ZytUploader is a Node.js library that simplifies the process of uploading videos to YouTube without the limitations of the Google API. This library, written in TypeScript, utilizes Puppeteer for automation.
Features:
- No upload Limits (50+ videos/day limit set by youtube for every channel)
- Free & Easy to use
Prerequisite:
- Install Nodejs Current Version
Installation:
npm i zyt-uploader
Usage:
To use zyt-uploader, follow these steps:
Import the ZytUploader class and create an instance:
const { ZytUploader } = require('zyt-uploader');
const zytUploader = new ZytUploader();
Authenticate and load cookies:
const credentialsFile = 'youtubeCredentials.json';
const loginParams = {
email: 'your email',
password: 'your password',
launchOptions: {
headless: false,
},
};
await zytUploader.loadCookiesFromFile(credentialsFile).catch(async (e) => {
await zytUploader.loginAndGetCookies(loginParams);
await zytUploader.saveCookiesOnDisk(credentialsFile);
});
Check if cookies are valid and re-authenticate if necessary:
const cookieIsValid = await zytUploader.cookiesIsValid();
if (!cookieIsValid) {
await zytUploader.loginAndGetCookies(loginParams);
}
Upload a video using the uploadVideo method:
const videoUrl = await zytUploader.uploadVideo({
videoPath: 'video.mp4',
title: '👩💻 Video uploaded by zyt-uploader',
description: 'zyt-upload project: https://github.com/zaacksb/zyt-uploader',
thumbnailPath: 'thumbnail.jpg',
tags: ['nodejs', 'zyt'],
visibility: 'unlisted',
launchOptions: {
headless: 'new',
},
});
set up event listeners for progress, logs, errors, daily limit, and upload completion:
zytUploader.on('progress', ({action, percentage, remainingTime}) => {
console.log({action, percentage, remainingTime});
});
zytUploader.on('progressText', (progress) => {
console.log(`Event progress: ${progress}`);
});
zytUploader.on('logs', (log) => {
console.log(log);
});
zytUploader.on('dailyLimit', (message) => {
console.log(message);
});
zytUploader.on('error', (error) => {
console.log(error);
});
zytUploader.on('uploaded', (url) => {
console.log(`Video uploaded: ${url}`);
});
Additional Information
To see the browser window during execution, use headless: false. For headless operation, use headless: "new".
You can monitor the progress of the upload using the 'progress' event, which provides information about the action, percentage, and remaining time.
The 'logs' event logs all messages during the process.
The 'error' event provides error information, including codes and messages.
The 'dailyLimit' event notifies you if you reach the daily upload limit on YouTube.
The 'uploaded' event is triggered when the entire upload process is complete, providing the URL of the uploaded video.
