Yt transcript

A simple JavaScript API which allows you to get the transcript/subtitles for a given YouTube video. It is inspired by a Python-based project YouTube Transcript API.

Installation

npm install yt-transcript

Usage

import { YtTranscript } from 'yt-transcript';

const ytTranscript = new YtTranscript({videoId: 'dQw4w9WgXcQ'});

ytTranscript.listAllTranscripts().then((transcript) => {
  console.log(transcript);
});

ytTranscript.getTranscript().then((transcript) => {
  console.log(transcript);
});
