Roadmap

• [x] download normal videos
• [ ] download live videos
• [x] asynchronous API
• [x] blocking API
• [x] proxy options
• [x] cookie options
• [ ] full video info deserialization
• [ ] CLI
• [ ] benchmarks

Usage

```rust,ignore use rusty_ytdl::Video;

[tokio::main]

async fn main() { let video_url = "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FZ8BxMU3BYc"; // FZ8BxMU3BYc works too! let video = Video::new(url).unwrap();

let videodownloadbuffer = video.download().await;

// Do what you want with video buffer vector println!("{:#?}",video_buffer);

// Or with options

let video_options = VideoOptions { quality: VideoQuality::Lowest, filter: VideoSearchOptions::Audio, ..Default::default() };

let video = Video::newwithoptions(url, videooptions).unwrap(); let videodownload_buffer = video.download().await;

// Do what you want with video buffer vector println!("{:#?}",video_buffer); } ```

or get only video informations

```rust,ignore use rustyytdl::Video; use rustyytdl::{choose_format,VideoOptions};

[tokio::main]

async fn main() { let video_url = "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FZ8BxMU3BYc"; // FZ8BxMU3BYc works too! // Also works with live videos!! let video = Video::new(url).unwrap();

let videoinfo = video.getinfo().await.unwrap(); println!("{:#?}",video_info);

/* VideoInfo { ... videodetails: VideoDetails, formats: Vec, relatedvideos: Vec } */

let video_options = VideoOptions { quality: VideoQuality::Lowest, filter: VideoSearchOptions::Audio, ..Default::default() };

let format = chooseformat(&videoinfo.unwrap().formats,&video_options);

println!("{:#?}",format);

// Or with options let video = Video::newwithoptions(url, video_options.clone()).unwrap();

let format = chooseformat(&videoinfo.formats, &video_options);

let videoinfo = video.getinfo().await.unwrap();

println!("{:#?}",video_info); } ```
