Crate rafy [−] [src]

rafy is a simple-to-use library for downloading YouTube content and retrieving metadata.

About

rafy takes the YouTube URL of the video and parses it. It returns fields like title, author, likes/dislikes and other information about the video. It can also be used to download video and audio streams with selectable quality.

Quick Example

You need to add the line below in [dependencies] section in your Cargo.toml

rafy = "0.1"

The following example shows how simple it is to use rafy to gather information about YouTube videos.

extern crate rafy;
use rafy::Rafy;

fn main() {
    let content = Rafy::new("https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4I_NYya-WWg");
    println!("{}", content.videoid);
    println!("{}", content.title);
    println!("{}", content.author);
    println!("{}", content.likes);

    let streams = content.streams;
    for stream in streams {
       println!("{}", stream.extension);
       println!("{}", stream.url);
    }
}

You can also download YouTube videos by calling method download() on a Stream struct.

extern crate rafy;
use rafy::Rafy;

fn main() {
    let content = Rafy::new("https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qOOcy2-tmbk");
    let streams = content.streams;
    streams[0].download();
}
