For an application, I need to get a list of videos/streams posted by a user. I have read through the twitch.tv API (https://github.com/justintv/Twitch-API) but I am unable to find anything. All I can find is how to obtain a list of videos/streams that a user has subscribed to.
Can someone please help me to obtain the list of videos posted by a user?
Thanks!
I'm not sure if you are talking about twitch highlights or past broadcasts. If you are looking for highlights, you can get those from:
https://api.twitch.tv/kraken/channels/USERNAME/videos?limit=10
The limit can be changed to get as many as you need. The results are returned as a JSON and look like this:
{
"_total": 179,
"videos": [
{
"title": "Twitch Weekly - February 6, 2015",
"description": "Twitch Weekly LIVE on February 6, 2015!",
"broadcast_id": 13019796368,
"status": "recorded",
"tag_list": "",
"_id": "c6055863",
"recorded_at": "2015-02-06T21:01:09Z",
"game": null,
"length": 4015,
"preview": "http://static-cdn.jtvnw.net/jtv.thumbs/archive-621292653-320x240.jpg",
"url": "http://www.twitch.tv/twitch/c/6055863",
"views": 318,
"broadcast_type": "highlight",
"_links": {
"self": "https://api.twitch.tv/kraken/videos/c6055863",
"channel": "https://api.twitch.tv/kraken/channels/twitch"
},
"channel": {
"name": "twitch",
"display_name": "Twitch"
}
},
...
],
"_links": {
"self": "https://api.twitch.tv/kraken/channels/twitch/videos?limit=10&offset=0",
"next": "https://api.twitch.tv/kraken/channels/twitch/videos?limit=10&offset=10"
}
}
If your would like the past broadcasts for a video, you can get those from:
https://api.twitch.tv/kraken/channels/USERNAME/videos?broadcasts=true
They are also returned as a JSON and look similar to this:
"videos": [
