Installation ------------ [](#installation) Add the following to your `composer.json`. ``` "billyriantono/youtube": "dev-master" ``` After you've added the above, run `composer update` to pull it in. Once your update has finished, we'll need to add the service provider to your `config/app.php` ``` 'providers' => [ 'billyriantono\Youtube\YoutubeServiceProvider', ], ``` Then add the alias... ``` 'aliases' => [ 'Youtube' => 'billyriantono\Youtube\YoutubeFacade', ], ``` Configuration ------------- [](#configuration) Run `php artisan vendor:publish` to publish the migrations and config. Then migrate the database with, `php artisan migrate`. This will create our `youtube_access_tokens` and `channels` table which will of course, hold our access tokens once we've authenticated with Google. Next it's time to configure our settings in `config/youtube.php` makes use of environment variables to ensure no secret crentials make way into version control. So add the following variables to your `.env` file. ``` GOOGLE_CLIENT_ID=YOUR_CLIENT_ID GOOGLE_CLIENT_SECRET=YOUR_SECRET YOUTUBE_APPLICATION_NAME="Your Application Name" YOUTUBE_REDIRECT_URI="Your Callback Uri" for example : youtube-callback YOUTUBE_AUTHENTICATION_URI="Your Authentication Uri" YOUTUBE_AFTER_REDIRECT_URI="Your Custom Controller after getting access token" GOOGLE_APPROVAL_PROMPT="auto|force" ``` You can find these values on Google's [developer console](https://console.developers.google.com/project) for your application. Now set up your applications callback, you can find this on your `config/youtube.php`. By default it's set to `http://yourapp.co.uk/youtube-callback` ``` 'redirect_uri' => 'youtube-callback' ``` *If you're unsure of how to use enviroment variables, Jeffrey Way helps clear the fog over at Laracasts with his [Environments and Configuration](https://laracasts.com/series/laravel-5-fundamentals/episodes/6) lesson with Laravel 5.* Authentication -------------- [](#authentication) Now our application is configured, we'll go through the inital authentication with Google. By default, the authorization route is `/youtube-auth` but you can change this in `config/youtube.php` should you wish to. Proceed with hitting the auth route in your application of which you will be sent to Google to authorize your YouTube account/channel. Once authorized, you will be redirected back to your application assuming you correctly configured your callback. Upload a Video ============== [](#upload-a-video) Once you have complete the above, your Laravel application will now be authorized to make requests to YouTube. Specifically in this case, uploading a video by passing the **full path to the file you wish to upload.**. To upload a video, do the following: ``` $id = Youtube::upload($pathToMovieFile); return $id; ``` The above will return the ID of the uploaded video to YouTube. You also have the option to pass a second parameter as an array with the following available keys. - title `string` - description `string` - category\_id `integer` - tags `array` ``` $params = [ 'title' => 'Laravel Screencast', 'description' => 'My First Laravel Tutorial!', 'category_id' => 10, 'tags' => [ 'laravel', 'eloquent', 'awesome' // Of course! ] ]; $id = Youtube::upload($pathToMovieFile, $params); return $id; ``` It's that simple! Deleting a Video ================ [](#deleting-a-video) If you would like to delete a video, which of course is uploaded to your authorized channel, you will also have the ability to delete it: ``` Youtube::delete($id); ``` When deleting a video, it will check if exists before attempting to delete.
