Soenneker.YouTube.Client

Provides a lazily created YoutubeExplode.YoutubeClient for reading public YouTube metadata and media streams.

Install

dotnet add package Soenneker.YouTube.Client

Registration

using Soenneker.YouTube.Client.Registrars;
services.AddYouTubeClientUtilAsSingleton();

Scoped registration is also available:

services.AddYouTubeClientUtilAsScoped();

Each provider owns its cached HTTP client. Scoped providers use independent cache entries, so disposing one scope does not remove another scope's client.

Usage

public sealed class VideoReader
{
    private readonly IYouTubeClientUtil _youtube;

    public VideoReader(IYouTubeClientUtil youtube)
    {
        _youtube = youtube;
    }

    public async Task PrintTitle(string videoUrl, CancellationToken cancellationToken)
    {
        YoutubeClient client = await _youtube.Get(cancellationToken);
        var video = await client.Videos.GetAsync(videoUrl, cancellationToken);

        Console.WriteLine($"{video.Title} — {video.Author.ChannelTitle}");
    }
}

The package does not use the official YouTube Data API and does not require an API key. Behavior follows YouTubeExplode and can be affected by changes to YouTube's public site.
