a small Python script that lists a youtube playlist into a google spreadsheet Yea, that was the proposed name for the repo, I have no originality, don't @ me.
requires python 3 with pip To run the source code, you need:
To be able to use this script, you need a google application created here, that has access to the Youtube API v3
and the Google Sheets API
with file editing permissions. You should then get 2 thigs:
- For the
Google Spreadsheets API
, you will get a file, that contains a JSON objet (you can follow this tutorial to be sure to do it right). You sould rename that fileclient.secret.json
and place it alongside themain.py
file. - For the
Youtube API
, you will simply get a OAuth2 token, that you sould be putting in aclient.secret.txt
, alongsidemain.py
. After that, simply execute the script usingpython main.py
.
As the YouTube and Google SpreadSheet API will surely change in the future, I will probably not update this script. This was a script I made for a very specific purpose, and I will probably not feel the need to update it anymore. You are, however, free and encouraged to make pull requests to update it yourself.
