https:\/\/github.com\/nficano\/pytube<\/a><\/p>\nThis library had some interesting features and literally blew away the keepvid site in regards to flexibility. Here is some explaining of what this library can do. Please have a look at the examples below, I will do my best to narrate them.<\/p>\n
Here I use PIP to install the PYTUBE lib, you can ignore the DEPRECATION: warning for my outdated python that blares at you for being such an idiot. <\/p>\n
\r\n[root@jasonralph ~]# pip install pytube\r\nDEPRECATION: Python 2.6 is no longer supported by the Python core team, please upgrade your Python. A future version of pip will drop support for Python 2.6\r\nCollecting pytube\r\n Using cached pytube-6.1.8.tar.gz\r\nInstalling collected packages: pytube\r\n Running setup.py install for pytube ... done\r\nSuccessfully installed pytube-6.1.8\r\n<\/pre>\nNext up you can see that I am setting a variable yt(this is the video you want to download). Using python’s Pretty Print Lib you can run the pprint(yt.get_videos() method to see what formats are available for download. <\/p>\n
Please have a look at the comments in the code for a bit more details in regards to what is going on, in this example I am using the filename Pulp_Fiction.mp4 for my filename I want to be when downloaded. <\/p>\n
\r\n[jralph@jasonralph ~]$ cat py_video_downloader.py\r\nfrom pytube import YouTube\r\nfrom pprint import pprint\r\n\r\nyt = YouTube(\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=Ik-RsDGPI5Y\")\r\n\r\npprint(yt.get_videos())\r\n\r\nprint(yt.filename)\r\n\r\nyt.set_filename('Pulp_Fiction.mp4')\r\n\r\n# Notice that the list is ordered by lowest resolution to highest. If you\r\n# wanted the highest resolution available for a specific file type, you\r\n# can simply do:\r\nprint(yt.filter('mp4')[-1])\r\n# \r\n\r\n# You can also get all videos for a given resolution\r\npprint(yt.filter(resolution='720p'))\r\n\r\n\r\nvideo = yt.get('mp4', '720p')\r\n\r\n# NOTE: get() can only be used if and only if one object matches your criteria.\r\n# for example:\r\n\r\npprint(yt.videos)\r\n\r\n\r\nvideo.download('\/home\/jralph\/')\r\n<\/pre>\nOk so here is what it looks like when you execute the program:<\/p>\n
\r\n[23:32:59] jralph@jasonralph:~ $ python py_video_downloader.py\r\n[,\r\n ,\r\n ,\r\n ,\r\n ,\r\n ]\r\nPulp Fiction - Dancing Scene\r\n\r\n[]\r\n\/usr\/lib\/python2.6\/site-packages\/pytube\/api.py:141: DeprecationWarning: videos property deprecated. Use `get_videos()` instead.\r\n \"instead.\", DeprecationWarning)\r\n[,\r\n ,\r\n ,\r\n ,\r\n ,\r\n ]\r\n<\/pre>\nAs you can see we have a new filename with the video we asked for to watch without a streaming internet connection, here is a ls to show:<\/p>\n
\r\n[23:33:02] jralph@jasonralph:~ $ ls -ltr\r\ntotal 32352\r\ndrwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Mar 20 22:50 image_staging\r\ndrwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Mar 20 22:51 JR.ORG_SITE_BACKUPS\r\n-rwxrwxr-x 1 jralph jralph 691 Apr 3 00:34 py_video_downloader.py\r\n-rw-rw-r-- 1 jralph jralph 33113243 Apr 3 23:33 Pulp_Fiction.mp4.mp4\r\n<\/pre>\nAs always, I am sure there are better ways to do this and I am sure there is cleaner code. Most of this code was taken right from the authors site who is a badass, here is his link:<\/p>\n
