# youtube-ripper
Helps you download music compilations from youtube.
Will automatically download the video, split it into chunks,
and apply proper id3v2 tags on all the files (including cover-art)
## Dependencies
- _Asssumes_ that `youtube-dl` and `ffmpeg` are available in `$PATH`
- Takes care of everything else
## Opinions
This software has opinions:
- You care about metadata and tagging your music properly
- All music must have cover art embedded
- You have `youtube-dl` and `ffmpeg` already installed
- I am smart enough to parse youtube descriptions
## Installation
npm install -g youtube-ripper
## Usage
youtube-ripper "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=41Y6xov0ppw"
## Configuration
- Pass a cue file instead of using the youtube description
- `--album-art` Pass custom album art image (Uses the youtube thumbnail by default)
- `--album-artist` Pass a specific Album Artist. (Picks up the artist from the video by default)
- `--genre` Pass a specific genre to use. (Picks up from the video by default)
## HACKING
- If this video does not work on a specific video, please attach the debug log output
- Pull Requests are welcome that add support for a better parser without breaking the existing tests
- Please add tests for any new functionality
