Clip-manager

This project is a set of Python scripts that automatically create and upload videos from Twitch to YouTube.

Apps

The project consists of the following apps:

• /src/create_videos.py: This app uses the Twitch API to create ffmpeg commands, YouTube description, title and tags based on the Twitch communities analysis done in this website https://twitchatlas.com/. Everything is saved in Firebase. It is supposed to run on Cloud Run job (once a day), it's used in Dockerfile-daily and Dockerfile-weekly.

• /src/make_videos.py: This app uses the videos made with /src/create_videos.py and runs the ffmpeg commands. The output is saved to a GCP bucket. It is supposed to run on a VM Instance with as cron job. More information is in /setup_help.txt.

• /src/upload_server.py: This app is a Flask server that waits for uploads. It is supposed to get the video information and upload it from the bucket to YouTube.It runs on Cloud Run (Dockerfile-upload-server).

• /src/send_upload.py: This app checks for new videos in Firebase and for each video sends a request to upload the video to the assigned channel in /channels.json. If the channel tokens aren't specified, it will open a Chrome tab so you log in. (You are supposed to run this manually every day, because sometimes you need to relog into the YouTube accounts).

• settings.py: All settings for the app.

• streamlit_website.py: (Very old not updated) This app shows the Firebase videos in a website. It uses Cloud Run as well (Dockerfile-website).

Secrets

You need the Firebase credentials and the Twitch API credentials in the secrets/ directory. The YouTube credentials go in channels.json, (only 6 brand-channels per channel since the api only allows 6 videos a day)
