3e33e77 Avoid launching subprocess when there is nothing to download
~jshholland pushed to ~jshholland/spektilo git
spektilo is a utility for downloading new videos from YouTube
channels with yt-dlp or a similar tool.
You will need to set up a configuration file called spektilo.toml in
the top level of the target directory. A sample configuration file
looks like this:
downloader = "yt-dlp" # optional string
downloader_opts = ["--retries", "infinite"] # optional list of strings, defaults to empty
[subs]
rust = "UCaYhcUwRBNscFNUKTjgPFiA"
MozillaDeveloper = "UCh5UlGiu9d6LegIeUCW4N1w"
For each item name = "id" in the subs table (which is mandatory,
but may rather uselessly be empty), spektilo will create a directory
called name in to download new videos into using yt-dlp. On the
first run, it will download all videos referenced in the Atom feed
(this is probably not what you want and will be fixed Real Soon Now),
but on each run it updates a file called .spektilo.state at the top
level of the target directory to keep track of successfully downloaded
videos.
