you2peer

Python script that mirrors YouTube Channels or playlist on a PeerTube instance

Requirements

youtube-dl (both on machine running this script, and on peertube host)
python3 requests
cURL (to retrieve credentials first time)
jq

Installation

git clone https://forge.chapril.org/UncleSamulus/you2peer.git
cd you2peer

Usage

Copy config file sample

cp config.json.sample config.json

Get PeerTube config: (Populate config.json with json response values..)

# Get client tokens
curl https://peertube.example.com/api/v1/oauth-clients/local

# Get user token
curl -X POST \
 -d "client_id=zip6rwzni6hplvtw3dp9t02hnkfugpzu&client_secret=AjWiOapPltI6EnsWQwlFarRtLh4u8tDt&grant_type=password&response_type=code&username=your_user&password=your_password" \
  https://peertube.example.com/api/v1/users/token

First create target channels and playlists (using an admin account) and then Get channels id, and playlists id using api in navigator (to be added in config.json):

Then you can run the script on a regular basis (each day for instance), the previously added vidéos are specified in ./data/channel.playlist.previous.json, to not to uploady vidéo again.

python3 ./src/mirror.py

If you run the script on another machine, make sure to keep the *.previous.json file in ./data, to upload only the new videos.

Automatization

Instead of running this script regularly, you could setup a systemd timer to launch the script daily (for instance).

cp ./dist/you2peer.service /etc/systemd/system/you2peer.service
cp ./dist/you2peer.timer /etc/systemd/system/you2peer.timer

sudo systemctl daemon-reload
sudo systemctl enable --now you2peer.timer
