Youtube Draws!
To run this site, all you need to do is specify a few things. Create a file in /server called secrets.js with the following format:
const dbUri = "a mongodb connection uri, probably starting with mongodb+srv://";
const ytClientSecret = Your youtube api client_secret (probably starts with {"web":{"client_id": ... }})
const titleVideoId = "yourVideoId";// e.g. dQw4w9WgXcQ
const thumbnailVideoId = "yourOtherVideoId";
export default {dbUri, ytClientSecret, titleVideoId, thumbnailVideoId};
You can get the mongodb secret just from setting up a free database (mongodb.com) and you can get your youtube token from the google developer dashboard, or by following this tutorial: https://developers.google.com/youtube/v3/quickstart/nodejs.
Then, install node.js and npm and run npm install in a terminal to install the project-specific dependencies. After you've verified your youtube channel, you should see "Server Listening to Port 3000". You can then go onto localhost:3000 in a web browser and you should see the app working. If you have any questions, contact me on discord @ serum17.
If you only want to update a video's title or a video's thumbnail (not both, like the project is set up to do), comment out the setInterval at the bottom in server/index.js and the route (/ or /title) near the top of the file.
