#youtube-to-gif

Creates an animated GIF from a YouTube URL.

##Prerequisites

You will need ffmpeg to use this package. Assuming you are using OS X, ffmpeg can be installed very easily with Brew.

```bash
brew install ffmpeg
```

##Installation

```bash
npm install youtube-to-gif -g
```

##Usage

This following command will create an animated GIF from a Youtube Video of Neo fighting Morpheus in the film: The Matrix.

```bash
youtube-to-gif -u https://www.youtube.com/watch\?v\=NqxSgp385N0 -b 30 -d 5
```

The -b flag specifies the seconds at which to begin converting the video file. The -d flag specifies the duration of clip you want to convert to an animated GIF. After typing the above command, your terminal output should look something like this:
