Of course, there are a lot of things that still need to be done. The web interface is still pretty limited, and there might still be uncaught bugs. These are some of the things that need to be done:
3. Set up the database: `python3 manage.py migrate`
By default, a SQLite database is used, which is located in the project's folder.
You can customize that in `YtManager/settings.py`, by modifying the `DATABASES` variable (search Django documentation for details).
4. Set up the `MEDIA_ROOT` variable in `YtManager/settings.py`. This is where the thumbnails will be downloaded.
(note: this will be moved to `config.ini` in the future).
5. Obtain an YouTube API developer key from [https://console.developers.google.com/apis/dashboard](https://console.developers.google.com/apis/dashboard).
You can find a detailed guide on [this page](https://www.slickremix.com/docs/get-api-key-for-youtube/).
The `defaults.ini` file already has an API key, but if the quotas are reached, you won't be able to use this program
any more. Also, I might decide to delete that key, which will break your installation.
6. Modify `config/config.ini` to your liking. All the settings should be documented through comments.
All these settings apply server-wide. The settings in the `user` section can be overriden from the web page for each
individual user.
The most important settings are:
*`[Global] YoutubeApiKey` - put your YouTube API key here
*`[User] DownloadPath` - sets the folder where videos will be downloaded
7. Start the server: `python3 manage.py runserver [port] --noreload`
The `port` parameter is optional.
The `--noreload` option is necessary, otherwise the scheduler will run on 2 separate processes at the same time,
which is not ideal.
8. Open the server's page in your browser, by entering `http://localhost:port` in your address bar.
9. Create an admin user by going to the *register* page, and creating an user account.
