I am able to get the list of live stream: https://developers.google.com/youtube/v3/live/docs/liveStreams/list#examples But how to get the live stream status and live stream link or id for particular channel using youtube v3 api in android?
I have faced the same problem and managed to figure out a solution for the same. YouTube actually provides an API for this purpose. You can use the search API to get the currently active Live Video ID, if you have the channel ID.
Use the following API:
https://www.googleapis.com/youtube/v3/search?part=snippet&channelId={YOUR_CHANNEL_ID}&eventType=live&type=video&key={YOUR_API_KEY}
The key factor here is you have to set the eventType to live and type to video.
For getting the channel ID, you can use the following request, if you have the channel's username.
https://www.googleapis.com/youtube/v3/channels?part=contentDetails&forUsername={CHANNEL_USER_NAME}&key={YOUR_API_KEY}
This will return live stream ID
https://www.googleapis.com/youtube/v3/search?part=snippet&channelId={CHANNEL_ID}&eventType=live&type=video&key={YOUR_API_KEY}
You can also pass Query to YouTube so YouTube give you all live stream events
https://www.googleapis.com/youtube/v3/search?part=snippet&q={YOUR_SEARCH_QuERY}&eventType=live&type=video&key={YOUR_YOUTUBE_API}
This how i get live stream videos in my app
private void initVolley(String[] urls) {
for (String url : urls) {
if (url.startsWith("https://www.googleapis.com/youtube/v3/")) {
jsonObjectRequest = new JsonObjectRequest(Request.Method.GET, url, null, new Response.Listener<JSONObject>() {
@Override
public void onResponse(JSONObject response) {
try {
JSONArray jsonArray = response.getJSONArray("items");
if (jsonArray.length() > 0) {
for (int getItem = 0; getItem < jsonArray.length(); getItem++) {
JSONObject jsonObject = jsonArray.getJSONObject(getItem).getJSONObject("id");
String videoID = jsonObject.getString("videoId");
Log.d(TAG, "void id " + videoID);
mUrlList.add(new video(jsonArray.getJSONObject(getItem).getJSONObject("snippet").getString("title"), jsonArray.getJSONObject(getItem).getJSONObject("snippet").getJSONObject("thumbnails").getJSONObject("medium").getString("url"), " ", "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=" + videoID, true));
if (mAdapter != null)
mAdapter.notifyDataSetChanged();
Log.d(TAG, videoID + jsonArray.length() + jsonArray.getJSONObject(getItem).getJSONObject("snippet").getJSONObject("thumbnails").getJSONObject("default").getString("url"));
}
}
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
}, new Response.ErrorListener() {
@Override
public void onErrorResponse(VolleyError error) {
}
});
requestQueue.add(jsonObjectRequest);
}
}
}
And if you have YouTube links maybe you store your in database then this will return you some usefull info with out API key
https://www.youtube.com/oembed?url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lUOhCtXPN40&format=json
and below code for this
JsonObjectRequest obreq = new JsonObjectRequest(Request.Method.GET, JsonURL, null,
new Response.Listener<JSONObject>() {
@Override
public void onResponse(JSONObject response) {
try {
// mVideo = new video(response.getString("title"), response.getString("thumbnail_url"), response.getString("author_name"));
// mVideoDataSet.add(mVideo);
mVideo = new video(url);
mVideo.setVideoTitle(response.getString("title"));
mVideo.setVideoThimailUrl(response.getString("thumbnail_url"));
mVideo.setVideoChannalName(response.getString("author_name"));
mVideo.setLiveNow(false);
mVideoDataSet.add( mVideo);
Log.d(TAG, "inside the volly" + mVideo.getVideoTitle());
// Log.d(TAG, mVideoDataSet.get(i).getVideoStreemUrl());
if (mAdapter != null) {
mAdapter.notifyDataSetChanged();
// if(mSwipeRefreshLayout.isRefreshing())
// mSwipeRefreshLayout.setRefreshing(false);
} else {
Log.d(TAG, "setingAdupter");
// if(mSwipeRefreshLayout.isRefreshing())
// mSwipeRefreshLayout.setRefreshing(false);
mAdapter = new CustomAdapter(mVideoDataSet);
mRecyclerView.setAdapter(mAdapter);
}
i++;
if (i != mUrlList.size())
initVolly();
} catch (JSONException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
},
new Response.ErrorListener() {
@Override
public void onErrorResponse(VolleyError error) {
// if(error)
i++;
initVolly();
Log.e("Volley", "Error");
}
}
);
// Adds the JSON object request "obreq" to the request queue
requestQueue.add(obreq);
