Building an Arduino Library for YouTube Sight

I’ve recently built a service called YouTube Sight that can extract subscribers data from YouTube Analytics API and give you more accurate subscriber counts since YouTube started to aggregate the results. With it, I’ve built an example sketch but I also wanted to make an Arduino library so people can more easily use it.

A library is a piece of code that can handle a specific operation, process a type of data or can know how to interact with a specific hardware element. They allow us to easily extend the Arduino environment and there are a lot of them that come pre-installed with the Arduino IDE.
In cases like mine, where we want to add new possibilities to the Arduino, we can create our own libraries for other people to use them.

Check out YouTube Sight:

Check out the library at GitHub:

This explained more about libraries, then videos trying to explain them

I just made a youtube counter using code that was shared on the internet. It still working ok at the moment but I guess that's because I'm sub 1000 subscribers. Thank you for making the library. I hope I get enough understanding of arduino that I can use it.

cool vid man. I haven't used C++ for so long that it looked strange: channelStatistics channelStatistics ... I looked at the code in your github - I'd forgotten that structs have lowercase first letters in their names.

Have you published any arduino sketches that use this library to run a 7 segment style display?
