DLIt - Download It!
A python tui wrapper for yt-dlp.
Instead of having to remember to type yt-dlp -x --audio-format mp3 --audio-quality 0 'https://youtu.be/DXvBWE782uw?si=vgGhooy5_X0BdAPr', or use the up arrow key until I find it in my zsh history, and then clear the link arg and replace it with the next video I want to download, I wanted to make a very simple python program.
I just want highest-quality .mp3 files of my favorite songs, and I get them from youtube using dlp if they're not on bandcamp.
I type dlit in a terminal to open the tui (assuming I have an alias already, and if not, python ~/Documents/Repositories/dlit/app.py)
It should open a tui with a simple input. You paste the video link like so:
https://youtu.be/-WsmHIJ2QJY?si=-lVVj4Q4gIzSvxbF
and it should effectively run yt-dlp -x --audio-format mp3 --audio-quality 0 (the link you just posted)
or some variation depending on how we make this thing.
It should download songs to Downloads. By default yt-dlp downloads to ~.
Later on we could do a settings menu like btop has, where we press escape to see a settings block where we can configure the download folder, yt-dlp flags, etc. We'll get around to that eventually.
Most importantly, DLIt should allow us to queue up youtube links. Typically using yt-dlp from the terminal you have to download one video at a time- our program should let us add to an ongoing queue so that I can minimize the time it takes me to get all the links ready to be downloaded.
The queue should appear in the TUI in a 0% to 100% [ ] sort-of download progress bar.
once that's done we need to add this to my cgit
Features:
Hmm, maybe a preset system. Like you can choose between "No Preset", ".mp3", "full video"
the default being .mp3
if you change a setting it goes to No Preset
