This helps with collecting YouTube videos for offline viewing in an easy'ish to use and not so fancy web UI.

Ways of collecting are:

• Searching manually within Tubular.
• Searching by Channel
• Searching from a Playlist
• Bulk collecting via playlist.
• Tracks Downloaded Items via sqlite DB.

Currently thanks to scrapetube and youtube_dl libraries with my own added special sauce. This serves everything through a lightweight FastAPI instance and keeps track of collecting by storing the queue and completed downloads in an sqlite database.

1. clone this repo
2. pip install -r requirements.txt
3. Change the variable download_location in the tubular.py to the location you want to collect your files.
4. Run python tubular.py
5. Navigate to https://{your ip}:8000

• Python 3.x (tested on Python 3.8)

• you can change the download_location variable in the main.py

• You can find them under the packages section to the right or read above.

• Because I hate C#.

• Probably not. This was made in a couple of nights on a few beers and a prayer. If someone wants to help with PR's, it's more than welcome.

• Read above.
