🍻🍻🍻 Record livestreams and upload them to Dropbox 🍻🍻🍻

ffmpeg

Copy config.yaml.example to config.yaml and fill in the values. Get a dropbox_api_access_token from https://dropbox.tech/developers/generate-an-access-token-for-your-own-account.

Create a virtualenv and install requirements.txt into it.

Use cron to run nama_kudasai.py in the virtualenv every so often. It will spawn downloaders as appropriate. The downloaders will upload the archives to channel directories under the nama_kudasai directory in Dropbox.

Mount a volume at /data containing config.yaml and directories named work and logs. This directory will be used as a temp download store so pick somewhere with a moderate amount of disk space.

Example:

docker run -d --name nama_kudasai --volume /home/nama_kudasai:/data nolanlum:nama_kudasai

• Live rewinding is currently broken in Streamlink, the software used to download the stream. If a stream starts before a downloader is started for it, the past segments of the stream are not saved, even if they are viewable from YouTube itself at the time. See streamlink/streamlink#2936 for more details.
• Downloader logs go to the logs/ folder and there is no good way to surface if something abnormal has happened.

• Title filters?

It is not known what kind of rate limiting or detection YouTube has on this kind of access.
