YT API Microservice

Made for FamPay hiring task.

Project Goal

To make an API to fetch latest videos sorted in reverse chronological order of their publishing date-time from YouTube for a given tag/search query in a paginated response.

Basic Requirements:

  • Server should call the YouTube API continuously in background (async) with some interval (say 10 seconds) for fetching the latest videos for a predefined search query and should store the data of vid eos (specifically these fields - Video title, description, publishing datetime, thumbnails URLs and any other fields you require) in a database with proper indexes.
  • A GET API which returns the stored video data in a paginated response sorted in descending order of published datetime.
  • It should be scalable and optimised.

Tech Stack
