t-youtube-transcript-fetcher/dist/examples/fetch-transcript.js

An enhanced TypeScript library for fetching YouTube transcripts with proxy support (based on youtube-transcript)

import { YoutubeTranscript } from '../src/index.js';
import { HttpsProxyAgent } from 'https-proxy-agent';
async function main() {
    try {
        // Basic usage without proxy
        // const transcript = await YoutubeTranscript.fetchTranscript('Ks-_Mh1QhMc');
        // console.log('First two segments of the transcript:', transcript.slice(0, 2));
        // Example with pre-configured proxy agent (recommended for custom proxy setups)
        /*
        const proxyAgent = new HttpsProxyAgent('https://username:password@proxy.example.com:8080');
        const transcriptWithAgent = await YoutubeTranscript.fetchTranscript('VIDEO_ID', {
          proxyAgent: proxyAgent
        });
        */
        // Alternative: Using proxy configuration object
        /*
        const transcriptWithProxy = await YoutubeTranscript.fetchTranscript('VIDEO_ID', {

            }
          }
        });
