Run the bot by executing the Python file:
TOKEN = 'YOUR_API_TOKEN_HERE'
Create a new Python file (e.g., youtube_bot.py ) and add the following code:
dp = updater.dispatcher
def download_playlist(update, context): playlist_url = update.message.text.split(' ')[-1] playlist = Playlist(playlist_url) for video in playlist.videos: video.streams.filter(progressive=True, file_extension='mp4').first().download() context.bot.send_message(chat_id=update.effective_chat.id, text='Playlist downloaded!')
def main(): updater = Updater(TOKEN, use_context=True)
pip install python-telegram-bot pip install pytube telegram bot to download youtube playlist hot
if __name__ == '__main__': main() Replace YOUR_API_TOKEN_HERE with the API token you received from BotFather.
python youtube_bot.py The bot will start polling for updates. You can now interact with your bot in Telegram.
import logging from telegram.ext import Updater, CommandHandler, MessageHandler from pytube import Playlist Run the bot by executing the Python file:
dp.add_handler(CommandHandler('start', start)) dp.add_handler(MessageHandler(Filters.text, download_playlist))
updater.start_polling() updater.idle()
def start(update, context): context.bot.send_message(chat_id=update.effective_chat.id, text='Hello! I can help you download YouTube playlists.') import logging from telegram
In this article, we created a Telegram bot that can download YouTube playlists with just a few commands. We used Python and its ecosystem to interact with the Telegram API and download videos using the pytube library. You can now automate your YouTube playlist downloads and access them through a convenient messaging app. Happy bot-building!
