sudo apt install youtube-dl

Install via composer

This publishes a devtube.php file in your config/ directory Please set your default options there.

use DevsWebDev\DevTube\Download;

class YoutubeDownloadController extends Controller
{
    public function download()
    {
    $dl = new Download($url = "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ye5BuYf8q4o", $format = "mp4", $download_path = "music" );

    //Saves the file to specified directory
    $media_info = $dl->download();
    $media_info = $media_info->first();

    // Return as a download
    return response()->download($media_info['file']->getPathname());
