# YouTube Scraper
A platform-native YouTube scraper that is a **drop-in clone of the Apify
"YouTube Scraper" and "YouTube Comments Scraper" actors** — same input surface,
same output item shape. It talks to YouTube's internal **InnerTube** API plus
the public watch/channel HTML, egresses through a residential proxy, and streams
Apify-shaped dicts.
No API keys, no Apify account, no headless browser on the happy path.
---
## Quick start
```python
from app.scrapers.youtube import (
YouTubeScrapeInput, scrape_youtube,
YouTubeCommentsInput, scrape_comments,
)
# Videos — by search query and/or direct URLs (video/channel/playlist/hashtag/search)
videos = await scrape_youtube(
YouTubeScrapeInput(searchQueries=["surfsense"], maxResults=50)
)
videos = await scrape_youtube(
YouTubeScrapeInput(startUrls=[{"url": "https://www.youtube.com/@SomeChannel"}],
maxResults=20, downloadSubtitles=True)
)
# Comments — one output item per top-level comment AND per reply
comments = await scrape_comments(
YouTubeCommentsInput(
startUrls=[{"url": "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VIDEO_ID"}],
maxComments=200, sortCommentsBy="TOP_COMMENTS",
)
)
```
Both have a streaming twin — `iter_youtube()` / `iter_comments()` — that yields
items as they arrive (unbounded, continuation-paged). `scrape_*` is just a
collector with an optional `limit` guard.
The HTTP surface lives in `app/routes/youtube_routes.py`.
---
## Module map
| File | Responsibility |
|------|----------------|
| `__init__.py` | Public exports (entry points + schemas). |
| `schemas.py` | Pydantic input/output models mirroring the Apify camelCase spec. `extra="allow"` on outputs keeps the contract open. |
| `scraper.py` | Video orchestrator. Resolves URLs → per-flow async generators (`_video_flow`, `_search_flow`, `_channel_flow`, `_playlist_flow`), runs them through the `fan_out` worker pool. |
| `comments.py` | Comments orchestrator. Watch page → comments-section continuation → `/next` paging, with concurrent per-thread reply fetching. |
| `innertube.py` | **The network seam.** Proxy-only fetch (`fetch_html`, `post_innertube`), reusable sticky-IP sessions, reactive IP rotation, `StealthyFetcher` fallback, and the InnerTube payload builder. |
| `parsers.py` | Pure, I/O-free JSON/HTML traversal + normalization (`find_all`/`find_first`/`dig`, `parse_video_page`, `parse_search_response`, comment/continuation token extractors, `parse_count`, …). |
| `url_resolver.py` | Classify a URL into `video` / `channel` / `playlist` / `hashtag` / `search` and extract its id. |
| `search_filters.py` | Encode Apify search filters into YouTube's `sp=` base64 protobuf (sort/date/type/length/feature flags), composable. |
| `subtitles.py` | Subtitle download via `youtube-transcript-api`, shaped to Apify `subtitles[]`. |
Everything in `parsers.py` is deterministic and unit-tested offline; everything
that touches the network is funneled through `innertube.py`.
---
## How it fetches (the important part)
All network I/O goes through **`fetch_html`** (GET watch/channel pages) and
**`post_innertube`** (POST InnerTube `browse`/`search`/`next`). Design rules:
1. **Proxy-only egress.** Every request goes through the residential proxy
(`app/utils/proxy.get_proxy_url`). We never connect directly — a direct hit
would expose and risk-block the server IP.
2. **Session reuse = sticky IP.** Within one flow (a continuation chain, or the
jobs a worker pulls), a single keep-alive `FetcherSession` is reused. This
roughly **halves warm latency** (~2.1s → ~1.0s) because only the first
request pays the TCP+TLS handshake, and it pins one sticky exit IP instead of
drawing a new (often slow) residential node per request.
3. **Reactive IP rotation.** A sticky IP is kept until it's actually blocked. On
`403`/`429` or a connection error, the session rotates to a fresh IP and
retries, up to `_MAX_ROTATIONS` (3). A probe of 120 sequential requests on
one IP saw zero blocks, so rotation is reactive, not proactive.
