function YouTubeGetID(url){

worked best for me (in typescript):

export const youTubeGetID = (url: string) => {
    const [a, , b] = url.replace(/(>|<)/gi, '').split(/^.*(?:(?:youtu\.?be(\.com)?\/|v\/|vi\/|u\/\w\/|embed\/|shorts\/)|(?:(?:watch)?\?v(?:i)?=|\&v(?:i)?=))([^#\&\?]*).*/)
    if (b !== undefined) {
        return b.split(/[^0-9a-z_-]/i)[0]
    } else {
        return a
    }
}
