youtubeDl.download(videoUrl) .then((stream) => { const mp4Stream = stream.pipe(fs.createWriteStream(`video.${quality}.mp4`)); res.set("Content-Disposition", `attachment; filename="video.${quality}.mp4"`); res.set("Content-Type", "video/mp4"); mp4Stream.pipe(res); }) .catch((err) => { console.error(err); res.status(500).send('Error downloading video'); }); });
const youtubeDl = new YouTube({ format: `best[${quality}]`, });
app.get('/download', (req, res) => { const videoUrl = req.query.url; const quality = req.query.quality;
// Validate input
app.listen(3000, () => { console.log('Server started on port 3000'); }); This example demonstrates a basic video download endpoint using youtube-dl and Node.js. Note that you'll need to modify and extend this code to fit your specific requirements.
const express = require('express'); const app = express(); const fs = require('fs'); const { YouTube } = require('youtube-dl');
