ClipScraper Downloader

App to download content from Youtube, TikTok, Instagram, Pinterest

Features:

Single download:

• Giving the url of a specific youtube, tiktok or instagram content it should download it to the selected folder (by default, download folder). Selected option may apply to only get the audio if the link points to a video.

Bulk download:

• Using the companion extension (currently only available on Chromium based browsers) the app can accept a list of urls scraped from pages/profiles/bookmarks and download them sequentially, or in parallel, and output files sorted by platform, and collection

Local Development

Recommended IDE Setup

This template should help get you started developing with Tauri and Yew.

VS Code + Tauri + rust-analyzer.

To run the app in development mode with hot-reloading:

sh run.sh

This script handles the setup of necessary configuration files and starts the Tauri development server.

Building the Application

You can build a production-ready, optimized version of your application for your current operating system.

Standard Build

This command creates an optimized executable and associated installer.

cargo tauri build

The output will be located in src-tauri/target/release/bundle/.

Recompiling

To ensure you are starting from a clean slate, you can clean the build artifacts before recompiling.

# Clean previous build artifacts
cargo clean

# Build the application again
cargo tauri build

Cross-Platform Compilation

Tauri can build your application for different platforms from a single machine.

Building for Windows (from macOS/Linux)

cargo tauri build --target x86_64-pc-windows-msvc

Building for macOS (from Windows/Linux)

Note: Building for macOS from a non-macOS machine is complex and often requires setting up a cross-compilation toolchain and a macOS SDK. It's generally recommended to build for macOS on a macOS machine.

cargo tauri build --target x86_64-apple-darwin
# For Apple Silicon
cargo tauri build --target aarch64-apple-darwin

Building for Linux (from macOS/Windows) -- Untested yet

cargo tauri build --target x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu

The output for cross-platform builds will also be in the src-tauri/target/release/bundle/ directory, under the respective target's folder.
