Allow for searching of YouTube videos (+ in-game audio download) #6

Use the YouTube API to search and return a list of downloadable videos. This will likely come in handy when I attempt to implement in-game audio download and search.

There may be a problem with API keys. Don't know if I should just put mine in or whatever

10se1ucgo commented 8 years ago

Problem solved. Created a small app engine server to handle API requests (caches results and enforces per-user quotas too).

Now to just implement this.

We now have audio search, now all I need to do is figure out how to make it work in game.

The best I can think of is to mimic how PikaDJ does it, dump the console to console.log (With the command con_log "console.log") and read it for input

An example of how the user could download a song:

Open console
Type echo "jam search: [SEARCH QUERY HERE]"
pyjam reads console.log for that command
pyjam searches for that song, and writes the results to a cfg called stdin.cfg
User should then type exec stdin.cfg to get the results
Then, user types: echo "jam download: [VIDEO ID/URL HERE]"
pyjam begins to download and convert. Periodically, updates are sent to stdin.cfg, and the user can type exec stdin.cfg to get those updates if he wants.
Once the conversion and download is complete, pyjam regenerates config files, and adds exec jam to the end of stdin.cfg so that pyjam is reloaded.

Nah, screw that

Open console
Type bind = "search: SEARCH QUERY HERE"
Run the command jam_cmd
Wait a bit, and run the command jam_stdin or stdin, which echos the search output
Type bind = "download: VIDEO ID HERE"
Run the command jam_cmd
Run the commands jam_stdin or stdin to get updates
When the song is successfully downloaded and converted, config files are regenerated, and exec jam is written to the end of stdin.cfg (So that everything is reloaded on completion.).

Implemented

10se1ucgo commented 8 years ago

Downloading implemented

All that's left is to now add conversion.

All done! GIFV Link
