tubetoplex

A tool to automatically download youtube and other online videos and import them as episodes into a Custom TV Show in Plex.

Background

There are a lot of videos available for online streaming, but I want to watch these videos during my commute, where I don't have internet access. I save links to these videos I find on a tumblr blog at https://softwaredevvideos.tumblr.com/

This tool will automatically find new videos on the blog that it has not processed yet, download them, move them to a directory of a Custom TV Show, rename them to be picked up in a particular season, and create an NFO file with information about the "episode".

Development

Update dependencies with:

go get -u ./...
go mod tidy

Running

Copy run.sh.sample to run.sh and modify for your environment.

Build a docker container docker build -t tubetoplex .

Run in interactive mode to see logs as they happen. --privileged is used to allow mounting a windows shared folder from the network on a windows host. docker run --rm --privileged -it tubetoplex
