With twitch's new Helix API, video archive endpoint no longer returns 'chapters' or games info from a video. This is a temporary solution using puppeteer to scrape which game or games is attached to recent vods from the archive.

The script produces output as JSON in the following format:

{
  "video_id": "1442171798",
  "channel": 560363490,
  "chapters": [
    {
      "starts_at": "0h0m1s",
      "game": {
        "game_id": "488552",
        "name": "Overwatch",
        "box_art_url": "https://static-cdn.jtvnw.net/ttv-boxart/488552-{width}x{height}.jpg"
      }
    },
    {
      "starts_at": "2h58m18s",
      "game": {
        "game_id": "509658",
        "name": "Just Chatting",
        "box_art_url": "https://static-cdn.jtvnw.net/ttv-boxart/509658-{width}x{height}.jpg"
      }
    }
  ]
}

Suggestion for this missing feature: Return Tags and Game ID in Get Videos in Helix

Install packages

npm install

Make a settings.js in settings/ with following the example template settings_example.js. If you don't have a client_id and client_secret, you can generate those from dev.twitch.tv.

The main functionality is found in chapterFetch.js. A usage example is in app.js, run with:

npm start

Running it will scrape the chapters and dump the result in out.json
