Get Random Video Function

[iced-queen]

Hey there, I love this library (as you can probably tell since this isn't my first suggestion xD), and I think it'd be a cool-to-have feature if there was a randomVideo function that would obviously return a random video. 😄 Not just one of the first few "Most Viewed" ones as an example, but completely random. This could also work with Pstars and Models (randomPornstar & randomModel). These functions could also take tags as well (optional) that'd return a random video/pstar/model with these tags, but if no tags are provided, just a completely random video/pstar/model.

I don't even know if this is possible and/or if you wanna make it, but worth a try. 😊

Thanks for the suggestion, and I totally understand the use case of this. However, the role of this library is to serve as an unofficial API layer for PornHub, which means my goal is to provide functionalities that can be done on the official website. Therefore, in this case, since there isn't a built-in "random" feature on PornHub, you can achieve a similar outcome by getting a list of videos (with random parameters from things like pre-defined list of keywords) and randomly selecting one from the list.

Few things I have checked:

• "Hot porn videos Internationally" on the main page are just a few sets of videos, not really randomized.
• "Recently Featured Porn Videos" on the video page is not randomized.
• "Top Trending Pornstars" on the pornstars page is randomized, it contains both pornstars and models, but you cannot configure it.

With a quick google search, I found a URL looking like this: https://www.pornhub.com/random (just FYI; if you just click on the link from here, it just redirects you to the main page of PH. If you try to copy the URL and paste it in the search bar where URLs are, it redirects you to a random video.) When I clicked on it, it redirected me onto a completely random video (I think), so I do actually think it is possible :))

Although, I do not know if this allow configs.

Shoutout to "Katie" from this random reddit post 😂

Good. Then we can have a randomVideo() 😄

[iced-queen]

Great! I'm trying to figure out if it provides optional tags & if there's an endpoint like this for Pstars/Models as well, so they can all be in the same release if they exist. 😄

[iced-queen]

Also I have a quick question. Does the library support the endpoints "/recommended" and "/video?o=ht" (hottest world wide)?

[pionxzh]

/recommended is not being supported as it's a personalized page, and I didn't find any useful use case for this page. /video?o=? is not being supported, but I think this is a valid use case, feel free to open another feature request!

Do you have an (approx) ETA on the next release which contains the current "issues"/suggestions?
