Download all video lectures from a MIT-OCW course with a single command.
- Intentionally detailed names, so that it will display and sort properly
on most interfaces (e.g., MX Video, or VLC on Android devices).
- URL and lecture name filters to download only video files.
- Tested on Mac (Python 3.6).
-
mit-ocw-scrapper basically needs a link to the video lectures page of a MIT-OCW course (which of course has video lectures). The link would be something like [http://ocw.mit.edu/cources/college/course-title/video-lectures/]
-
Make a virtual environment for this project on your local machine and activate it.
-
Copy the
download.pyfile to the folder where you want to download the video lectures. -
Run
python download.py <Lecture Link>orpython3 download.py <Lecture Link>in case you have more than one versions of python installed on your system. -
Voila! Download must have started by now.
-
If you want to contribute to this project, feel free to fork it and send a PR :)
- mit-ocw-scrapper only supports video content of the course presently but attempts are on to make it download entire contents (lecture slides, assignments, solutions etc.)