4. **Browser fallback.** If all proxy attempts fail on an HTML page, `fetch_html`
falls back to `StealthyFetcher` (headless, `solve_cloudflare=True`) in a
worker thread. Optional — needs patchright browsers installed. Age-gated
content requires login and is **not** bypassable.
The active session is bound to the current async task via a `ContextVar`
(`_current_session`), so parsers and orchestrators never thread a session
argument through every call — each concurrent flow transparently uses its own
session/IP.
### InnerTube payloads
`build_innertube_payload(...)` builds the `WEB` client `context` payload
(I/O-free, unit-testable). Some endpoints reject a keyless POST; `scraper._post`
retries once with the public web key (`INNERTUBE_PUBLIC_API_KEY`) when the
keyless call returns nothing. `hl=<lang>` on a `/next` call returns the
creator-localized title/description (the translation flow).
---
## Concurrency model
Independent jobs — each `startUrl`, each `searchQuery`, each comment video — run
concurrently through **`fan_out`**, a warm **worker pool** (`_FANOUT_CONCURRENCY
= 16`):
- Each worker opens **one** proxy session and reuses it across the sequential
jobs it pulls, so only the first job per worker pays the handshake.
- **A bad job yields nothing rather than aborting the batch** (per-job
try/except). One dead URL / comments-disabled video never kills the run.
- Results stream out as each job finishes; **within** a flow, continuation
paging stays sequential.
- If the consumer stops early (collector hits its `limit`), workers are
cancelled and **awaited** so every session's `finally` closes — no leaked
keep-alive connections.
Comment reply threads for a page are fetched **concurrently** on the same
multiplexed session (`asyncio.gather`), capped at the remaining budget.
---
## Data flow
- **Video by URL** → fetch watch HTML → `parse_video_page` (reads
`ytInitialData` + `ytInitialPlayerResponse`) → optional subtitles + translation.
- **Search** → InnerTube `/search` (+ `sp=` filter protobuf) → paginate via
continuation tokens up to `maxResults`.
- **Channel** → fetch the videos-tab seed once (reused for channel-wide metadata
+ the About panel via `/browse`), then page `videos` / `shorts` / `streams`
tabs, each capped independently (`maxResults` / `maxResultsShorts` /
`maxResultStreams`). `sortVideosBy` uses the sort chips; `oldestPostDate` cuts
off newest-first.
- **Playlist**`/browse` `VL<id>` → resolve each video via the video flow.
- **Comments** → watch HTML seeds the comments-section token → `/next` returns
comment entities + per-thread reply tokens + the page token. `maxComments`
counts **every** emitted item (comments + replies).
### `commentsCount`
For the **comments** scraper, the authoritative total is read from the
comments-section header (`commentsHeaderRenderer.countText`), not the watch-page
HTML where it's lazy-loaded/absent. **Known gap:** the **video** scraper's
`VideoItem.commentsCount` still comes from search/watch HTML and is often `null`
— it would need an extra `/next` call to backfill (intentionally not done to
keep the video path cheap).
---
## API spec
Mirrors the Apify "YouTube Scraper" and "YouTube Comments Scraper" actors
(camelCase, `extra="allow"`). Inputs use Pydantic defaults; **every field is
additive** — unknown inputs are accepted, unsourced outputs come back as
`None`/`[]` — so parity grows without breaking consumers. `schemas.py` is the
source of truth.
