This is a simple hobby project which I was really curious about to implement. This is a Telegram bot which uses Youtube Data API v3 to upload videos to Youtube.

• Pyrogram
• Google Client API

❗ This project requires Python3.6 or higher

Go to Credentials page, select your project Youtube Uploader create a new credential with other as type. Copy the CLIENT_ID and CLIENT_SECRET and paste them to config.py

Run bot

Lets run our bot for the first time!

If you did everything correctly, the bot should be running. Go do /start to see if the bot is live or not. Follow the instructions provided by bot to setup authorisation and to start uploading.

Or the easy way of directly deploying to heroku

This project is actively maintained and will continue so until I'm tired of it.

• With the Youtube Data API you are awarded with 10,000 points of requests. For one video upload it costs 1605 points, regardless of file size, which calculates to about 6 uploads daily. Once you have exhausted your daily points, you have to wait till daily reset. Resets happens at 0:00 PST, i.e. 12:30 IST. So make your uploads count.

• Uploading copyright contents will leads to immediate blocking of the video, and will not be added to your MyVideos section of youtube. But still the video can be played directly through the link provided by the bot.

• All the videos are uploaded as private. You may change it after youtube processes the video.

Here's a YouTube tutorial video for deploying the bot on Heroku. Video Link.
