# blackrock

> A simple cli app for downloading YouTube videos.

Based on [bitreel](https://github.com/archer884/bitreel) ("BR"), this downloader ("BRD" -- get it? Ha!) is just a convenient way to grab videos from YouTube.

## Usage

```sh
$ brd [] [--format ]
$
```

The program doesn't actually produce any output; it just saves the video to `.mp4` in your working directory.

You can also use the program to list available formats for a given video. (Note: YouTube pretty much only makes available three formats).

```sh
$ brd --list-formats
small
medium
hd720
```

If a format is not provided for the download command, it will download the largest available format.

## Changelog

* **v0.2:** Demoted format argument in favor of an optional output file path. This seems like it would be way more useful in most cases.
