Dependencies that are only required for running from code. These are not required if you are using the prebuilt binaries.

• NodeJS >= 18.0.0 (https://nodejs.org/)
• NPM >= 6.9.0 (https://www.npmjs.org/)
• PNPM >= 7.0.0 (https://pnpm.io/)

Please note that NodeJS, NPM, and PNPM must be installed on your system. For instructions on how to install pnpm, check (https://pnpm.io/installation)

First clone this repogit clone https://github.com/anidl/multi-downloader-nx.git.

cd into the cloned directory and runpnpm i. Next, decide if you want to package the application, build the code, or run from typescript.

You can run the code from native TypeScript, this requires ts-node which you can install with pnpm with the following command:pnpm -g i ts-node

Afterwords, you can run the application like this:

• CLI:ts-node -T ./index.ts --help

If you want to build the application into JavaScript code to run, you can do that as well like this:

• CLI:pnpm run prebuild-cli
• GUI:pnpm run prebuild-gui

Then you can cd into thelib folder and you will be able to run the CLI or GUI as follows:

• CLI:node ./index.js --help
• GUI:node ./gui.js

If you want to package the application, run pnpm run build-{platform}-{type} where{platform} is the operating system (currently the choices are windows, linux, macos, alpine, android, and arm) and{type} is cli or gui.

• mp4decrypt >= Any (http://www.bento4.com/) - Only required for decrypting (or shaka-packager)
• shaka-packager >= Any (https://github.com/stratumadev/shaka-packager/releases) - Only required for decrypting (or mp4decrypt)

In order to decrypt DRM content, you will need to have a dumped CDM, after that you will need to place the CDM files (device_client_id_blob anddevice_private_key orclient_id.bin andprivate_key.pem) into the./widevine/ directory. For legal reasons we do not include the CDM with the software, and you will have to source one yourself.

Playready CDMs are very easy to obtain, you can find them even on Github.Place the CDM in the./playready/ directory and you're all set!IMPORTANT: The Playready CDM (SL2000/SL3000) needs to be provisioned as aV3 Device by pyplayready (https://github.com/ready-dl/pyplayready).
