PyVideo Scraper

Building on the Gist of Miguel Grinberg and merging with my own fork of Nick Facano's pytube I've hacked this together to scan pyvideo.org pages and download the video content from youtube.

To get going grab my fork of pytube (it's been slightly modified to have a non-verbose mode) run python setup.py install in the pytube directory and then all you have to do is download this repo - it doesn't need to be installed...

Known Bugs

  • When running on a long list of videos (SciPy 2014 - 57 Videos for example) the script crashes out with 429 Error: Too many requests... will look into this soon.

ToDo

  • Fix this repo with proper tests and documentation.
  • Generalise the scirpt to also 'search' youtube and download the results.
