[Task] Create route to get captions #3

Closed apoorvsxna closed 2 months ago

This route should take a YouTube video link as the request and return the captions as a string.
You'll probably have to use this python library.
Endpoint: /captions

Sample code to get captions using video ID-

from youtube_transcript_api import YouTubeTranscriptApi

print(YouTubeTranscriptApi.get_transcript('jpGXBUiGu8A'))

# 'jpGXBUiGu8A' is the video ID here

Resolved.
