WARNING: this build is broken, use 0.4.0.post1 instead.

Features

  • Backend management commands. It is now possible to install backends using dl-plus itself. Backends are installed into the dl-plus config directory, therefore, they are not visible to/do not interfere with other packages installed into the same Python environment.
    • dl-plus --cmd backend install [NAME [VERSION]] installs the backend package into the dl-plus config directory.
    • dl-plus --cmd backend info prints information about the configured backend.
  • A new optional [backend-options] config section. The section has exactly the same format as the youtube-dl config (one can think of it as the youtube-dl config embedded into the dl-plus one). If this section is present, even if it is empty, it overrides youtube-dl own config(s) (--ignore-config is used internally).
  • youtube-dl–compatible mode. When dl-plus is run as youtube-dl (e.g., via a symlink), it disables all additional command line options. The config file is still processed.

Improvements

  • -U/--update is now handled by dl-plus itself rather than passing it to the underlying backend. For now, it says that this feature is not yet implemented (and it is not).
