Configuration File
|
|
==================
|
|
|
|
ytdl-sub is configured using a ``config.yaml`` file.
|
|
|
|
The ``config.yaml`` is made up of two sections:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: yaml
|
|
|
|
configuration:
|
|
presets:
|
|
|
|
You can jump to any section and subsection of the config using the navigation section to
|
|
the left.
|
|
|
|
Note for Windows users, paths can be represented with ``C:/forward/slashes/like/linux``.
|
|
If you wish to represent paths like Windows, you will need to
|
|
``C:\\double\\bashslash\\paths`` in order to escape the backslash character.
|
|
|
|
|
|
configuration
|
|
-------------
|
|
|
|
The ``configuration`` section contains app-wide configs applied to all presets and
|
|
subscriptions.
|
|
|
|
.. autoclass:: ytdl_sub.config.config_validator.ConfigOptions()
|
|
:members:
|
|
:member-order: bysource
|
|
:exclude-members: subscription_value, persist_logs, experimental
|
|
|
|
persist_logs
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
Within ``configuration``, define whether logs from subscription downloads should be
|
|
persisted.
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: yaml
|
|
|
|
configuration:
|
|
persist_logs:
|
|
logs_directory: "/path/to/log/directory"
|
|
|
|
Log files are stored as
|
|
``YYYY-mm-dd-HHMMSS.subscription_name.(success|error).log``.
|
|
|
|
.. autoclass:: ytdl_sub.config.config_validator.PersistLogsValidator()
|
|
:members:
|
|
:member-order: bysource
|
|
|
|
|
|
presets
|
|
-------
|
|
|
|
Each key under ``presets:`` defines a `formula` for how to format downloaded media and
|
|
metadata. The key is the name of the preset and the value is a mapping that defines the
|
|
preset.
|
|
|
|
.. note::
|
|
|
|
The ``presets:`` key at the top of the configuration file contains multiple
|
|
user-defined presets, but *each preset* itself may include a ``presets:`` key that
|
|
defines *that preset's* base presets. For example:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: yaml
|
|
|
|
presets:
|
|
Foo Preset:
|
|
presets:
|
|
- "Jellyfin TV Show by Date"
|
|
|
|
presets
|
|
~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
Presets support inheritance by defining a parent preset:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: yaml
|
|
|
|
presets:
|
|
custom_preset:
|
|
...
|
|
parent_preset:
|
|
...
|
|
child_preset:
|
|
preset: "parent_preset"
|
|
|
|
In the example above, ``child_preset`` inherits all fields defined in ``parent_preset``.
|
|
It is advantageous to use parent presets where possible to reduce duplicate yaml
|
|
definitions.
|
|
|
|
Presets also support inheritance from multiple presets:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: yaml
|
|
|
|
child_preset:
|
|
preset:
|
|
- "custom_preset"
|
|
- "parent_preset"
|
|
|
|
In this example, ``child_preset`` will inherit all fields from ``custom_preset`` and
|
|
``parent_preset`` in that order. The bottom-most preset has the highest priority. More
|
|
specifically, presets are merged using `mergedeep`_ via `a TYPESAFE_ADDITIVE merge`_,
|
|
which means:
|
|
|
|
- if two conflicting keys arent lists or mappings, overwrite the higher priority one
|
|
- otherwise, combine then re-evaluate
|
|
|
|
If you are only inheriting from one preset, the syntax ``preset: "parent_preset"`` is
|
|
valid YAML. Inheriting from multiple presets require use of a list.
