DESCRIPTION

To protect children.

I developed this program to find and flag videos as inappropriate material.

README at http://www.youtube.com/profile?user=ermeyers.

I run by youtube/tag/tag.plx armed to flag videos.

With regard to the colored Video Tag and Video Author labels displayed, corresponding to the Video's tags or the Author's username at YouTube:

Green : Found, and your tag string matched Exactly.

Yellow : Found, but your tag string matched in a Partial or a Fuzzy way.

Red : no match found.

There are options for this:

--ml_vlbt_want=[all|found_(tagged|author)|not_found_(tagged|author)] ## What's saved and displayed

--xml_api_vlbt_want=[all|found_(tagged|author)|not_found_(tagged|author)] ## What's saved

--html_api_vlbt_want=[all|found_(tagged|author)|not_found_(tagged|author)] ## What's displayed

So now, your ready for the tag application: ( vlbt = youtube.videos.list_by_tag )

Let's setup to play videos by 'tag'

As your username:

$ [ ! -d ~/youtube || ! -d ~/youtube/video ] && man WWW::YouTube

TAG SETUP [1] for Mozilla Firefox Web Browser

This Mozilla Firefox setup is an EXPERIMENTAL setup:

This is a functional prototype, a work in progress, so please be flexible for a while. Thanks.

Mozilla browsers, Mozilla Firefox included, have a -remote option.

I've created a mozilla_tag_agent.sh script to utilize Mozilla's remote capability.

If you have a different but compatible Mozilla browser, than you're still ok, because there's a switch available for you to override the Mozilla browser setting to use your Mozilla browser program instead. If something's wrong, then please email me to let me know what doesn't work for you.

As your root:

# mkdir /var/www/html/images ## web application images directory

# GET

http://search.cpan.org/src/ERMEYERS/WWW-YouTube-2008.0728/youtube/images/ERMpowered.gif

> /var/www/html/images/ERMpowered.gif

# chmod a+r /var/www/html/images/ERMpowered.gif

# mkdir /var/www/cgi-bin/youtube

# mkdir /var/www/cgi-bin/youtube/tag

# GET

http://search.cpan.org/src/ERMEYERS/WWW-YouTube-2008.0728/youtube/tag/mozilla_tag.php

> /var/www/cgi-bin/youtube/tag/mozilla_tag.php

# chmod a+x /var/www/cgi-bin/youtube/tag/mozilla_tag.php

# mkdir /var/www/youtube

# mkdir /var/www/youtube/tag ## ( mozilla_tag.php --> mozilla_tag_agent.sh ) control directory

# ln -s ~username/youtube /var/www/html/youtube

As your username:

$ GET

http://search.cpan.org/src/ERMEYERS/WWW-YouTube-2008.0728/youtube/tag/mozilla_tag_agent.sh

> ~/youtube/tag/mozilla_tag_agent.sh

$ chmod +x ~/youtube/tag/mozilla_tag_agent.sh

my default browser:

$ ~/youtube/tag/tag.plx --yt_canon_tag=very_nbsp_hot_nbsp_girl --yt_mozilla

$ ~/youtube/tag/tag.plx --yt_canon_tag=very_nbsp_hot_nbsp_girl --yt_mozilla --yt_mozilla_bin=/usr/bin/firefox

select your alternative browser:

$ ~/youtube/tag/tag.plx --yt_canon_tag=very_nbsp_hot_nbsp_girl --yt_mozilla --yt_mozilla_bin=/usr/bin/mozilla

You should see something come up, after a short period of time, like your favorite web browser with a 'very hot girl' exposing herself somewhere in it.

The Mozilla tag agent script

Let's see what the mozilla_tag_agent.sh script was created to do for you.

If you don't have Mozilla Firefox, then you'll need to edit the mozilla_tag_agent.sh script to set it up for your Mozilla browser.

Find the line with "./tag.plx $CMD"

Change it to "./tag.plx $CMD --yt_mozilla_bin=/usr/bin/mozilla"

Where "/usr/bin/mozilla" is the absolutely correct path to your specific Mozilla browser.

Before we start the agent, let's take a look to see what is going on in the background.

I'm going to use /usr/bin/firefox here, but you should use your Mozilla browser instead.

As your username:

$ ( /usr/bin/firefox http://localhost/cgi-bin/youtube/tag/mozilla_tag.php 2>&1 ) > /dev/null &

I assume that the /var/www/youtube/tag directory is still empty.

$ ls -1 /var/www/youtube/tag

Yep, I think it's still unused.

Enter the Tag: very hot girl please, then press the Enter button.

Let's take a look at what happened, and why.

$ ls -1 /var/www/youtube/tag

/var/www/youtube/tag/tag.ctl

Contents of tag.ctl:

--yt_mozilla --yt_canon_tag=very_nbsp_hot_nbsp_girl --ml_vlbt_want=all --ml_delay_sec=1 --ml_first_page=1 --ml_max_pages=2 --ml_per_page=6 --html_columns=3 --html_watch_size=large_window

NOTE: The canonical tag form is _nbsp_ for spaces, meaning "non-breaking" space, like &nbsp; in html.

/var/www/youtube/tag/tag_very_nbsp_hot_nbsp_girl

This is simply a touched null-file eventually to be renamed tag_very_nbsp_hot_nbsp_girl.please_delete_me to tell the mozilla_tag_agent.sh script to remove the same named tag directory along with this tag directory control file.

Let's start your mozilla_tag_agent.sh script to process that pending tag request in tag.ctl.

$ ~/youtube/tag/mozilla_tag_agent.sh

We're done with the command line, so just watch the agent do its work for now.

TAG SETUP [2] for Apache httpd

This Apache setup is an EXPERIMENTAL setup (Considered a SECURITY RISK by SELinux).

So there may come a user named apache to play videos by 'tag' with you.

As your username:

$ chmod -R a+w ~/youtube/video

$ chmod a+w ~/youtube/tag

As your root:

# ln -s ~username/WWW /var/www/WWW

# ln -s ~username/youtube /var/www/html/youtube

As your username:

$ GET

http://search.cpan.org/src/ERMEYERS/WWW-YouTube-2008.0728/youtube/tag/apache_tag.php

> ~/youtube/tag/apache_tag.php

$ chmod a+x ~/youtube/tag/apache_tag.php

$ GET http://localhost/youtube/tag/tag.php ## DOES THIS WORK FOR YOU NOW?

About my SELinux:

I currently have FC4 Linux, Apache 2.0, and I couldn't use perl, or CGI.pm or load mod_perl.so at all.

My SELinux didn't allow me to run perl CGI scripts under Apache's httpd.

My SELinux didn't allow me to load mod_perl.so into Apache's httpd in perl.conf.

My SELinux didn't allow me to use symbolic links under Apache's httpd directories.

My FC4 Linux 'Security Level Config' script is named /usr/bin/system-config-securitylevel.

I checked "Disable SELinux protection for httpd daemon," so that I could run perl CGI scripts.

I'm not happy with this SELinux configuation issue, since it's being considered an SELinux SECURITY RISK, so I developed TAG SETUP [1] for Mozilla Firefox Web Browser. Now I'm very happy. ( #; >#)##
