How to Input URL
Closed this issue · 2 comments
I'm attempting to run this project on my local machine, but I can't figure out how to supply the Youtube URL from which I want to scrape comments.
Hi there,
The YouTube URL is entered in the web interface. If you're just looking to scrape comments from a video I would recommend using the hosted version at http://ytcomments.klostermann.ca.
If you'd like to work with the code, you can deploy it on your local machine with Docker (See README), or simply run npm start and open http://localhost:8080/ in your browser.
Please let me know if you run into any issues.
@philbot9 Thanks for getting back to me so quickly! I had used the hosted version but didn't see results displayed after the progress bar finished.
I haven't used Docker before and didn't think to open http://localhost:49161 in my browser. That exposed the interface I was looking for. Thanks!
