* Switch to new comments api now that old one is being disabledJames Taylor2021-08-091-20/+19
| | | | | | | | | | | watch_comment api periodically gives the error "Top level comments mweb servlet is turned down." The continuation items for the new api are in a different arrangement in the json, so changes were necessary to the extract_items function. Signed-off-by: Jesús <heckyel@hyperbola.info>

* Update max_replies when there's a continuation for the repliesJames Taylor2021-02-261-6/+15
| | | | | | | | | | | Because of the new ctoken methodology for getting comment replies, the more comments button automatically works inside the comment reply thread when there are more replies than the limit (250). This commit also updates the max_replies for that ctoken so the next 250 replies will be retrieved for the more comments ctoken. Signed-off-by: Jesús <heckyel@hyperbola.info>
* Fix comment repliesJames Taylor2021-02-261-39/+30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Comment reply protobuf now requires the channel id of the uploader of the video. Otherwise the endpoint returns 500. Instead of making the protobuf ourselves and passing this data around through query parameters, just use the ctoken provided to us but modify the max_replies field from 10 to 250.

* Remove commenting system. Because:James Taylor2020-10-211-22/+3
| | | | | | | | - Actually using it will result in comments being shadowbanned, even those posted from Youtube's interfacs, because your account gets downranked since no analytics are present so it looks like a bot posting the comment. - It's been broken for awhile
* yt_data_extract: normalize thumbnail and author urlsJames Taylor2020-10-191-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | for instance, urls that start with // become https:// adjustment required in comments.py because the url was left as a relative url in yt_data_extract by mistake and was using URL_ORIGIN prefix as fix. see #31

* Fix failure to parse comments when there's one from deleted channelJames Taylor2020-03-081-12/+23
| | | | | | Specifically, fix failures when any of the fields from the parsed comment are None, such as author, author_url, etc. (failure due to string concatenation when building urls).
* Extraction: Rewrite comment extraction, remove author_id and rename ↵James Taylor2019-12-191-5/+4
| | | | | | | | | author_channel_id to that, fix bug in extract_items author_id (an internal sql-like integer previously required for deleting and editing comments) has been removed by Youtube and is no longer required. Remove it for simplicity. Rename author_channel_id to author_id for consistency with other extraction attributes. extract_items returned None for items instead of [] for empty continuation responses. Fixes that.
