- **yt5** is a [Python](https://python.org) script that downloads [YouTube](https://www.youtube.com) ***Videos*** & ***audios*** at `console` environment.
## Installation ##
Download binaries for your system from [here](https://github.com/Simatwa/yt6/releases/latest) .
**OR** :
- From Github - *source*
```
git clone https://github.com/Simatwa/yt5.git
cd yt5
python setup.py install
```
- From Pypi
```
pip install yt5
```
## Usage ##
#### Video ####
- Videos can be downloaded by parsing a `URI` prefixed or postfixed by its category:
- For instances:
1. Single video :
```
$ yt5 url
```
- Alternatively, this can be done by omitting `url` command since it's the default category.
```
$ yt5
```
2. All videos in a Playlist :
```
$ yt5 playlist
```
3. All videos in a Channel :
```
$ yt5 channel
```
4. Collection of single-video's URI contained in a text file :
```
$ yt5 fnm
```
#### Audio ####
- Audio of a video can be downloaded by adding `--mp3` to the commands parsed.
- For instance:
1. Single audio :
```
$ yt5 url --mp3
```
- Similarly, this can be done to **other** ***categories***.
- For further information you can run:
```
$ yt5 -h
```
* Output :
```
usage: yt5 [-h] [-v] [-res [720p|480p|360p|240p|144p]] [-max MAXIMUM] [-dir DIRECTORY] [--mp3]
