Youtube Audio Downloader 🎵

Easy Audio Downloads from YouTube

This project allows you to easily download audio files from YouTube videos or playlists using a simple command-line interface.

Why This Project? 🤔

I was tired of searching for websites to convert YouTube videos to audio files, only to risk getting viruses or leaking personal data. That's why I created this script to provide a safe and easy way to download audio files from YouTube.

Compatibility 🎉

This script has been tested and works perfectly with both Bash and Zsh shells.

Requirements 📝

To use this script, you'll need to have the following modules installed:

  • Ffmpeg and Ffprobe
  • Python3 with the Mutagen module
  • yt-dlp

Installation 📂

To install the script, follow these steps:

  1. Clone the repository: git clone git@github.com:jean0t/youtube-audio-downloader.git
  2. Change into the repository directory: cd youtube-audio-downloader
  3. Give execution permissions to the script: chmod +x yt_download

Important: Make sure you have all the required modules installed before running the script. You can also add a symbolic link to your system's PATH to run the script from anywhere.

Usage 📊

To download the audio of a YouTube video, simply run:

./yt_download -a [youtube link]
