 # YouTubeChannelDownloader
-A docker container (can also be run as a Windows console app) to download all videos from a YouTube channel in the highest quality available, and move them via SFTP to another device for processing. This is ideal for Plex.
+
+This Dockerized application is intended to enable programmatic downloading of all videos on a given YouTube channel, and upload them to an SFTP server, ready for use with Plex. My personal use case for this is to upload the files to a Handbrake Docker container before then importing the converted files to Plex.
+
+## Running on Windows instead of Docker
+
+This can be run on Windows instead of Docker, however you will have to make some modifications.
+
+Uncomment the two `FFmpeg` targets in the csproj file, this will enable downloading FFmpeg using the ps1 script on build.
+
+In `DownloadVideoAsync` uncomment the Windows `ConversionRequest` and comment out the Docker one. This enables using the FFmpeg from the project folder, rather than one at a specific Linux path for Docker.
+
+Set the channel id manually in the `Private Variables` rather than reading from an environment variable - this should be read from a config file, or you can manually specify environment variables in Visual Studio itself if you don't want to make code changes.
+
+Set the SFTP details manually in `TransferFileToNasShare` rather than reading from environment variables - this should be read from a config file, or you can manually specify environment variables in Visual Studio itself if you don't want to make code changes.
+
+## Build the database
+
+To build the database, open a terminal from the project folder (not the solution folder) and run each of these commands in turn.
+
+`dotnet tool install --global dotnet-ef`
+`dotnet add package Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.Design`
+`dotnet ef migrations add InitialCreate`
+`dotnet ef database update`
+
+On Windows this will create a database file for you in the folder `C:\Users\YOURUSERNAME\AppData\Local`.
