# How To Use Tube-DL

Download a pre-built installer from the [Releases](https://github.com/jasonhinkle/Tube-DL/releases) page.

3. Select whether you want the video file or audio only.
4. Click the Download button

# Building From Source

*The project is written in Javascript running in [node](https://nodejs.org/) and packaged for the desktop using [Electron](http://electron.atom.io/). Ensure that Node and NPM are installed and configured on the development machine.*

#### Install the required electron builder tools:

*I recommend installing the electron libraries globally, however installing them locally is fine.*

```
npm install electron-prebuilt -g
npm install electron-packager -g
```

Optionally to create OSX and Win32 installers:
```
npm install electron-osx-sign -g
npm install electron-builder -g
```

#### Install the application's dependencies:

```
cd "Tube DL"
npm install
```

#### Run Tube DL in debug/test mode:

```
npm start
```

#### Build a stand-alone executable

*Use osx or win build depending on your platform.*

```
npm run build:osx
npm run build:win
```
