ClipBuild

Self-hosted web app to fetch metadata and download video (MP4) or audio (MP3) from 1000+ sites via yt-dlp. Paste one or many URLs, pick quality, download locally.

Features

• Single video — paste multiple links; dedupe; thumbnails (incl. Bilibili CDN proxy when needed)
• Profile / channel scan — flat playlist for TikTok, YouTube, Instagram, Bilibili space (space.bilibili.com/…), Douyin, etc. (Facebook profile Reels tab is not supported by yt-dlp — use per-reel facebook.com/reel/… links in single-video mode)
• MP4 or MP3, optional resolution chips when the source exposes formats
• Cookies — by default, on a normal desktop (not Docker), yt-dlp uses --cookies-from-browser (Chrome on Windows, Safari on macOS, Firefox on Linux) so logged-in sessions apply without exporting cookies.txt. Override with env vars below

Quick start

brew install yt-dlp ffmpeg    # or: apt install ffmpeg && pip install yt-dlp
git clone https://github.com/*****/clipbuild.git
cd clipbuild
chmod +x clipbuild.sh   # Unix only, if needed
./clipbuild.sh

Open http://localhost:8899 (or set PORT).
(Đổi URL clone nếu bạn đặt tên repo khác trên GitHub.)

Docker

docker build -t clipbuild . && docker run -p 8899:8899 clipbuild

Inside Docker there is no local browser profile; set YTDLP_COOKIES_FILE to a Netscape cookies file if a site requires login.

Environment (optional)

Variable	Meaning
PORT	HTTP port (default 8899)
HOST	Bind address (default 127.0.0.1)
YTDLP_COOKIES_FILE	Path to cookies file (takes priority over browser)
YTDLP_COOKIES_FROM_BROWSER	e.g. chrome, edge, firefox — passed to yt-dlp
YTDLP_BROWSER	Default browser for auto cookie mode (chrome / safari / firefox by OS)
YTDLP_SKIP_BROWSER_COOKIES	1 — do not add --cookies-from-browser
DOWNLOAD_TIMEOUT	Download job timeout (seconds)
PROFILE_SCAN_TIMEOUT	Profile scan timeout (seconds)

Usage
