TermTube

A command line YouTube subscription player. It consists of the subscript feed and lets you create a playlist of the videos you want to watch. A playlist is automatically created of all videos that has been uploaded since the last video you watched.

Installation

$ npm i -g termtube

Setup

For TermTube to work a subscription file needs to be imported. The file is exported from https://www.youtube.com/subscription_manager by pressing "Export subscriptions" at the bottom.

$ termtube set -s /path/to/subscription_manager.xml

If a video player is not set, TermTube will try to use mpv.
