@googleapis/youtubeAnalytics is not published on npm

[aresn]

Documentation here ->https://github.com/googleapis/google-api-nodejs-client/tree/master/src/apis/youtubeAnalytics states that this package exists. However npm install @googleapis/youtubeAnalytics results in a 404

Hi @aresn! We currently don't support publishing all modules independently, only some!

In order to use youtubeAnalytics, please install the googleapis module:

npm i googleapis

Thanks!

@sofisl @aresn @googleapis/youtubeAnalytics is a library we should be able to publish, I believe the root cause of it not publishing is that npm no longer allows uppercase characters in package names.

As @sofisl says, for now you should be able to use googleapis import the library, long term it would be good to address this case sensitivity issue.

Adding a 👍 to this, however unhelpful, because this is the last dependency we have on googleapis, after swapping the rest over to @googleapis/thing, and this one package adds 10 seconds to our Typescript builds.

Pinging this as we updated our eslintrc to lint Typescript types and including the googleapis module has made everything very painful.

I was able to install this package using a lower case "A" in "Analytics", which I think many of you are trying to do.

npm install @googleapis/youtubeanalytics

import { youtubeAnalytics } from  @googleapis/youtubeanalytics

I have had some success in then referencing this like so:

await youtubeAnalytics({version:'v2'}).reports.query( ...

const countryReportResponse = await youtubeAnalytics({version:'v2'}).reports.query({
  startDate,
  endDate,
  ids: `channel==${channelId}`,
  metrics: 'views',
  dimensions: 'country',
  access_token: accessToken,
});
                
console.log(JSON.stringify(countryReportResponse));

This page was marginally helpful to me; Sharing in case it may point someone else in the right direction: https://googleapis.dev/nodejs/googleapis/latest/youtubeAnalytics/classes/Youtubeanalytics-1.html#reports
