+ Using the YouTube Data API+ The YouTube Data API offers read and write access to YouTube's content. + Users can perform unauthenticated requests to Google Data feeds to + retrieve feeds of popular videos, comments, public information about + YouTube user profiles, user playlists, favorites, subscriptions and so on. + + ++ For more information on the YouTube Data API, please refer + to the official » PHP + Developer's Guide on code.google.com. + + +Authentication+ The YouTube Data API allows read-only access to public data, which + does not require authentication. For any write requests, a user + needs to authenticate either using ClientLogin or AuthSub authentication. Please refer + to the » Authentication + section in the PHP Developer's Guide for more detail. + +Developer Keys and Client ID+ A developer key identifies the YouTube developer that is submitting + an API request. A client ID identifies your application for logging + and debugging purposes. Please visit » http://code.google.com/apis/youtube/dashboard/ + to obtain a developer key and client ID. The example below demonstrates how to pass the + developer key and client ID to the » Zend_Gdata_YouTube + service object. + + +Example #1 Passing a Developer Key and ClientID to Zend_Gdata_YouTube
Retrieving public video feeds+ The YouTube Data API provides numerous feeds that return a list of + videos, such as standard feeds, related videos, video responses, + user's uploads, and user's favorites. For example, the + user's uploads feed returns all videos uploaded by a specific user. See the » YouTube + API reference guide for a detailed list of available + feeds. + + +Searching for videos by metadata+ You can retrieve a list of videos that match specified + search criteria, using the YouTubeQuery class. The following query + looks for videos which contain the word "cat" in their + metadata, starting with the 10th video and displaying 20 + videos per page, ordered by the view count. + + +Example #2 Searching for videos
+ For more details on the different query parameters, please refer to the » + Reference Guide. The available helper functions in » Zend_Gdata_YouTube_VideoQuery + for each of these parameters are described in more detail in the » PHP + Developer's Guide. + +Searching for videos by categories and tags/keywords+ Searching for videos in specific categories is done by generating a » specially + formatted URL. For example, to search for + comedy videos which contain the keyword dog: + + +Example #3 Searching for videos in specific categories
Retrieving standard feeds+ The YouTube Data API has a number of » standard + feeds. These standard feeds can be retrieved as » Zend_Gdata_YouTube_VideoFeed + objects using the specified URLs, using the predefined constants + within the » Zend_Gdata_YouTube + class (Zend_Gdata_YouTube::STANDARD_TOP_RATED_URI for example) or + using the predefined helper methods (see code listing below). + + ++ To retrieve the top rated videos using the helper method: + + +Example #4 Retrieving a standard video feed
+ There are also query parameters to specify the time period + over which the standard feed is computed. + + ++ For example, to retrieve the top rated videos for today: + + +Example #5 Using a Zend_Gdata_YouTube_VideoQuery to Retrieve Videos
+ Alternatively, you could just retrieve the feed using the + URL: + + +Example #6 Retrieving a video feed by URL
Retrieving videos uploaded by a user+ You can retrieve a list of videos uploaded by a particular user + using a simple helper method. This example retrieves videos + uploaded by the user 'liz'. + + +Example #7 Retrieving videos uploaded by a specific user
Retrieving videos favorited by a user+ You can retrieve a list of a user's favorite videos + using a simple helper method. This example retrieves videos + favorited by the user 'liz'. + + +Example #8 Retrieving a user's favorite videos
Retrieving video responses for a video+ You can retrieve a list of a video's video responses + using a simple helper method. This example retrieves video + response for a video with the ID 'abc123813abc'. + + +Example #9 Retrieving a feed of video responses
Retrieving video comments+ The comments for each YouTube video can be retrieved in + several ways. To retrieve the comments for the video with + the ID 'abc123813abc', use the following code: + + +Example #10 Retrieving a feed of video comments from a video ID + Comments can also be retrieved for a video if you have a copy of the » Zend_Gdata_YouTube_VideoEntry + object: + + +Example #11 Retrieving a Feed of Video Comments from a Zend_Gdata_YouTube_VideoEntry
