# YouTube Live Chat in Terminal

"YouTube Live Chat Terminal Viewer
|
||||
## Project Description
|
||||
This project aims to provide a customizable way to view YouTube Live Chat directly in your terminal. Designed primarily for Linux content creators, it offers an alternative to YouTube's default chat interface, with future plans for enhanced features like custom styling and a web overlay.
|
||||
|
||||
A Python-based command-line interface (CLI) application designed for Linux content creators to view YouTube Live Chat directly in their terminal. It enhances readability with color-coded
|
||||
usernames, alternating message backgrounds, and textual representation of emotes and emojis. The application also includes robust chat logging with an option to save sessions. Future plans
|
||||
include interactive message sending and a web overlay for streaming software."
|
||||
## Features
|
||||
* **Real-time Live Chat Display:** Fetches and displays messages from YouTube Live Streams.
|
||||
* **OAuth 2.0 Authentication:** Securely connects to your YouTube account to access your live stream data.
|
||||
* **Terminal-based Interface:** View chat directly in your command-line interface.
|
||||
|
||||
### Planned Features
|
||||
* Color-coded usernames for better readability.
|
||||
* Customizable terminal output (e.g., font size, message formatting).
|
||||
* Ability to send messages back to the live chat.
|
||||
* Local web overlay for use with streaming software like OBS.
|
||||
|
||||
## Setup Instructions
|
||||
|
||||
### 1. Clone the Repository (Future Step)
|
||||
Once this project is on GitHub, you would clone it using:
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
git clone [repository-url]
|
||||
cd youtube_chat_terminal
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### 2. Create and Activate a Python Virtual Environment
|
||||
It's highly recommended to use a virtual environment to manage project dependencies.
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
cd /home/joe/Cloud9/Documents/Obisdian/youtube_chat_terminal
|
||||
python3 -m venv venv
|
||||
source venv/bin/activate
|
||||
```
|
||||
*(If you are using a shell like `fish` and encounter issues with `source venv/bin/activate`, try running `bash` first, then `source venv/bin/activate` within the bash session.)*
|
||||
|
||||
### 3. Install Dependencies
|
||||
With your virtual environment activated, install the required Python libraries:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
pip install google-api-python-client google-auth-oauthlib google-auth-httplib2 prompt_toolkit
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### 4. Google Cloud Project Setup
|
||||
To allow this application to access YouTube Live Chat data, you need to set up a project in the Google Cloud Console:
|
||||
|
||||
1. Go to the [Google Cloud Console](https://console.cloud.google.com/).
|
||||
2. Create a new project or select an existing one.
|
||||
3. Navigate to "APIs & Services" > "Library".
|
||||
4. Search for and **enable the "YouTube Data API v3"**.
|
||||
5. Go to "APIs & Services" > "Credentials".
|
||||
6. Click "+ CREATE CREDENTIALS" and choose **"OAuth client ID"**.
|
||||
7. For "Application type", select **"Desktop app"**.
|
||||
8. Give it a name (e.g., "YouTube Chat Terminal App") and click "CREATE".
|
||||
9. Download the JSON file containing your Client ID and Client Secret. Rename this file to `client_secret.json`.
|
||||
|
||||
### 5. Place `client_secret.json`
|
||||
Move the downloaded `client_secret.json` file into the root directory of this project (i.e., `/home/joe/Cloud9/Documents/Obisdian/youtube_chat_terminal/`).
|
||||
|
||||
### 6. Initial Authentication
|
||||
Run the `main.py` script for the first time to complete the OAuth 2.0 authentication flow:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
python main.py
|
||||
```
|
||||
This will open a browser window, prompting you to log in with your Google account and grant permissions to the application. Upon successful authentication, a `token.json` file will be created in the project directory. This file stores your credentials for future use, so you won't need to re-authenticate every time.
|
||||
|
||||
## Usage
|
||||
To view the live chat of a YouTube stream, run the script and provide the YouTube Live Stream Video ID when prompted:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
python main.py
|
||||
```
|
||||
The script will then continuously fetch and display live chat messages in your terminal.
|
||||
|
||||
### Finding the YouTube Live Stream Video ID
|
||||
* Go to the live stream on YouTube.
|
||||
* The Video ID is the alphanumeric string in the URL after `v=` (e.g., in `https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YOUR_VIDEO_ID`, `YOUR_VIDEO_ID` is the ID you need).
|
||||
|
||||
## Future Development
|
||||
Contributions and suggestions are welcome! Planned enhancements include:
|
||||
* Advanced terminal formatting and styling.
|
||||
* Integration for sending chat messages.
|
||||
* Development of a local web overlay.
