Yamabiko - A yt-dlp comment viewer

General info

Yamabiko turns the comments from the JSON file, downloaded with yt-dlp into a viewable, human-readable HTML page. The downloaded video file can also be shown on the page.

Requirements

How to use

Download the Youtube video with the comments file (JSON)

yt-dlp --write-comments https://youtubeVideo.url

After that run Yamabiko with Python and declare the JSON file

for ease of use drag and drop the JSON file into the terminal when you have to enter the name (◠‿◠✿)

python3 yamabiko.py -i filename.json

or if you want to have the video on the page center

python3 yamabiko.py -i filename.json -v filename.json

After you should have a HTML file called 'index.html'

Open it and HEYYYヽ(o＾▽＾o)ノ it's working (hopefully).

NOTICE: When drag and dropping the JSON and video file the whole path gets entered, meaning you can move the index.html around.

Commits

Help is very much appreciated since I don't really want to work on this too much.

Just create an Issue, fork it send a PR and I'll check it or even change everything completely!

I don't really care that much ┐(︶▽︶)┌
