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

Features

• 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 video to download (e.g. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=...).

  As URL's may have special characters, it is recommended that you wrap the URL in double quotes ("") to ensure that it will be recognized properly.

• output_path: optional destination folder to where to save the downloads. If not provided, this will default to the current directory.

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

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

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
