youtube_metadata

This script will take as imput a text file, remote github file, remote pastebin file. It will then find all the youtube links in the file

This script then looks up title, length, username etc. of any given youtube URL.

It requires that the user create their own Google YouTube API key.

This is the info we get back from youtube from a part=snippet URL like the following: https://www.googleapis.com/youtube/v3/videos?part=snippet&id=ve2pmm5JqmI&key={your_api_key} you can see that there is no runtime in this one.

based on my reading of the docs, the API key has a limit of 1,000,000 units per day. each time this script is run on one video, it takes 6 units. so, you should be able to process roughly 160,000 video URLs per day with this.
