver when done
yt.close()
