Stream or download youtube songs from terminal
## Description
- Playt is a CLI app written in Node.js
- It allows to stream or download audio from YouTube with in the Terminal by a simple command
**!! Note**: VLC is required to stream
## Commands
```shell
$ playt search "song name"
```
Searches for the song and returns a list of 10 matching songs.
Choose the one from the list by entering the number corresponding to it and it will stream as well as download the song into a folder named "playtSongs" in the Home directory.
If the song selected is already present in the "playtSongs" folder then it plays the offline/local file and doesn't download it again.
```shell
$ playt download "song name"
```
This command only downloads the selected song and doesn't play it through the terminal.
