By default downloads runs in vanopiano/download_ytdl:latest which can be changed with DOCKER_IMAGE variable:

Need to mount /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock in order to use this type of run

.env example:

BOT_TOKEN=XXXXXXX
USER_TO_SEND=XXXXXXX
YDL_OPTIONS="--video-multistreams --merge-output-format mp4"
FILE_FORMAT="%(uploader)s/%(upload_date)s.%(title)s.%(id)s.%(ext)s"
DOWNLOAD_DIR=/downloads
DOWNLOAD_IN_DOCKER=false
DOCKER_MOUNT_PATH=/downloads # default
# required, it needs to be absolute path or docker volume
DOCKER_VOLUME=download-volume
DOCKER_IMAGE=vanopiano/download_ytdl:latest # default
DEV=1

• DOWNLOAD_DIR used as -P parameter for yt-dlp, so it can include some path inside mounted dir (DOCKER_MOUNT_PATH variable).
• DOCKER_VOLUME - volume to mount as DOCKER_MOUNT_PATH inside download docker image (DOCKER_IMAGE)

.env example:

BOT_TOKEN=XXXXXXX
USER_TO_SEND=XXXXXXX
YDL_OPTIONS="--video-multistreams --merge-output-format mp4"
DOWNLOAD_DIR=./data
FILE_FORMAT="%(uploader)s/%(upload_date)s.%(title)s.%(id)s.%(ext)s"
