youtube-api - 检索“Vanity”频道的 Youtube 频道信息

Question

给定一个频道的“虚名 url”（例如 youtube.com/wheelockcollege，它指向 youtube.com/wheelockmarketing1），有没有办法检索频道详细信息？

我正在使用 API 的新版本 3，以及最新的 Python 包。

Answer 1

可能首先使用搜索：

GET https://www.googleapis.com/youtube/v3/search?part=snippet&q=wheelockcollege&type=channel&key={YOUR_API_KEY}

然后使用频道 ID，您可以获得频道详细信息：

GET https://www.googleapis.com/youtube/v3/channels?part=snippet%2CcontentDetails%2Cstatistics&id=UC6ltI41W4P14NShIBHU8z1Q&key={YOUR_API_KEY}

在这种情况下，结果是：

{
 "kind": "youtube#channelListResponse",
 "etag": "\"PsChdkLfsD-u3yuH7KChIH1CRFg/fl8vHBnZ66nKyI7QvfTRQchTAAA\"",
 "pageInfo": {
  "totalResults": 1,
  "resultsPerPage": 1
 },
 "items": [
  {
   "id": "UC6ltI41W4P14NShIBHU8z1Q",
   "kind": "youtube#channel",
   "etag": "\"PsChdkLfsD-u3yuH7KChIH1CRFg/zyApGa6dWMliWq5iBE5SL4ewNaQ\"",
   "snippet": {
    "channelId": "UC6ltI41W4P14NShIBHU8z1Q",
    "title": "wheelockmarketing1",
    "description": "Since 1888, Wheelock College has been providing a transformational education to students passionate about making the world a better place—especially for children and families.\n\nWhile most of our students elect to work in the helping professions of education, social work, child life, and juvenile justice and youth advocacy, many pursue—and make exceptional contributions to—a wide variety of professions.\n\nAs a highly respected advocate for social policy, Wheelock also helps to shape and strengthen the social systems that positively impact children and families around the globe.",

     }
    }
   },
   "contentDetails": {
    "relatedPlaylists": {
     "likes": "LL6ltI41W4P14NShIBHU8z1Q",
     "favorites": "FL6ltI41W4P14NShIBHU8z1Q",
     "uploads": "UU6ltI41W4P14NShIBHU8z1Q"
    }
   },
   "statistics": {
    "viewCount": "10354",
    "commentCount": "1",
    "subscriberCount": "43",
    "videoCount": "91"
   }
  }
 ]
}

如果初始搜索返回多个结果，我们就会遇到问题，但我相信这是一个很好的策略 :)
