No CDN, no fonts, no analytics. CSP enforced. - **Mobile-friendly** — Responsive layout with bottom tabs on small screens. ## Quickstart ```bash docker compose up ``` Open [http://localhost:8080](http://localhost:8080) and paste a URL. Downloads are saved to `./downloads/`. ## Docker Volumes | Mount | Purpose | Persists | |-------|---------|----------| | `/downloads` | Downloaded media files | ✅ Bind mount recommended | | `/data` | SQLite database, session cookies, error logs | ✅ Named volume recommended | | `/themes` | Custom theme CSS overrides (optional) | Read-only bind mount | | `/app/config.yaml` | YAML config file (optional) | Read-only bind mount | **Important:** The `/data` volume contains the database (download history, admin state, error logs) and session cookie files. Use a named volume or bind mount to persist across container restarts. ## Configuration All settings have sensible defaults — zero config required. Override via environment variables or mount a `config.yaml`: ### Core Settings | Variable | Default | Description | |----------|---------|-------------| | `MEDIARIP__SERVER__PORT` | `8000` | Internal server port | | `MEDIARIP__SERVER__LOG_LEVEL` | `info` | Log level (`debug`, `info`, `warning`, `error`) | | `MEDIARIP__DOWNLOADS__MAX_CONCURRENT` | `3` | Maximum parallel downloads | | `MEDIARIP__SESSION__MODE` | `isolated` | `isolated`, `shared`, or `open` | | `MEDIARIP__SESSION__TIMEOUT_HOURS` | `72` | Session cookie lifetime (hours) | ### Admin Panel | Variable | Default | Description | |----------|---------|-------------| | `MEDIARIP__ADMIN__ENABLED` | `true` | Enable admin panel | | `MEDIARIP__ADMIN__USERNAME` | `admin` | Admin username | | `MEDIARIP__ADMIN__PASSWORD_HASH` | _(empty)_ | Bcrypt hash of admin password | ### Auto-Purge | Variable | Default | Description | |----------|---------|-------------| | `MEDIARIP__PURGE__ENABLED` | `true` | Enable automatic cleanup of old downloads | | `MEDIARIP__PURGE__MAX_AGE_MINUTES` | `1440` | Delete completed downloads older than this (minutes) | | `MEDIARIP__PURGE__CRON` | `* * * * *` | Purge check schedule (cron syntax) | | `MEDIARIP__PURGE__PRIVACY_MODE` | `false` | Aggressive cleanup — removes downloads + logs on schedule | | `MEDIARIP__PURGE__PRIVACY_RETENTION_MINUTES` | `1440` | Retention period when privacy mode is enabled | ### UI Customization | Variable | Default | Description | |----------|---------|-------------| | `MEDIARIP__UI__DEFAULT_THEME` | `dark` | Default theme (`dark`, `light`, `cyberpunk`, or custom) | | `MEDIARIP__UI__WELCOME_MESSAGE` | _(built-in)_ | Header subtitle text shown to users | ### yt-dlp Tuning | Variable | Default | Description | |----------|---------|-------------| | `MEDIARIP__YTDLP__EXTRACTOR_ARGS` | `{}` | JSON object of yt-dlp extractor args (see below) | Use `extractor_args` to tune YouTube player client selection or pass arguments to any yt-dlp extractor: ```yaml # config.yaml ytdlp: extractor_args: youtube: player_client: ["web_safari", "android_vr"] ``` Or via environment variable: ```bash MEDIARIP__YTDLP__EXTRACTOR_ARGS='{"youtube": {"player_client": ["web_safari"]}}' ``` > **Note:** Internal paths (`SERVER__DB_PATH`, `SERVER__DATA_DIR`, `DOWNLOADS__OUTPUT_DIR`) are pre-configured in the Docker image. Only override these if you change the volume mount points. ### Session Modes - **isolated** (default): Each browser session has its own private queue. - **shared**: All sessions see all downloads. Good for household/team use. - **open**: No session tracking at all. ### Admin Panel The admin panel is enabled by default. On first run, you'll be prompted to set a password in the browser. Or pre-configure via environment: ```yaml # docker-compose.yml environment section MEDIARIP__ADMIN__ENABLED: "true" MEDIARIP__ADMIN__USERNAME: "admin" MEDIARIP__ADMIN__PASSWORD_HASH: "$2b$12$..." # see below ``` Generate a bcrypt password hash: ```bash docker run --rm python:3.12-slim python -c \ "import bcrypt; print(bcrypt.hashpw(b'YOUR_PASSWORD', bcrypt.gensalt()).decode())" ``` Admin state (login, settings changes) persists in the SQLite database at `/data/mediarip.db`. ## Custom Themes 1. Create a folder in your themes volume: `./themes/my-theme/` 2. Add `metadata.json`: ```json { "name": "My Theme", "author": "You", "description": "A cool theme" } ``` 3. Add `theme.css` with CSS variable overrides: ```css [data-theme="my-theme"] { --color-bg: #1a1a2e; --color-accent: #e94560; /* See base.css for all 50+ tokens */ } ``` 4. Restart the container. Your theme appears in the picker. See the built-in themes in `frontend/src/themes/` for fully commented examples. ## Secure Deployment For production with TLS, use the included Caddy reverse proxy: ```bash cp docker-compose.example.yml docker-compose.yml cp .env.example .env # Edit .env with your domain and admin password hash docker compose up -d ``` Caddy automatically provisions Let's Encrypt TLS certificates for your domain. ## Development ### Backend ```bash cd backend python -m venv .venv .venv/bin/pip install -r requirements.txt .venv/bin/pip install pytest pytest-asyncio pytest-anyio httpx ruff .venv/bin/python -m pytest tests/ -v -m "not integration" ``` ### Frontend ```bash cd frontend npm install npm run dev # Dev server with hot reload npx vitest run # Run tests npm run build # Production build ``` ## API | Endpoint | Method | Description | |----------|--------|-------------| | `/api/health` | GET | Health check with version + uptime | | `/api/config/public` | GET | Public configuration | | `/api/downloads` | GET | List downloads for current session | | `/api/downloads` | POST | Start a new download | | `/api/downloads/{id}` | DELETE | Cancel/remove a download | | `/api/formats` | GET | Extract available formats for a URL | | `/api/events` | GET | SSE stream for real-time progress | | `/api/cookies` | POST | Upload cookies.txt for authenticated downloads | | `/api/cookies` | DELETE | Remove cookies.txt for current session | | `/api/themes` | GET | List available custom themes | | `/api/admin/*` | GET/POST | Admin endpoints (requires auth) | ## Architecture - **Backend**: Python 3.12 + FastAPI + aiosqlite + yt-dlp - **Frontend**: Vue 3 + TypeScript + Pinia + Vite - **Transport**: Server-Sent Events for real-time progress - **Database**: SQLite with WAL mode - **Styling**: CSS custom properties (no Tailwind, no component library) - **Container**: Multi-stage build, non-root user, amd64 + arm64 ## License MIT
