Ruby Tapas Downloader

Ruby Tapas is a great series of screencasts by Avdi Grimm. You should totally check it out if you don't already know it!

There's only one problem with Ruby Tapas, in my opinion: there's no way to watch it via straming. One can only download episodes, which soon becomes tedious.

Enters Ruby Tapas Downloader! It downloads all episodes and attachments, organizes them for later use and keeps an easy to use index of episodes.

Usage

Clone this repository:

$ git clone git://github.com/leafac/ruby-tapas-downloader.git

Change to the newly created directory:

$ cd ruby-tapas-downloader

Run it:

$ ruby ruby_tapas_downloader.rb <username> <password> [episodes_path]

Pretty standard Ruby application, huh?

An optional VERBOSE environment variable is available. When set to true, it logs the hell out of operations, which is useful for debugging.

Episodes and code are downloaded to a directory called episodes in the current folder.

Warning

Except for a few episodes, Ruby Tapas is a paid screencast. Therefore, assert that you don't redistribute the downloaded material. Ruby Tapas Downloader is only an utility tool and doesn't substitute the subscription.

You should do no evil!

Thanks

Thanks Avdi Grimm for putting all this great material out the door!

I learn a lot from you.
