Dockerized 4K Video Downloader + NordVPN

Dockerized 4K Video Downloader + NordVPN

Why?

The best youtube video downloader that I know is 4K Video Downloader. But there is a couple of issues:

• the downloader works only in window manager => not suited for servers
• the more channels you subscribed to, the sooner you get a captcha on youtube Current project solves both issues.

Features

• Easy installation and using
• Bypass video download restrictions using NordVPN
• 4k here doesn't need a window manager to use it, only docker
• WebUI access to 4k
• 4K updates to the newest version if you rebuild container

Prerequisites

• NordVPN account is mandatory
• 4K VideoDownloader license is advantage

Installation

1. copy .env.example to .env and add NordVPN credentials
2. sudo docker-compose up
3. go to http://localhost:8887
4. close actiona and configure 4k: add channels, license and etc
5. restart docker-compose

Using your 4k-config

1. copy .env.example to .env and add NordVPN credentials
2. copy ~/.config/4kdownload.com/4K Video Downloader.conf to project folder 4k_data/config. Check the locale is equal to nothing (== english locale)

locale=

3. start container until the moment 4k loads and then stop container
4. replace sqlite-database in 4k_data/database with yours database from ~/.local/share/4kdownload.com/4K Video Downloader/4K Video Downloader/
5. restart docker-compose

Todo

• configuration only with files (channels, license and etc) without moving the mouse
• 4k api: add channels, videos with get/post requests
• telegram bot
• the actiona script refactoring
