pytube VS Eel

Then in the virtual environment pip install pytube, this is the documentation if you are interested.

This is a known issue, likely started by something on YouTube's end.

Pytube was used for YouTube video download logic.

$ python3 Python 3.10.6 (main, Nov 14 2022, 16:10:14) [GCC 11.3.0] on linux Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information. >>> from pytube import Search >>> s = Search('once in a lifetime talking heads'); >>> print('https://youtu.be/%s' % s.results[0].video_id) Unexpected renderer encountered. Renderer name: dict_keys(['reelShelfRenderer']) Search term: once in a lifetime talking heads Please open an issue at https://github.com/pytube/pytube/issues and provide this log output. https://youtu.be/5IsSpAOD6K8

If a transcript doesn’t exist, download the audio of the video as an mp3 file with Pytube and use our first ML model, OpenAI Whisper to transcribe

After all the parsing is done, we need to download videos from returned URLs using pytube. Here we only download audio with filter(only_audio=True) option as this is what we only need for transcript and defining output_path to create videos/ path with filename that was done at the parsing stage, i.e absolute filename.

pip install git+https://github.com/openai/whisper.git pip install git+https://github.com/pytube/pytube.git pip install pandas

I gave up a long time ago attempting to write GUIs in pure python. I've come back to them periodically to see if the landscape has changed, but I'm always disappointed.

My current go-to python GUI solution is to use the Eel library. It renders GUIs in a web-browser like window with HTMl/CSS/JS.It lets you expose your python functions to JavaScript, so data can be easily transferred back and forth between the python and the JavaScript. And since it's just web-dev, it's pretty easy to make things look and feel good enough. Any other web-dev libraries like bootstrap and jquery can be used. It works pretty well for writing GUIs that put data analysis tools in front of my colleagues.

Eel was used to implement the app and communication with the web interface.

I am calling a function from Python using eel and taking the return value. Python functions are asynchronous with JavaScript by nature. This code is combined with other variables to determine if the form can continue. allFilled() is called everytime the form field changes.

In the past, I've used QT4 and QT Designer. It was okay. It was a small mountain to climb for myself then - but certainly doable. However, there was a lot of generated code that wasn't the most concise thing. Today, I discovered Eel. Since I used QT4 in the past, I've done some web dev. Certainly, not proficient there. But Eel wasn't as big of a hurdle. In fact, it took me a fraction of the time because it is much like creating a basic website. Where there's an abundance of tutorials and tips out there for everything imaginable. Instead of downloading and adding a font, clicking through a bunch of dialogs. I just linked a Google font and updated the CSS. Stuff like that.

If you don't want a web-app, you can still use JS for GUI, using something like python-eel https://github.com/python-eel/Eel
