:dart: About

MetaTube downloads video from YouTube and can add metadata from a specified metadata provider on the downloaded file.

:sparkles: Features

It's finished (for now) and these features are currently supported:

:heavy_check_mark: Fetch information from a YouTube video based on an URL <br /> :heavy_check_mark: Query and fetch results from the Musicbrainz API, the Spotify Web API, and the Deezer API <br /> :heavy_check_mark: Set up templates and options for the YouTube download <br /> :heavy_check_mark: Download YouTube videos based on a selected template <br /> :heavy_check_mark: Exclude fragments (such as intros, outros, etc.) from the download <br /> :heavy_check_mark: Metadata from either the user or the chosen metadata provider can be merged with MP3, Opus, FLAC, WAV, OGG, M4A & MP4 files <br /> :heavy_check_mark: Hardware encoding using NVENC, Intel Quick Sync <br /> :heavy_check_mark: Hardware encoding is supported, but not yet tested for Video Toolbox, Video Acceleration API (VAAPI), AMD AMF & OpenMax OMX <br /> :heavy_check_mark: Manually set height and width, if a video type has been selected <br /> :heavy_check_mark: Store the information about downloaded releases in the database, to edit the downloaded metadata or the file itself later after the download <br /> :heavy_check_mark: Dark mode is available <br /> :heavy_check_mark: Docker is supported

I'm currently not planning on adding any new features; I'll only fix any bugs, but if you have a nice feature, feel free to create an issue, and I'll decide whether I'll actually do it.

Before starting :checkered_flag:, you need to have Git and Python 3.8 or higher installed.

:checkered_flag: Starting

:whale: Using Docker

CLI docker:

docker run \
  -d \
  --name metatube \
  --restart always \
  -p 5000:5000 \
  -e PORT=5000 \
  -e HOST=0.0.0.0 \
  -v /downloads:/downloads:rw \
  -v /metatube/database:/database:rw \
  -v /metatube/migrations:/config/migrations \
  jvt038/metatube:latest

Docker-compose:

version: '3.3'
services:
    metatube:
        container_name: metatube
        restart: always
        image: jvt038/metatube:latest
        ports:
            - '5000:5000'
        environment:
            - PORT=5000
            - HOST=0.0.0.0
        volumes:
            - '/downloads:/downloads:rw'
            - '/metatube/database:/database:rw'
            - '/metatube/migrations:/config/migrations:rw'

You need to set the variable DATABASE_URL to a custom mount point (in these examples /database), because otherwise your database file will reset everytime the Docker container updates.

:hammer_and_wrench: Manually build and start server

# Clone this project
$ git clone https://github.com/JVT038/metatube

# Access
$ cd metatube

# Skip these steps if you don't want to use a virtual environment
# Install virtualenv
$ pip install virtualenv
# Create virtual environment in current directory
$ virtualenv .
# Activate environment
# Windows:
$ cd Scripts
$ activate
# Linux:
$ source bin/activate
 
# Navigate to the root directory
$ cd ../

# Install dependencies
$ pip install -r requirements.txt

# If you're using Windows, you need to install python-magic-bin
$ pip install python-magic-bin
# If you're using Debian / Ubuntu, you'll need to install libmagic1
$ sudo apt-get install libmagic1
# If you're using iOS, you'll need to install libmagic
$ brew install libmagic

# Run the file
$ python metatube.py

# The server will initialize in the <http://localhost:5000>

You can set the following environment variables:

Name	Description	Default value
PORT	Set the port on which the MetaTube server will be available	5000
HOST	Set the address on which the MetaTube server will run	127.0.0.1
DEBUG	Whether to enable debug mode or not	False
DATABASE_URL	The URL to your Database. Currently only SQLite3 is supported.	sqlite:///app.db
FFMPEG	An absolute path to the folder containing ffmpeg.	Empty
DOWNLOADS	An absolute path to the default download folder	/absolute/path/to/MetaTube/downloads; absolute path will be calculated automatically
LOG	Whether to keep logs or not	False
SOCKET_LOG	Whether to log in- and outcoming websocket connections; warning: your console can be spammed with connections	False
LOG_LEVEL	Numeric value from which MetaTube will keep logs. Info here	10
URL_SUBPATH	Set the URL subpath, if you want to run MetaTube on a subpath. Example: `/metatube` will run the server on `host:port/metatube`	/
INIT_DB	Automatically initialize the database and make all migrations. Set to 'False' if you're having issues with migrations	True

# On Windows 10, you can set an environment variable like this: 
$ set ENVIRONMENT_VARIABLE = Value

# On Linux and MacOS, you can set an environment variable like this:
$ export ENVIRONMENT_VARIABLE = Value

Additionally you can create a file called .flaskenv and set the environment variables in there. An example is provided in example.flaskenv. You can use that template and rename the file to .flaskenv.

Fix the artist values

So I recently discovered I made a mistake in the process of adding artists to files. <br/> Some songs have tags multiple artists, and I noticed these tags were misinterpreted by my audio player. <br/> Basically, the TPE1 tag contained was like this: ['artist 1; artist 2'], while it should've been ['artist 1', 'artist 2']. <br/> Thanks to #310 I discovered this, corrected it in metadata.py and wrote a small script in fixartists.py to fix the existing audio files that had the tags in the wrong way. <br/> Put all the wrong audio files in one directory, run the file and enter the path to the directory containing the incorrect tags, and it should be fixed. <br/> My apologies for this (annoying) bug.

Not finished (I'll probably never finish this lol)

Disclaimer

I made this project to educate myself about Python, and to learn how metadata works in combination with files. Additionally, I want to emphasize I do NOT encourage any pirating, or any other illegal activities. This project's purpose isn't to illegally download content from YouTube; its purpose is to educate and enlighten myself (and others viewing the source code) about Python, how Python interacts with metadata in files, and metadata works, and how yt-dlp works. I am not responsible if the user downloads illegal content, or faces any (legal) consequences.
