Overview
Welcome to the documentation for the BahYouTubeOAuth library. This library provides easy-to-use functionality for authenticating with the YouTube API using OAuth. With this library, you can retrieve access tokens, authorize requests, and interact with various YouTube API endpoints.
Installation
To get started with BahYouTubeOAuth, follow these steps:
- Download the library from the GitHub repository.
- Extract the downloaded zip file.
- Copy the extracted
bahyoutubeoauth
folder to your project directory. - Include the necessary files in your project:
- Require
bahyoutubeoauth.php
in your PHP script. - Add the
bahyoutubeoauth.min.js
file to your HTML file.
Usage
1. Authorization
To authenticate with the YouTube API, you need to authorize your application using OAuth. Follow these steps:
- Create a new instance of the
BahYouTubeOAuth
class. - Call the
authorize()
method, providing your Google API client ID and client secret as arguments. - A browser window will open, prompting you to log in and authorize your application.
- After authorization, you will receive an access token, which you can use for subsequent API requests.
2. Making API Requests
Once you have obtained an access token, you can make API requests using the request()
method. This method accepts the following parameters:
$method
: The HTTP method for the request (e.g., GET, POST, PUT).$endpoint
: The YouTube API endpoint you want to interact with.$params
: (Optional) Any additional parameters required by the endpoint.
Example usage:
// Create a new instance of BahYouTubeOAuth
$youtube = new BahYouTubeOAuth();
// Make a GET request to retrieve videos
$response = $youtube->request('GET', 'videos', ['part' => 'snippet', 'maxResults' => 10]);
// Check the response
if ($response['code'] === 200) {
// Request was successful
echo $response['body'];
} else {
// Request failed
echo 'Error: ' . $response['code'];
}
