This code handles YouTube OAuth2 authentication in a Django application. Here's what's happening: The youtube_connect function initiates the OAuth2 flow. It creates a Flow object with the necessary client configuration, scopes, and redirect URI. It then generates an authorization URL and redirects the user to Google's authentication page. The youtube_callback function handles the callback after user authentication. It retrieves the authorization code from the query parameters, creates another Flow object, and attempts to exchange the code for an access token. If successful, it fetches the user's email and channel ID using the token. The function returns an HTTP response indicating success or failure of the authentication process. Both functions use environment variables for client credentials and implement security measures like HTTPS enforcement and state verification. The code also includes error handling and logging for debugging purposes.
