I made a menu-driven CLI frontend for yt-dlp. Feedback is welcomed. (github.com)

I made this Python menu-driven CLI script for yt-dlp. It guides you through a series of menus to download content from a YouTube URL.

If anyone is interested, feedback would be greatly appreciated as only I have tested this so far, and I want to make sure it works for other people's systems.

If you encounter any issues or bugs, let me know so I can fix them!

Edit: I should mention: This is not a pipx package. That was never the intention developing this initially. I might make it a package in the future, but for now, it is just a project directory.

I tried to run it but it wouldn't on the version of python I have.

If you could bring yourself to use if .. elif .. etc instead of match then it could run it on much older versions of python.

What version of Python were you using?

[–] rimu@piefed.social 1 points 3 days ago (1 children)

3.9

[–] AstroLightz@lemmy.world 1 points 2 days ago

I'm testing different Python versions to see what the minimum is for yt-dlp-adv is. I know 3.10 is when they added match-case, so 3.9 isn't supported. Will update README with minimum working version after I'm done testing.
