## Installation

|
|
|
## Prerequisites
|
|
|
|
You need at least 512MB RAM to run the script.
|
|
Importation can be launched directly from a PeerTube server (in this case you already have dependencies installed :+1:) or from a separate server, even a dekstop PC.
|
|
|
|
### Dependencies
|
|
|
|
* [PeerTube dependencies](dependencies.md)
|
|
|
|
### Installation
|
|
|
|
Clone the PeerTube repo to get the latest version:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
git clone https://github.com/Chocobozzz/PeerTube.git
|
|
CLONE="$(pwd)/PeerTube"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Run ``yarn install``
|
|
```
|
|
cd ${CLONE}
|
|
yarn install
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Build server tools:
|
|
```
|
|
cd ${CLONE}
|
|
npm run build:server
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Usage
|
|
|
|
You are now ready to run the script :
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
cd ${CLONE}
|
|
node dist/server/tools/import-video.js -u "PEERTUBE_URL" -U "PEERTUBE_USER" --password "PEERTUBE_PASSWORD" -t "TARGET_URL"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
* PEERTUBE_URL : the full URL of your PeerTube server where you want to import, eg: https://peertube.cpy.re/
|
|
* PEERTUBE_USER : your PeerTube account where videos will be uploaded
|
|
* PEERTUBE_PASSWORD : password of your PeerTube account
|
|
* TARGET_URL : the target url you want to import. Examples:
|
|
* YouTube:
|
|
* Channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/ChannelId
|
|
* User https://www.youtube.com/c/UserName or https://www.youtube.com/user/UserName
|
|
* Video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=blabla
|
|
* Vimeo: https://vimeo.com/xxxxxx
|
|
* Dailymotion: https://www.dailymotion.com/xxxxx
|
|
|
|
The script will get all public videos from Youtube, download them and upload to PeerTube.
|
|
Already downloaded videos will not be uploaded twice, so you can run and re-run the script in case of crash, disconnection...
