Glad you like it! :)
I bet when Cheetahs race and one of them cheats, the other one goes "Man, you're such a Cheetah!" and they laugh & eat a zebra or whatever.

0.10.0 is released and published:

Quote
yaydl 0.10.0, on the road to 1.0.0:
* New feature: Playlist support for handlers! Might fix issues like #1.
* New site: xHamster. (Uses the new playlist support. Yay!)
* The WebDriver port can be set as an environment variable now to save some typing.
* The progress bar is now cleared after a download is finished.
* cargo will now strip the resulting binary when compiling in release mode.

8)

For those following the development: This does mean that yaydl can now handle sites that use .m3u8 playlists with .ts segments! :)

There will be a major refactoring, killing all unsafe code, some time later. I finally got a contributor! :)

YouTube has decided to break its old APIs. yaydl 0.13.0 uses Invidious as a YouTube proxy now. That should fix most issues with YouTube, sans playlist support.

0.15.0 adds a way to define your own Invidious instance: Set YAYDL_INVIDIOUS_INSTANCE to https://whatever and it will be used.

I have thought about parallelized downloads. The problem is that

  1. the package I use for accessing URLs - ureq - is deliberately kept small, and it probably won't work well. I could probably move back to reqwest, increasing the technical dependency debt by quite a few fjerghillion bytes, but I don't think I would like that ..., and
  2. I'm not sure how reliable my selfmade progress display (using a non-selfmade progress bar renderer, but that's not the point  :P ) would be with parallel downloads.

Ok, the problems are that...
So, I'm aware of the bottleneck "single-connection downloads", but fixing that is not easy if I want to keep yaydl lean and mean.  ;)

Major rework: 0.18.0 (and 0.18.1). Fixed YouTube, improved the smoothness of adding new handlers (introducing a yaydl-specific HTTP(S) agent that adds proxy detection automatically), large changeset, small actual changes, basically.
