Merge features from dev to master
Features:
-
--destination
flag to specify the location to save videos to. Closes #1 (closed). -
--history
flag to specify a file where to print/read episodes URLs from/to so you can finally delete watched lectures without having to worry they might re-download. -
--version
flag to print the program version and exit. - Ignore empty lines in link file.
- Strip special characters such as
? < > : * | " ^
from filenames as they can cause issues on NTFS.
Changes:
- Moved date further to the front when printing available/selected lecture episodes.
- Collect all episode links first and then start the download so you no longer have to wait for a download to finish in order to select episodes of the next lecture if you pass multiple links.
- Moved the code that creates folders so no folders are created when you just want to print the source links of lecture episodes with
--print-src
. - Replaced occurrences of
/
withos.sep
to become more OS agnostic. - Check if the scraper is being run directly to allow for use as library.
- and finally some general code clean up.
