MediaKit is a command line tool for downloading videos from YouTube.

  • Quickly download YouTube videos with a single command on your terminal

Installation

To install MediaKit, you'll need to have Python 3 (>= 3.6) and pip already installed on your computer. With those packages available, run:

pip install mediakit

or

pip3 install mediakit

How to use

You can download a video with MediaKit by running:

mediakit <video_url> [<output_path>]
  • video_url: the URL of the YouTube video to download (e.g. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=...).
  • output_path: optional destination folder to where to save the downloads. If not provided, this will default to the current directory.

After running this command, an interactive CLI will guide you through the download process.

Note: You can also provide a name for the downloaded file. To do that, include it in the output path (e.g. path/to/folder/video.mp4).

Examples of use:

Download to the current directory

mediakit https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m7AFEULF9LI

Download to ~/Videos

mediakit https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m7AFEULF9LI ~/Videos

Download to ~/Videos with name song.mp4

mediakit https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m7AFEULF9LI ~/Videos/song.mp4
