Usage

yt_archive --output-dir ./backup https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC7edjYPNhTm5LYJMT7UMt0Q/videos https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC6cMYsKMx6XicFcFm7mTsmA

You may notice this will also place a file in your backup folder called 'download_archive.txt'.

Don't delete that as it's used to ensure videos are only downloaded once (if you remove it and re-run the above command existing videos will be re-downloaded).

Running the tests

pip install -r requirements-dev.txt
pytest tests

Running the linter

pip install -r requirements-dev.txt
