yt-dlp-ejs

Caution

This is currently in development

External JavaScript for yt-dlp supporting many runtimes

Manual Installation

In the yt-dlp repository, install the python package, either directly or from URL:

pip install git+https://github.com/yt-dlp/ejs@main

Development

While this project does pin its dependencies, it does not use lockfiles or enforce a particular package manager. You may install dependencies using any compatible package manager. If you notice differences between different runtimes' builds please open an issue here.

Build

To build the Python package you need a PEP518 compatible builder. The build hook will automatically invoke deno, bun or node as required.

Alternatively, to only build the JavaScript files you can run the bundle script manually:

# Deno:
deno install
deno task bundle

# Bun:
bun install
bun run bundle

# Node:
npm install
npm run bundle

Tests

First, make sure the project's dependencies are installed and download the player JS files:

# Deno:
deno install
deno run src/yt/solver/test/download.ts

# Bun:
bun install
bun run src/yt/solver/test/download.ts

# Node:
npm install
npm run src/yt/solver/test/download.ts

Then the tests can be run:

# Deno
deno test

# Bun
bun test

# Node
node --test
