I have a problem that I need to solve.
I create Youtube videos and every time I’m on the upload page I have to :
- remove the “.mp4” extension from every title
- change my video category
- put the same description in all of the videos
- put the same keywords in all of the videos
So, I firstly wanted to create this bot in C#, but I would have to learn C# (I already know C++, but again, I would have to learn all the libraries in C#).
I was wondering if this bot could be created in Javascript (because I already know Javascript) or in any other language that I know (PHP, C++)?
Maybe I can create a Mozilla Firefox extension that does it for me in Javascript? As I said, could someone just tell me in what programming (or scripting) language am I supposed to write this bot?
So, as I said, I would manually log in, bot would just need to access my already opened page in Mozilla Firefox and change that four things.
Thanks in advance!
I would definitely go with javascript on this one. Take a look at GreaseMonkey – Scripting add-on for FireFox, that allows you to add custom javascript code to pages.
I would create a script that does all your needed changes when you call this script.
Or if all these things are on the same page you can use simple bookmarklet that calls javascript and changes these things for you.
I’m not too familiar with video uploading on youtube, so can’t help you there, but you mentioned that you are familiar with javascript, so finding input fields with values and changing them shouldn’t be too much of a hassle.
