Youtube PHP APi Check VIdeo Is Duplicate Or Not

Question

Hi I am using Google PHP API to upload video in PHP. I have followed this tutorial to implement this and it is working fine. But there is a problem if video is already exist

Answer 1

The only solution I could come up with to check the video status is to use a field in the table to mark the video as processed or not. Then set a cron to run every hour (or however often you want) to check the video status.

The field in my videos table is processed. NULL for not processed, 0 if it's processed. My api field stores the YouTube's video ID in json format.

Here's my cron script:

# Starts the YouTubeService.
$youtube_obj=new Google_Service_YouTube($client);

# Get new uploaded videos from the database.
$unprocessed_videos=$db->get_results('SELECT `id`, `file_name`, `contributor`, `api` FROM `'.DBPREFIX.'videos` WHERE `processed` IS NULL');

# If there are new videos...
if($unprocessed_videos>0)
{
    # Loop through the new videos
    foreach($unprocessed_videos as $new_video)
    {
        # Has the video been processed? Default is TRUE. will be changed to FALSE if the video still has "uploaded" status.
        $video_processed=TRUE;

        # Decode the `api` field.
        $api_decoded=json_decode($new_video->api);
        # Get the YouTube Video ID.
        $video_yt_id=$api_decoded->youtube_id;

        if(isset($new_video->file_name))
        {
            # Set the path to the video on the server.
            $video_path='videos'.DS.$new_video->file_name;
        }

        $to='uploaders email';
        $reply_to='whomever';
        $subject="Video status from ".DOMAIN_NAME;
        $body='';

        # Check the video status.
        $check_status=$youtube_obj->videos->listVideos('status', array('id' => $video_yt_id));

        # Did YouTube return results?
        if(!empty($check_status['items']))
        {
            # Loop through the videos from YouTube.
            foreach($check_status['items'] as $status)
            {
                if($status['status']['uploadStatus']=="uploaded")
                {
                    # The video has not been processed yet so do not send an email.
                    $video_processed=FALSE;
                }
                # Check to see if the YouTube upload was a success.
                elseif($status['status']['uploadStatus']=="processed")
                {
                    # Tell the user the video was uploaded.
                    $body.='Your video has been uploaded to YouTube and can be viewed at http://'.FULL_DOMAIN.'media/videos/?video='.$new_video->id;
                }
                # Check if the uploaded video status is rejected.
                elseif($status['status']['uploadStatus']=="rejected")
                {
                    if(isset($new_video->file_name))
                    {
                        # Get the Upload class.
                        require_once 'Form'.DS.'Upload.php');
                        # Instantiate an Upload object.
                        $upload_obj=new Upload($video_path);
                        # Delete video file from server.
                        $upload_obj->deleteFile($video_path);

                        # Delete rejected video from YouTube
                        $delete_response=$youtube_obj->videos->delete($video_yt_id);
                    }

                    # Need to delete the entry from the database as well.
                    $db->query('DELETE FROM `'.DBPREFIX.'videos` WHERE `id` = '.$db->quote($new_video->id).' LIMIT 1');

                    # Check if the rejection status was a duplicate.
                    if($status['status']['rejectionReason']=="duplicate")
                    {
                        # Tell the user the video was a duplicate.
                        $body.='Your video was rejected because it was a duplicate video';
                    }
                }
            }
        }
        else
        {
            $body.='Your video was not found on YouTube';
            $video_processed=TRUE;
        }
        # Update database if the video has been "processed".
        if($video_processed===TRUE)
        {
            # Get the Email class.
            require_once 'Email'.DS.'Email.php');
            # Instantiate a new Email object.
            $mail_obj=new Email();
            $mail_obj->sendEmail($subject, $to, $body, $reply_to);
            # Set video to processed.
            $db->query('UPDATE `'.DBPREFIX.'videos` SET `processed` = 0 WHERE `id` = '.$db->quote($new_video->id).' LIMIT 1');
        }
    }
