Upload video to Youtube via android studio

Question

I'm a new programmer in Android studio.

I am trying to create a button that gets a file location and uploads it to my youtube account:

I succeeded to get a video file's directory in my android code:

File mediaFile = 
    new File(Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory().getAbsolutePath()....)

I added a button that calls UploadToYoutube function.

Now I would like to upload it to my youtube account through the file path I have.

Can someone direct me?

Any help appreciated!

Here is my working code

        ContentValues content = new ContentValues(4);
        content.put(MediaStore.Video.VideoColumns.DATE_ADDED,
                System.currentTimeMillis() / 1000);
        content.put(MediaStore.Video.Media.MIME_TYPE, "video/mp4");
        content.put(MediaStore.Video.Media.DATA, path);
        ContentResolver resolver = getActivity().getContentResolver();
        Uri uri1 =  Uri.fromFile(new File(path)); 

        Intent sharingIntent = new Intent(android.content.Intent.ACTION_SEND);
        sharingIntent.setType("video/*");
        sharingIntent.setPackage("com.google.android.youtube");
        sharingIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_TITLE, "Title");
        sharingIntent.putExtra(android.content.Intent.EXTRA_SUBJECT, "Desc");
        sharingIntent.putExtra(android.content.Intent.EXTRA_STREAM, uri1);
        startActivity(Intent.createChooser(sharingIntent, "Share to"));
