PeerTube CLI
-
@imc67 I thought the CLI was something that we install on the desktop and not the server itself? Are you looking to automate something via the CLI + cron ? That might need some specialized package support. Let me know your use case so I can fix up the package accordingly.

@girish I was thinking about this for example: https://docs.joinpeertube.org/#/maintain-tools?id=peertube-import-videosjs
It must be possible to install it on a different server but it's rather download 1TB of YT videos to 'a server' and upload it again to the PeerTube app. That's why I thought about having CLI in the app.
There is also an example of Cron jobs, is that possible in the app?

I managed to get the CLI installed but installing plugins is still a mystery. This is because the CLI can only be installed by
cdinto the CLI workdir. And then to install it has to somehow install into the release package. Not sure how this is done. -
Hi @girish , I discovered PeerTube since it was announced here and was very enthusiastic because it fits in our needs. However during the past 6 weeks I'm beginning to loose faith in this project.
The project has a very slow "beat", they write they have only 1 (paid) developer. We had to wait 5 weeks to get an essential bug (not able to config) solved. After your last update it looked fine and I started to setup everything but then discovered a "stupid" bug again: videos don't play on iPad (https://github.com/Chocobozzz/PeerTube/issues/2941)! The developer knows this for at least 3 weeks but there seems no investigation/progress. Most of our viewers use iPad so we can't start (again) ...
There is also a very annoying issue that themes are alternating switching during browsing, so 1 click you're in dark mode and the next one in light mode (https://github.com/Chocobozzz/PeerTube/issues/3007). Beside that there are 350 other open issues ...I spent hours to find an alternative (I know Cloudron always have two apps of the same "kind") and found: https://platform.avideo.com/AVideo_OpenSource (https://github.com/WWBN/AVideo/blob/master/README.md) I will create an App request with this info.
Kind regards,
Marcel.

@girish I uploaded (via YT URL) 1 video just to test. Then discovered the, for us blocking issues and since then waiting for the update.
However, I remember that importing a YT playlist by URL didn’t seem to work (nothing happened). So I really prefer a build in CLI to do this.

Also interested in the cli to be able to relaunch transcoding jobs
example :
sudo -u peertube NODE_CONFIG_DIR=/var/www/peertube/config NODE_ENV=production npm run create-transcoding-job -- --generate-hls -v c249320b-5263-4b2b-b1e8-14d07403079c -
I tried (in the 0.7 version) the following command:
sudo -u root NODE_CONFIG_DIR=/var/www/peertube/config NODE_ENV=production npm run create-transcoding-job -- -v b8b791eb-9e38-4c4f-b797-0347662bb45fbut this error returns:
sudo: npm: command not foundIs the path in the command ok?

Yup, got a notification for it, very nice!
I will get to this next week though since we are rolling out 5.6 this week. But I am very interested in getting that app to stable state asap.