### Video scraper — input (`YouTubeScrapeInput`)
| Field | Type / values | Default | Notes |
|-------|---------------|---------|-------|
| `searchQueries` | `string[]` | `[]` | Discovery by query. Ignored when `startUrls` is set. |
| `startUrls` | `[{ "url": string }]` | `[]` | Direct URLs: video, channel, playlist, hashtag, search. Overrides `searchQueries`. |
| `maxResults` | `int ≥ 0` | `0` | Cap of regular videos **per query and per channel**. `0` = fetch none. |
| `maxResultsShorts` | `int ≥ 0` | `0` | Cap of Shorts per channel. |
| `maxResultStreams` | `int ≥ 0` | `0` | Cap of live/streams per channel. |

| `subtitlesFormat` | `srt` \| `vtt` \| `xml` \| `plaintext` | `"srt"` | |
| `preferAutoGeneratedSubtitles` | `bool` | `false` | |
| `saveSubsToKVS` | `bool` | `false` | Accepted for parity; no-op (Apify key-value-store concept). |
| `sortingOrder` | `relevance` \| `rating` \| `date` \| `views` | `null` | Search only. |

| `lengthFilter` | `under4` \| `between420` \| `plus20` | `null` | Search only (<4min / 420min / >20min). |
| `isHD` `hasSubtitles` `hasCC` `is3D` `isLive` `isBought` `is4K` `is360` `hasLocation` `isHDR` `isVR180` | `bool` | `null` | Search feature filters (encoded into `sp=`). |
| `oldestPostDate` | `string` (date) | `null` | Channel cutoff; day-accurate (relative times). |
| `sortVideosBy` | `NEWEST` \| `POPULAR` \| `OLDEST` | `null` | Channel videos tab sort chip. |

| `collaborators` | `[{ name, username, url }]` | when present |
| `translatedTitle` `translatedText` | str | when `subtitlesLanguage != "en"` |

---
## Configuration
- **Proxy** — required for real runs; configured via `app/utils/proxy.py`
(residential rotating gateway env vars). With no proxy configured the fetchers
fall back to one-shot direct `AsyncFetcher` calls (fine for local tests, not
for production).
- **Concurrency**`scraper._FANOUT_CONCURRENCY` (16). The gateway handled 64
parallel flows with zero failures in a ramp probe, so this leaves headroom.
- **Rotation**`innertube._BLOCK_STATUSES` (`403`, `429`) and
`_MAX_ROTATIONS` (3).
---
## Testing
- **Offline unit tests** (no network) — run these on every change:
```bash
cd surfsense_backend
.venv/Scripts/python.exe -m pytest tests/unit/scrapers/youtube/
```
- `test_parsers.py` — parser/normalization + filter-protobuf + URL-resolver
cases against hand-built and (if present) captured real fixtures.
- `test_fetch_resilience.py` — deterministic rotate-on-block (`429`/error →
rotate → `200`, exhaustion, no-rotate on `404`, stealthy fallback) and the
`fan_out` no-session-leak-on-early-stop guarantee, all with stubbed sessions.
- **Live functional harness**`scripts/e2e_youtube_scraper.py` (needs live
network + optional proxy creds). Exercises video/search/channel/comments/
location/collaborators/translation end to end, and **regenerates the offline
fixtures** into `tests/unit/scrapers/youtube/fixtures/`:
```bash
.venv/Scripts/python.exe scripts/e2e_youtube_scraper.py
```
---
## Extending it
- **Add an output field** → populate it in the relevant `parsers.py` function
and add it to `schemas.py`. Because outputs are `extra="allow"`, forgetting the
schema line won't drop the value, but declaring it documents the contract.
- **Add a URL kind** → extend `url_resolver.resolve_url` + add a `_*_flow` in
`scraper.py` and a branch in `_dispatch`.
- **Add a search filter** → add the field to `YouTubeScrapeInput` and encode it
in `search_filters.build_search_params` (verify byte-for-byte against a real
YouTube `sp=` token in the unit test).
### Known ceilings (grep `ponytail:` in the source for the live list)
- Hashtag pages are routed through search (`#tag` query), not a dedicated
hashtag browse.
- `oldestPostDate` / `oldestCommentDate` cutoffs are day-accurate at best
(channel/list pages only expose coarse relative times like "2 years ago").
- Keyless-vs-keyed InnerTube retry does one extra request on the keyed path
instead of remembering which worked.
- Video-path `commentsCount` (see above).
- Playlist scraping reads only the first `/browse` page (~100 videos); paging
the continuation token for longer playlists is not yet wired.
