How to get video duration using YouTube API? [duplicate]

Answer 1

All the prev answers provide the duration in a text format:

This solution will give you the hours / minutes / seconds for you to transform to whatever format you would like:

function getDurationInSeconds($talkId){
   $vidkey = $talkId;
   $apikey = "xxxxx";
   $dur = file_get_contents("https://www.googleapis.com/youtube/v3/videos?part=contentDetails&id=$vidkey&key=$apikey");
   $VidDuration =json_decode($dur, true);
   foreach ($VidDuration['items'] as $vidTime)
   {
       $VidDuration= $vidTime['contentDetails']['duration'];
   }
   preg_match_all('/(\d+)/', $VidDuration, $parts);
   $hours = intval(floor($parts[0][0]/60) * 60 * 60);
   $minutes = intval($parts[0][0]%60 * 60);
   $seconds = intval($parts[0][1]);
   $totalSec = $hours + $minutes + $seconds; // This is the example in seconds
   return $totalSec;
}
