vimeo-scraper

Web scraper made to retrieve videos from Vimeo -v.0.9

Implemented functions:

  • creates a destination folder named 'videos' for the downloaded videos (goes up one directory and create it, i.e '../videos/')

  • download a single video -- public or private

  • download a whole playlist (showcase) -- public or private

Libraries used:

scrapy
ffmpeg
ffmpy
requests
requests_toolbelt
tqdm
multiple ffmpeg codecs

How to use:

Make sure you have Python3 (tested with 3.7.3 on Ubuntu) and the libraries used in the program, then in the terminal type:

python3 vimeo_scraper.py url_of_the_video

If the video or playlist is password protected, just put the password after the URL:

python3 vimeo_scraper.py url_of_the_video password

TODO:

  • Handle disk space use
  • Show download progress
  • Add pause/stop functions
  • Multiplatform / OS / python versions tests
