Node.js script to download mp3 playlists from Youtube

Description

This Node.js script makes it easy to download MP3 song playlists from YouTube. It takes a .txt file with your search queries, and fetches the first top result for each of your query, placing them in a dedicated folder.

How to use

To get started with this project, follow these steps to set it up on your local machine:

Prerequisites

Before you begin, ensure you have met the following requirements:

• Node.js: You must have Node.js installed on your machine. If you haven't already, you can download it from the official Node.js website

Installation Steps

1. Clone the Repository

   git clone https://github.com/jaroslaw11/y2mp3.git

2. Navigate to the Project Directory

   cd ./path/to/y2mp3

3. Install Dependencies:

   npm install

How to run

1. Create an input .txt file in the "input" folder, For example:

#mysongs.txt

michael jackson - billy jean
simple minds - don`t you
guns n roses - welcome to the jungle

Therefore, it is not necessary to strictly indicate the artist and song title as in the example above, but this is preferable for results accuracy. It then downloads the first search result, which is typically the most relevant match.

2. Now, just simply run it by:

node index.js

3. If all is ok, you should see something like this in your bash:

Processing input file: ./input/mysongs.txt
Download complete for search query: michael jackson - billy jean
Download complete for search query: simple minds - don`t you
Download complete for search query: guns n roses - welcome to the jungle

Now you can observe the created "mysongs" folder in the "output" folder. We go into it and see our mp3 files have been downloaded. That`s it!
