REST APIs & Upload

StreamTube adheres to the WordPress REST API standards, facilitating seamless integration and extension with third-party applications. Developers can leverage the REST API to build custom applications.

For comprehensive instructions, please refer to the official WordPress REST API Handbook:

2. Authentication

2.a) Application Passwords:

Create An App Password

Go to your frontend Dashboard.
Navigate to the Account section.
Select App Password.
In the "App name" field, enter a descriptive name for the application you'll be using this password with.
Click the "Add New Application Password" button.
Save the generated password in a secure location. It will not be displayed again.

Manage App Passwords via REST API

2.b) Bearer Access Token

You can also authenticate using a Bearer Token.

Generate an Access Token:

Access your frontend Dashboard.
Go to Account and select Access Token.
Enter your password and click "Create a token" button.
Remember to save the generated token in a safe place, as it will not be shown again.

// Generate an access token using command line
$ curl -X POST "https://domain.com.com/wp-json/jwt-auth/v1/token" \
     -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
     -d '{"username": "my_user", "password": "my_wp_password"}'

4. Get Video

5. Update Video

6. Delete Video

7. Upload Video

Bash

// Upload with App Password Authentication (Basic Auth)
$ curl 'https://domain.com/wp-json/streamtube/v1/upload' \
     --user 'my_user:my_app_password' \
     --form "file=@path/file.mp4;type=video/mp4"

// Upload with Bearer Token Authentication
$ curl 'https://domain.com/wp-json/streamtube/v1/upload' \
      --header 'Authorization: Bearer YOUR_JWT_TOKEN' \
      --form "file=@path/file.mp4;type=video/mp4"

Python

import requests
url = 'https://domain.com/wp-json/streamtube/v1/upload'
headers = {'Authorization': 'Bearer YOUR_JWT_TOKEN'}
files = {'file': ('file.mp4', open('path/file.mp4', 'rb'), 'video/mp4')}
try:
    response = requests.post(url, headers=headers, files=files)
    response.raise_for_status()  # Raise an exception for bad status codes
    print(response.text)  # Or response.json() if the response is JSON
except requests.exceptions.RequestException as e:
    print(f"Error: {e}")

Javascript

const url = 'https://domain.com/wp-json/streamtube/v1/upload';
const token = 'YOUR_JWT_TOKEN';
const filePath = 'path/file.mp4'; // Adapt to your environment
async function uploadFile() {
  try {
    const formData = new FormData();
    const response = await fetch(filePath);
    const blob = await response.blob();
    formData.append('file', blob, 'file.mp4');
    const uploadResponse = await fetch(url, {
      method: 'POST',
      headers: {
        Authorization: `Bearer ${token}`,
      },
      body: formData,
    });
    if (!uploadResponse.ok) {
      throw new Error(`HTTP error! status: ${uploadResponse.status}`);
    }
    const data = await uploadResponse.text(); // or uploadResponse.json()
    console.log(data);
  } catch (error) {
    console.error('Error:', error);
  }
}
uploadFile();

PHP

<?php
$url = 'https://domain.com/wp-json/streamtube/v1/upload';
$token = 'YOUR_JWT_TOKEN';
$filePath = 'path/file.mp4';
$ch = curl_init($url);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POST, true);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, array(
    'Authorization: Bearer ' . $token,
));
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, array(
    'file' => curl_file_create($filePath, 'video/mp4', 'file.mp4'),
));
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
$response = curl_exec($ch);
if (curl_errno($ch)) {
    echo 'Curl error: ' . curl_error($ch);
} else {
    $http_code = curl_getinfo($ch, CURLINFO_HTTP_CODE);
    if ($http_code >= 200 && $http_code < 300) {
        echo $response; // or json_decode($response, true);
    } else {
        echo "HTTP error: " . $http_code . "\n";
    }
}
curl_close($ch);
