This is a Python 3 Script that uses Scrapy & Youtube-DL to download the the Free American Sign Language 1, 2, & 3 Courses at http://startasl.com.
The contents for each Class and Unit are saved into separate
folders(ASL_1/Unit_1/, ASL_2/Workbook.pdf, etc.). Each Unit's text is saved
as a Markdown file(lesson.md) and the videos are sorted into lesson,
phrases, & vocab folders. The filenames for the lesson & phrases videos
are prefixed with a number so that you can play them in the same order as the
website(the vocab videos on the website are always in alphabetical order).
You need Python 3 to run this script:
# Grab the Code
git clone http://github.com/prikhi/Start-ASL-Downloader startASL
cd startASL
# Setup & Activate a Virtual Environment
python -m venv Env
source Env/bin/activate