Retrieving playlist feeds+ The YouTube Data API provides information about users, including + profiles, playlists, subscriptions, and more. + + +Retrieving the playlists of a user+ The library provides a helper method to retrieve + the playlists associated with a given user. To retrieve the + playlists for the user 'liz': + + +Example #12 Retrieving the playlists of a user Retrieving a specific playlist+ The library provides a helper method to retrieve + the videos associated with a given playlist. To retrieve the + playlists for a specific playlist entry: + + +Example #13 Retrieving a specific playlist
Retrieving a list of a user's subscriptions+ A user can have several types of subscriptions: channel + subscription, tag subscription, or favorites subscription. A » Zend_Gdata_YouTube_SubscriptionEntry + is used to represent individual subscriptions. + + ++ To retrieve all subscriptions for the user 'liz': + + +Example #14 Retrieving all subscriptions for a user
Retrieving a user's profile+ You can retrieve the public profile information + for any YouTube user. To retrieve the profile + for the user 'liz': + + + +Uploading Videos to YouTube+ Please make sure to review the diagrams in the » protocol + guide on code.google.com for a high-level + overview of the upload process. Uploading videos can be done in one of + two ways: either by uploading the video directly or by sending just the video + meta-data and having a user upload the video through an HTML form. + + ++ In order to upload a video directly, you must first construct a new » Zend_Gdata_YouTube_VideoEntry + object and specify some required meta-data. The following example shows uploading the + Quicktime video "mytestmovie.mov" to YouTube with the following properties: + + +
+ The code below creates a blank » Zend_Gdata_YouTube_VideoEntry + to be uploaded. A » Zend_Gdata_App_MediaFileSource + object is then used to hold the actual video file. Under the hood, the » Zend_Gdata_YouTube_Extension_MediaGroup + object is used to hold all of the video's meta-data. Our helper methods detailed below + allow you to just set the video meta-data without having to worry about the media group + object. The $uploadUrl is the location where the new entry gets posted to. + This can be specified either with the $userName of the + currently authenticated user, or, alternatively, you can simply use the + string 'default' to refer to the currently authenticated user. + + +Example #16 Uploading a video
+ To upload a video as private, simply use: $myVideoEntry->setVideoPrivate(); prior to + performing the upload. $videoEntry->isVideoPrivate() can be used to check whether a + video entry is private or not. + +Browser-based upload+ Browser-based uploading is performed almost identically to direct uploading, + except that you do not attach a » Zend_Gdata_App_MediaFileSource + object to the » Zend_Gdata_YouTube_VideoEntry + you are constructing. Instead you simply submit all of your video's meta-data to receive + back a token element which can be used to construct an HTML upload + form. + + +Example #17 Browser-based upload
+ The above code prints out a link and a token that is used to construct an + HTML form to display in the user's browser. A simple example form is + shown below with $tokenValue representing the content of the returned token element, + as shown being retrieved from $myVideoEntry above. In order for the user + to be redirected to your website after submitting the form, make sure to + append a $nextUrl parameter to the $postUrl above, which functions in the + same way as the $next parameter of an AuthSub link. The only difference is + that here, instead of a single-use token, a status and an id variable are + returned in the URL. + + +Example #18 Browser-based upload: Creating the HTML form
Checking upload status+ After uploading a video, it will immediately be visible in an + authenticated user's uploads feed. However, it will not be public on + the site until it has been processed. Videos that have been rejected or + failed to upload successfully will also only be in the authenticated + user's uploads feed. The following code checks the status of a » Zend_Gdata_YouTube_VideoEntry + to see if it is not live yet or if it has been rejected. + + +Example #19 Checking video upload status
Other Functions+ In addition to the functionality described above, the YouTube API + contains many other functions that allow you to modify video meta-data, + delete video entries and use the full range of community features on the site. Some of + the community features that can be modified through the API include: + ratings, comments, playlists, subscriptions, user profiles, contacts and messages. + ++ Please refer to the full documentation available in the » PHP Developer's + Guide on code.google.com. + ++ +
