Package Exports

yt-dlp-static
yt-dlp-static/index.js

This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (yt-dlp-static) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

Readme

yt-dlp-static

Static yt-dlp binaries for macOS, Linux, Windows.

Supports macOS (64-bit and arm64), Linux (32 and 64-bit, armhf, arm64), Windows (32 and 64-bit). The yt-dlp version currently used is [latest version].

npm version minimum Node.js version

Note: The version of yt-dlp-static follows SemVer. When releasing new versions, we do not consider breaking changes in yt-dlp itself, but only the JS interface. For example, yt-dlp-static@1.0.0 might download yt-dlp [next version]. To prevent an yt-dlp-static upgrade downloading backwards-incompatible yt-dlp versions, use a strict version range for it or use a lockfile.

Installation

$ npm install yt-dlp-static

Electron & other cross-platform packaging tools

Because yt-dlp-static will download a binary specific to the OS/platform, you need to purge node_modules before (re-)packaging your app for a different OS/platform.

Example Usage

Returns the path of a statically linked yt-dlp binary on the local filesystem.

const ytdlp = require("yt-dlp-static");
console.log(ytdlp);
