# ytdlp-telegram-bot

This is a telegram bot that uses [yt-dlp](https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp) to download videos from youtube.

My personal use-case is combining this with Jellyfin. 

## Usage

```bash

git clone https://github.com/CommanderRedYT/ytdlp-telegram-bot

cd ytdlp-telegram-bot

yarn install

# Configure

cp .env.default .env

# Edit .env to your needs

# Run

yarn start

```

## Systemd service

The service file is located at 'ytdlp-telegram-bot.service'. Replace  with the user that should run the service and `/path/to/telegram-yt-dlp` with the path to the cloned repository.

Then, to install the service, run:

```bash

sudo cp ytdlp-telegram-bot.service /etc/systemd/system/

sudo systemctl daemon-reload

sudo systemctl enable ytdlp-telegram-bot

sudo systemctl start ytdlp-telegram-bot

```

## Configuration

```bash

# .env

TELEGRAM_BOT_TOKEN=

JWT_SECRET=

DATA_DIRECTORY=

CHMOD=

```

## Bot commands

```

/start - Start the bot. This will generate and print a token.

/token  - Authenticate with the bot. After that, you can just send a youtube link to download it.
