1 | 1 | # lavaplayer-youtube-source |
2 | 2 | A rewritten YouTube source manager for Lavaplayer. |
| 3 | + |
| 4 | +This source aims to provide robustness by leveraging multiple InnerTube clients |
| 5 | +for requests. Where one client fails, another will try to load the request. |
| 6 | +Which clients are used is entirely configurable. |
| 7 | + |
| 8 | +## common |
| 9 | +This module provides the base source manager, which can be used with any |
| 10 | +`com.sedmelluq.discord.lavaplayer` packages still on major version `1`. |
| 11 | + |
| 12 | +Example usage: |
| 13 | +```java |
| 14 | +YoutubeAudioSourceManager youtube = new YoutubeAudioSourceManager(); |
| 15 | +// Optionally, you may instantiate the source with a custom options, such as toggling use of searching, and clients. |
| 16 | +YoutubeAudioSourceManager youtube = new YoutubeAudioSourceManager(/*allowSearch:*/ true, new Client[] { new Music(), new Web(), new Android() }); |
| 17 | +``` |
| 18 | + |
| 19 | +You may also extend the `Client` interface to support additional InnerTube clients. There are a few abstract classes to |
| 20 | +make this easier, notably, `MusicClient` (for `music.youtube.com` InnerTube clients), `NonMusicClient` (for youtube.com |
| 21 | +innertube clients) and `StreamingNonMusicClient` (for clients that can be used to stream videos). |
| 22 | + |
| 23 | +Support for IP rotation has been included, and can be achieved using the following: |
| 24 | +```java |
| 25 | +AbstractRouterPlanner routePlanner = new ... |
| 26 | +YoutubeIpRotatorSetup rotator = new YoutubeIpRotatorSetup(routePlanner); |
| 27 | + |
| 28 | +rotator.forConfiguration(youtube.getHttpInterfaceManager(), false) |
| 29 | + .withMainDelegateFilter(null) // This is important, otherwise you may get NullPointerExceptions. |
| 30 | + .setup(); |
| 31 | +``` |
| 32 | + |
| 33 | +## lldevs |
| 34 | +This modules expands on `common` by providing additional support for |
| 35 | +Lavaplayer `2.x` clients, such as [Lavalink-Devs/Lavaplayer](https://github.com/lavalink-devs/lavaplayer). |
| 36 | +Such features currently include thumbnail support within `AudioTrackInfo`. |
| 37 | +Additional clients are included that provide access to this additional information. |
| 38 | +These clients are suffixed with `Thumbnail`, such as `WebWithThumbnail`, `AndroidWithThumbnail` etc. |
| 39 | + |
| 40 | +Example usage: |
| 41 | +```java |
| 42 | +// same as the 'common' module but there are additional clients that provide video thumbnails in the returned metadata. |
| 43 | +YoutubeAudioSourceManager youtube = new YoutubeAudioSourceManager(/*allowSearch:*/ true, new Client[] { new MusicWithThumbnail(), new WebWithThumbnail(), new AndroidWithThumbnail() }); |
| 44 | +``` |
| 45 | + |
| 46 | +## plugin |
| 47 | +This module serves as the plugin for use with [Lavalink](https://github.com/lavalink-devs/lavalink). |
| 48 | + |
| 49 | +To use this plugin with Lavalink, you must declare the dependency. |
| 50 | +```yaml |
| 51 | +lavalink: |
| 52 | + # ... |
| 53 | + plugins: |
| 54 | + # replace VERSION with the current version as shown by the Releases tab. |
| 55 | + - dependency: "com.github.lavalink-devs.lavaplayer-youtube-source:plugin:VERSION" |
| 56 | + repository: "https://jitpack.io" |
| 57 | +``` |
| 58 | +
|
| 59 | +Configuring the plugin: |
| 60 | +```yaml |
| 61 | +plugins: |
| 62 | + youtube: |
| 63 | + enabled: true |
| 64 | + clients: ["MUSIC", "ANDROID", "WEB"] |
| 65 | +``` |
| 66 | +
|
| 67 | +> [!IMPORTANT] |
| 68 | +> You must make sure to disable the built-in YouTube source like so: |
| 69 | +```yaml |
| 70 | +lavalink: |
| 71 | + server: |
| 72 | + sources: |
| 73 | + youtube: false |
| 74 | +``` |
| 75 | +
|
| 76 | +Existing options, such as `ratelimit` and `youtubePlaylistLoadLimit` will be picked up automatically by the plugin, |
| 77 | +so these don't need changing. |
| 78 | + |
| 79 | +## Available Clients |
| 80 | +Currently, the following clients are available for use: |
| 81 | + |
| 82 | +- `MUSIC` |
| 83 | + - Provides support for searching YouTube music (`ytmsearch:`) |
| 84 | +- `WEB` |
| 85 | +- `ANDROID` |
| 86 | +- `ANDROID_TESTSUITE` |
| 87 | + - NOTE: This client does NOT support loading of mixes or playlists. |
| 88 | + It is advised not to use this client on its own for that reason, if playlists and mix support is required. |
| 89 | +- `IOS` |
| 90 | + - NOTE: This client does not receive Opus formats, so transcoding is required. This can |
| 91 | + increase resource consumption. It is recommended not to use this client unless it has |
| 92 | + the least priority (specified last), or where hardware usage is not a concern. |
| 93 | +- `TVHTML5EMBEDDED` |
| 94 | + - This client is useful for playing age-restricted tracks. Do keep in mind that, even with this |
| 95 | + client enabled, age-restricted tracks are **not** guaranteed to play. |
| 96 | + |
| 97 | +## Migration from Lavaplayer's built-in YouTube source |
| 98 | +This client is intended to be a drop-in replacement, however there are a couple of things to note: |
| 99 | + |
| 100 | +- This source's class structure differs so if you had custom classes that you were initialising |
| 101 | + the source manager with (e.g. an overridden `YoutubeTrackDetailsLoader`), this **is not** compatible |
| 102 | + with this source manager. |
| 103 | + |
| 104 | +- Support for logging into accounts as a means of playing age-restricted tracks has been removed, with the |
| 105 | + `TVHTML5EMBEDDED` client instead being the preferred workaround. There were a large number of |
| 106 | + reasons for this change, but not least the fact that logging in was slowly becoming problematic and deprecated |
| 107 | + on the YouTube backend. The amount of code to support this feature meant that it has been axed. |
