Github Action for posting to YouTube Channel

For setting up Google API OAUTH See page: https://github.com/porjo/youtubeuploader

To change youtube channel to post on:

1. Download the client_secret.json
2. use the command line:

./youtubeuploader -secrets client_secret.json -filename video.mp4

3. This will open oAUTH and ask for user details
4. It will then ask you the youtube channel to post on.
5. A new request.token file will be generated.
6. Base64 encode for the github action.

base64 -i request.token -o request.token.b64
base64 -i client_secret.json -o client_secret.b64

7. Upload to Github under the Settings > Secrets > Actions as:
   • CLIENT_SECRETS_B64
   • REQUEST_TOKEN_B64

Example Curl request:

curl -X POST \
  -H "Accept: application/vnd.github+json" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer github_pat_11111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111" \
