Bulk add items to collections.

Open yougotwill opened this issue 3 months ago • 11 comments

It would be great we could bulk add a list of urls to a collection. Maybe using a textarea where each link is on a new line?```

Example:

A user is usually not expected to be having a bulk of urls, the transfer is usually through youtube playlists instead. This is a specific use case. Perfect for an LLM to manage. I'll keep this in mind.

Could I claim this issue? I could implement a button for bulk URLs to toggle an area for input.

Like I said this is a very specific use case, implementing a 1 on 1 algorithm is useful for one case only. That is why we want to try to use the LLM technology to cover hundreds of specific cases like this.

I have experience with LLMs in this area. I could give it a go. Do you have an Azure or OpenAI key (email me at [email protected])? If not, I could use the free OpenAI API.

@kirannadanam Sorry it took so long but I went to the dev site now and was unable to find where to bulk add items to the listen later collection?

~~Ah! When I pasted some urls into the search it suggested if I wanted to create a new collection.That's a good start 🙏 Next would be to allow us to add to an existing collection please?~~

Never mind I see you are doing it in https://github.com/n-ce/ytify/pull/349

~~I do note that the stream displayed in the player ui is not the stream that is actually playing.~~

Edit: My mistake I had another tab with ytify open that was playing the jazz 😂 So it seems to be working correctly!

I hope you've got it working. but to make things clear. @kirannadanam did not take part in this feature development. And the pull request at #349 was attempted without my knowledge, they should've atleast checked that I had my implementation already in place.

the work that you can test on https://dev--ytify.netlify.app was attempted by me solely. separators that are supported are ' ' (space) , ',' (comma), '\n' (newline)

Ah @n-ce my mistake I tagged the wrong person in a rush this morning. 🙏 Got it thanks for clarifying.
