vsmutok/ytscrape v0.1.3 on GitHub

💬 Collect the comments of a video with YouTube.comments(video). Pass a
video id or any YouTube URL and iterate over the returned CommentThread;
it transparently pages through every comment (and reply), just like search
results. Comments are exposed as a new Comment model (author, text, like &
reply counts, published time, is_reply).
↳ Optional reply collection: YouTube.comments(video, include_replies=True)
now also expands the replies of every comment thread. Each reply has
is_reply=True and is yielded right after the comment it replies to; the CLI
gained a matching --replies flag.
🖥️ New CLI command:
python -m ytscrape comments <video> [--max N] [--replies] [--sort top|newest].
🔀 New sort option for comment collection:
YouTube.comments(video, sort=CommentSort.NEWEST) (or sort="newest"). The
new CommentSort enum (TOP / NEWEST) is exported from the package top
level, and the CLI gained a matching --sort flag.
📚 New example examples/07_video_comments.py showing how to collect
comments (and their replies).
❤️ Richer Comment model: new heart flag (whether the video's creator
hearted the comment) plus like_count_text / reply_count_text fields that
keep YouTube's raw counts, including abbreviations such as 1.2K that the
integer like_count / reply_count cannot represent exactly.
