README.md

rs-youtube

(Mirrored to github from Codeberg)

Command line YouTube/Twitch client that uses the web api so no login or API key is needed.

  • Requires mpv and youtube-dl, or another video player capable of loading videos from YouTube/Twitch links (e.g. celluloid, even a web browser would work)

Installation

  1. Make sure your video player is installed and is accessible by typing its name via command line (Typing mpv should print a help screen, for example)

  2. Install Rust (using rustup)

  3. Install using cargo

cargo install rs-youtube

Compilation

  1. Make sure your video player is installed and is accessible by typing its name via command line (Typing mpv should print a help screen, for example)

  2. Install Rust (using rustup)

  3. Clone and run the project using cargo

git clone https://codeberg.org/j0/rs-youtube
cd rs-youtube
cargo install --path .
rs-youtube(.exe)

Configuration

This program will create a config file the first time it reads config (checking subscriptions or checking video player) in one of these directories:

  • Linux: /home/USER/.config/rs-youtube/config.toml
  • Windows: C:\Users\USER\AppData\Roaming\j0lol\rs-youtube\config\config.toml
  • macOS: /Users/USER/Library/Application Support/com.j0lol.rs-youtube/config.toml

If you would like to edit the config, refer to the config.toml.default file.

The config file defaults to loading mpv, and will have 0 subscriptions. You can subscribe to a channel by searching for its channel page, then picking the "sub" option.
