# Prismedia
A scripting way to upload videos to peertube and youtube written in python2
## Dependencies
Search in your package manager, otherwise use ``pip install --upgrade``
- google-auth
- google-auth-oauthlib
- google-auth-httplib2
- google-api-python-client
- docopt
- schema
- python-magic
- python-magic-bin
- requests-toolbelt
- tzlocal
## Configuration
Edit peertube_secret and youtube_secret.json with your credentials.
### Peertube
Set your credentials, peertube server URL.
You can get client_id and client_secret by logging in your peertube website and reaching the URL: https://domain.example/api/v1/oauth-clients/local
You can set ``OAUTHLIB_INSECURE_TRANSPORT`` to 1 if you do not use https (not recommended)
### Youtube
Youtube uses combination of oauth and API access to identify.
**Credentials**
The first time you connect, prismedia will open your browser to as you to authenticate to
Youtube and allow the app to use your Youtube channel.
**It is here you choose which channel you will upload to**.
Once authenticated, the token is stored inside the file ``.youtube_credentials.json``.
Prismedia will try to use this file at each launch, and re-ask for authentication if it does not exist.
**Oauth**:
The default youtube_secret.json should allow you to upload some videos.
If you plan an larger usage, please consider creating your own youtube_secret file:
- Go to the [Google console](https://console.developers.google.com/).
- Create project.
- Side menu: APIs & auth -> APIs
- Top menu: Enabled API(s): Enable all Youtube APIs.
- Side menu: APIs & auth -> Credentials.
- Create a Client ID: Add credentials -> OAuth 2.0 Client ID -> Other -> Name: prismedia1 -> Create -> OK
- Download JSON: Under the section "OAuth 2.0 client IDs". Save the file to your local system.
- Save this JSON as your youtube_secret.json file.
