youtube2podcast: turn YouTube videos into a podcast

README.rst

A couple of scripts I use to turn YouTube videos into podcasts.

Example:

$ youtube2podcast https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p22LSKPUxJk https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zEqDbsPUgH8
...
Starting podcast server...
http://0.0.0.0:9431/youtube-podcast

Requires avconv, youtube-dl, and dir2podcast:

$ brew install avconv
$ pip install youtube-dl
$ pip install https://github.com/wolever/dir2podcast/archive/master.zip

youtube2mp3

#!/bin/bash

IFS="`printf "\n\t"`"
set -eu

TEMPDIR="$PWD" outputdir="$(mktemp -d youtube2mp3-XXXX)"
trap "rm -rf '$PWD/$outputdir' 2>&1 > /dev/null" EXIT

if [[ -z "${1-}" ]]; then
    echo "usage: $0 --video YOUTUBE_URL [YOUTUBE_URL ...]"
    exit 1
fi

last_is_video=0
while [[ "$#" -gt 0 ]]; do
    if [[ "$1" == "--video" || "$1" == "-v" ]]; then
        last_is_video=1
        shift
        continue
    fi
    url="$1"
    shift

    if [[ -d "$outputdir" ]]; then
        rm -r "$outputdir"
    fi
    mkdir "$outputdir"
    pushd "$outputdir" > /dev/null
    if [[ "$last_is_video" -eq 0 ]]; then
        youtube-dl --format=worst -v "$url"
        video="$(echo *)"
        audio="${video%.*}.mp3"
        avconv -i "$video" "$audio"
    else
        youtube-dl -v "$url"
        video="$(echo *)"
        mkdir outdir
        video-to-iphone -o outdir "$video"
        audio="$(find outdir | head -n1)"
    fi
    popd > /dev/null
    mv "$outputdir/$audio" .
    echo "SAVED: $audio"
    rm -r "$outputdir"
done
