  • pytchat

    Discontinued library for youtube chat.

    • Use pytchat. You can use this guy’s script to execute it https://gist.github.com/Equim-chan/bdb6e64425d10d09196eb5eadfeb600f

  • live-dl

    Monitor and download live streams from YouTube

    • You can also try and combine it with live-dl to automate both recording the livestream and chat at the same time. If you don’t have a VPN, I’d recommend setting the interval to 30-60 seconds to prevent getting rate limited by YouTube.

  • InfluxDB

    Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.

    • Also this fork of live-dl has recording live chat with pytchat already implemented + it supports monitoring member streams. It uses docker. https://github.com/herowinb/live-dl
