# Youtube Quality Extractor
## _For IONIC 4 (As capacitor plugin)_

[![N|Solid](https://cldup.com/dTxpPi9lDf.thumb.png)](https://nodesource.com/products/nsolid)

Ionic 4 Angular 8 Capacitor plugin for generating video quality for android.

By using capacitor, I have created a plugin that will take a youtube link and via capacitor bridge and andorid plugins it will fetch youtube qualities which can be used in your player to play live/recorded videos.

- ✨Magic ✨

## Features

- Fetch a youtube link and check if it's live or not
- Send it to the plugin
- Plugin will return all the urls
- Use the qualities win your player.
- Note:By default 360p & 720p will be playable.
- You will need your own logic to run 480p 1080p qualities because the audio and video files are seperated.
- No methods for web/iOS. For web i'll suggest you look for ytdl-core (node js)


## Tech

I used Angular 8.1.1, Ionic 4, Capacitor 2.4.7 for checking the plugin:

## Limitations
Those videos aren't working:

- Age restricted videos
- Everything private (private videos, bought movies, ...)
- Unavailable in your country
- RTMPE urls (very rare)

## Installation


Install the plugin.

```sh
npm i youtube-quality-generator-deva
npx cap sync android
```

Create a service and import the plugin. I have also included a regex to take embed code or short link and convert it to full url by extracting the id. It should look like this =>

```sh
import {Injectable} from '@angular/core';
import {Plugins} from '@capacitor/core';
import 'youtube-quality-generator';

const {DevaYoutubeGenerator} = Plugins;

@Injectable()
export class YoutubeExtractService {
    convertedData: any;
    constructor() {
    }

    async getDataFromVideo(video: { link: string, isLive: boolean }) {
        console.log(video);

        const regExp = /^.*((youtu.be\/)|(v\/)|(\/u\/\w\/)|(embed\/)|(watch\?))\??v?=?([^#\&\?]*).*/;
        const match = video.link.match(regExp);
        if (match && match[7].length === 11) {
            console.log(match[7]);
            video.link = `http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=${match[7]}`;
        } else {
            alert('Could not extract video ID.');
        }

        try {
            const res = await DevaYoutubeGenerator.getDataFromLink(video);
            console.log('line 27:', res);
            console.log('line 28', JSON.stringify(res));
            console.log('line 29', res['data']);
            window.alert(res['data']);
            this.convertedData = res['data'];
        } catch (e) {
            console.log(e);
        } finally {
            /** your logic for data modelling and sending it to video player***/
        }
    }
}

```
