ynkr

---

It's a youtube audio grabber. Easy to setup, private via VPNs (if you want it to)..

Setup/Installation

Preperations

• Youtube playlists marked at least as not listed
• Docker/-compose

  Note

  only if you want to download more private..

  • get gluetun up and running

You need (you technically don't need a gluetun config, or any other VPN, but i would highly recommend it for security and privacy reasons) a gluetun configuration which works for you. I have a Cyberghost subscription, where i can then get the login data for gluetun, so that the main connections come from a differnt country/different public IP.

services:
  ynkr:
    image: git.k4li.de/docker/ynkr:latest
    environment:
      - PUID=1000        # Replace with your actual UID (your own id)
      - PGID=1000         # Replace with your actual GID (the docker group)
    volumes:
      - ./downloads:/downloads # this is the raw music/download folder -> playlists same as in source
      - ./music:/music # this is the processed music folder - would highly recommend setting up a jellyfin instance/container, which points to this exact folder path
      - ./music_imports.db:/app/music_imports.db:rw # <- in this database file, we will store and keep track of the processed data, so that we dont need to generate too much ai requests.
      - ./archives:/archives # <- for keeping track of yt-dlp's already downloaded tracks
      - ./playlists:/app/playlists:ro # <- to let yt-dlp know what to download
    restart: unless-stopped
    network_mode: service:proxy # <-- here you acctually tell the docker socket, to use gluetun network for the ynkr app!!
    depends_on:
      - proxy

  proxy:
    image: docker.io/qmcgaw/gluetun:latest
    container_name: proxy
    cap_add:
      - NET_ADMIN
    devices:
      - /dev/net/tun:/dev/net/tun
    environment:
      - VPN_SERVICE_PROVIDER=<provider>
      - OPENVPN_USER=<user>
      - OPENVPN_PASSWORD=<password>
      - TZ=Europe/Berlin
      # - SERVER_COUNTRIES=Spain
    volumes:
      - ./gluetun:/gluetun # <-- you have to put in your certificates in there!!

You then have to make sure the directories and files exist

mkdir archives music downloads
touch playlists music_imports.db

Fill in the playlists file like this..

<name> = <youtube-playlist-url>

# like this..
example = https://music.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLzXB9N9Lp6mXs8CHGAyMndCQdHWZS5aPR&si=3EJP2wEwB5oy63UF

The script checks for the = limiter charakter, fill in as much playlists as you like. It will auto create folders with the name and download the audiofiles, thumnails and other meta data into the mapped folder via <folder>:/downloads
