vimeo-dl

A container image based on Javi3rV script to download segmented videos from vimeo.
It supports playlist.json and master.json urls.

Example usage

From the command line

python video.py 'https://...playlist.json?...' -o my_video

Environment variables (SRC_URL, OUT_FILE, MAX_WORKERS) are still honored as fallbacks, so existing Docker/compose setups continue to work unchanged.

Run python video.py --help for the full flag list.

From docker CLI

docker run \
  -e 'SRC_URL=https://...' \
  -e 'OUT_FILE=/downloads/video.mp4' \
  -v $(pwd)/out:/downloads \
  --rm -it davidecavestro/vimeo-dl

From docker compose

version: "3"

services:
  downloader:
    build:
      context: .
    volumes:
    - ./out:/downloads
    environment:
    - SRC_URL=${SRC_URL}
    - OUT_FILE=${OUT_FILE}
    - MAX_WORKERS=${MAX_WORKERS}

passing the url from .env file

SRC_URL=https://...
OUT_FILE=/downloads/video.mp4
MAX_WORKERS=5
