CircleCI:

A cross-platform Electron.NET frontend for youtube-dl.

See the main page for youtube-dl for more information.

Theoretically, any Electron and .NET Core supported platform.

NOTE: All platforms require the appropriate youtube-dl binary in PATH or placed alongside the Yodel binary.

• .NET Core Runtime 2.x (or compatible .NET Framework)

• .NET Core Runtime 2.x
• GTK2
• libxss
• gconf

• Currently untested

• Allow multiple downloads at once, each download in its own card panel

• Implement settings profiles
• Allow using different settings profiles for different downloads
• Allow saving settings profile as default

• Refactor with Angular (relies on Electron.NET update allowing application-level node packages)

All contributions are welcome. Electron.NET is still a very new framework and I'm new to Electron in general, so I'm sure I haven't written idiomatic Electron code. Any style corrections are welcome.

Development environment consists of:

• Visual Studio 2017 / Visual Studio Code
• NodeJS 8.6.x
• .NET Core 2.x

Use Visual Studio or the following .NET Core CLI commands.

dotnet restore
dotnet electronize start

This will run the application in debug mode.

dotnet electronize build <platform>

This will build and package the application for the specified platform.
Platform is optional and will default to the currently running system.
Platform options are win, osx, or linux.

NOTE: Building for the macOS platform does not currently work on Windows. Use Linux or macOS itself.

Debug the UI itself using Electron's built-in debugging tools. These can be opened with Ctrl+Shift+I while running the application in debug mode.

Debug the .NET code by attaching the debugger to the Yodel.exe (or similarly named) process.
