REST server to invoke ytdl-sub downloads about ytdl-sub HOT 6 OPEN

Or to add content to it? Was thinking of a visual studio code template, or some sort of small app in the front for this purpose

from ytdl-sub.

initial ideas

get config (dump config yaml so items can be consumed for web etc)
download (preset to use) download from url and use preset to dl
save (preset, options (overrides)) save url to sub and use the passed preset and overrides

I'd love to be able to have this so i can (on my end) create the capability to message hubot from within slack and tell him to go download a specific playlist or video.

I think the idea isn't too shabby but maybe feels a little out of scope for ytdl-sub.
I'm somewhat new to homeservers. Couldn't a simple script that ssh into your machine, logs into the docker server and executes the cron job be a solution to that?

This is adding downloads to list etc or one off downloads. Also an API is pretty standard nowadays to trigger events

Opening your home server for external SSH is risky and generally not advisable. If anybody manages to gain access to your credentials, they will have full remote control over your machine. A REST server confined within the docker container can be safely exposed to the internet without compromising the rest of the machine, because it can only do predefined actions within the docker vm
