subfil

Command-line app for downloading subtitles

Build Status

CLI

$ npm install -g subfil
$ subfil "spiderman.avi" --language pt --destination subtitles.srt
$ subfil -r ~/Videos

Info

subfil uses the SubDB API to download subtitles. All API calls require a unique hash of the video for which subtitles are required. Refer to the API Documentation to see how the hash is generated.

API

$ npm install --save subfil
// List available languages for hash
subfil.getLanguages(hash, callback);

A filename can also be provided instead of the hash. The callback gets two arguments (err, languages) where languages is an array of the available languages.

// Download subtitles for hash
subfil.download(hash[, options], callback);

A filename or a directory can also be provided instead of the hash. Multiple hashes, filenames or directories can also be provided.

The options object contains the following properties:

  • language - The language in which the subtitles must be downloaded. It defaults to en.
  • destination - The destination to which the subtitles must be downloaded. It defaults to a file in tmp directory for hash and an srt file in the same folder for a filename.
  • recursive - Whether to expand directories or not. It defaults to false. In case of a non-recursive download, directories give a status of INVALID_VIDEO_FILE.

Note: The destination parameter currently only works for a single hash or filename.

The callback gets four arguments (err, status, destination, file) where status is the result from the SubDB API, destination is the filename to which the subtitles are downloaded and file is the filename or hash which was used to download a particular subtitle. An array is returned for the three if multiple subtitles are downloaded.
