Installation & usage

No matter how you choose to run the app, you will first need to get an OpenAI API-Key. This is very straightforward and free. Have a look at their instructions to get started.

build & run with Docker (or docker-compose)

1. make sure to provide an OpenAI API key (l. 43 in docker-compose.yml)
2. adjust the path to save the summaries (l. 39 in docker-compose.yml)
3. execute the following command:

# pull from docker hub
docker-compose up -d
# or build locally
docker-compose up --build -d

if you are only interested in summaries

# pull from Docker Hub
docker pull sudoleg/yotube-gpt:latest
# or build locally
docker build --tag=sudoleg/yotube-gpt:latest .
docker run -d -p 8501:8501 \
    -v $(pwd):/app/responses \
    -e OPENAI_API_KEY=<your-openai-api-key> \
    --name youtube-ai sudoleg/yotube-gpt:latest

ℹ️ For the best user-experience, you need to be in Tier 1 usage tier, which requires a one-time payment of 5$. However it's worth it, since then, you'll have access to all models and higher rate limits.
