After the download, you have to make one include require_once('vendor/autoload.php');. After that you have to import the classes with use statements.

Example:
If you use only one package a project is not needed. But if you use more then one package, without a project it is not possible to import the classes with use statements.

In general, it is recommended to use always a project to download your libraries. In an application normally there is more than one library needed.
Some PHP packages are not free to download and because of that hosted in private repositories. In this case some credentials are needed to access such packages. Please use the auth.json textarea to insert credentials, if a package is coming from a private repository. You can look here for more information.

  • Some hosting areas are not accessible by a terminal or SSH. Then it is not possible to use Composer.
  • To use Composer is sometimes complicated. Especially for beginners.
  • Composer needs much resources. Sometimes they are not available on a simple webspace.
  • If you are using private repositories you don't need to share your credentials. You can set up everything on our site and then you provide a simple download link to your team member.
  • Simplify your Composer build process. Use our own command line tool to download the vendor folder as binary. This makes your build process faster and you don't need to expose your credentials for private repositories.

Informations about the package contao-youtube-dl-bundle

YouTube Download for Contao

Download YouTube videos directly to the file system, using youtube-dl.

Requirements

A youtube-dl or yt-dlp executable needs to be available. If the binary is located somewhere unusual, you can configure the location via the respective config parameter used by the youtube-dl-bundle:

ffmpeg is also recommended so that youtube-dl can merge downloaded audio and video into one file, because YouTube usually provides audio and video separately for most high-quality formats. If an ffmpeg or avconv command is not available in your environment and an executable can also not be found in any common location, you can provide the location of the binary with the following config:

Configuration

You can customize the available maximum video height options:

Usage

The extension adds a new icon button (a red play button with a downward-pointing green arrow) to every folder in the file system.

  1. Click the button at the folder to which you want to download the video.
  2. Provide the video ID.
  3. Optionally choose a maximum video height to download.
  4. Click "Import" and wait for the video to download.

That's all!

Permissions

The extension adds a file operation permission "Import YouTube videos" in the "Filemounts" area of the user and user group settings.

Please note

The downloader is limited to whatever the video creator uploaded and by what YouTube provides. The options you selected may possibly be discarded if no matching file could be found.

Also, this extension aims to have youtube-dl create an mp4 rather than an mkv container because mp4 has broader support. If this is causing you any problems, feel free to create an issue on GitHub so that we can find a solution that works well for everyone.
