This is a web application for downloading videos from YouTube, Instagram, and X (formerly Twitter). It features user management, cookie support for private videos, customizable download locations, and a clean, modern interface.

• Multi-Platform Downloader: Download videos and audio from YouTube, Instagram, and X.
• User Authentication: Secure login and registration system with JWT-based authentication.
• User & Admin Roles: A default admin user is created, and new users are assigned the 'USER' role.
• Custom Settings: Users can specify their download path and provide cookies to download private/members-only content.
• File Browser: View downloaded files, neatly categorized by platform.
• Easy Deployment: Containerized with Docker and includes a simple installation script for Proxmox LXC on Debian.

• Framework: Next.js 14
• Language: TypeScript
• Styling: Tailwind CSS
• UI Components: Shadcn UI
• Database: Prisma ORM with SQLite
• Authentication: JWT, bcryptjs
• Downloader: yt-dlp-wrap

• Node.js (v20.x or later)
• npm
• yt-dlp installed and available in your system's PATH. (The Docker container handles this automatically).

1. Clone the repository:

   git clone <your-repo-url>
   cd socialdownload

2. Install dependencies:

   npm install

3. Create your environment file: Copy the example file and generate a secret key.

   cp .env.local.example .env.local

   Open .env.local and replace your-super-secret-jwt-key with a long, random string.

4. Set up the database and seed it: This will create the SQLite database file and add a default admin user.

   npx prisma generate
   npx prisma db push
   npm run seed

   The default admin credentials are:

   • Email: admin@example.com
   • Password: admin

5. Run the development server:

   npm run dev

   The application will be available at http://localhost:3000.

1. Build the image:

   docker build -t social-downloader .

2. Run the container: Create directories for persistent data first.

   mkdir -p data/db
   mkdir -p data/downloads

   Then run the container, making sure to create and point to a .env file.

   docker run -d \
     -p 3000:3000 \
     --name social-downloader \
     --env-file .env \
     -v "$(pwd)/data/db:/app/prisma" \
     -v "$(pwd)/data/downloads:/downloads" \
     --restart unless-stopped \
     social-downloader

The install_lxc.sh script automates the entire setup process on a fresh Debian 12 container.

1. Edit the script: Open install_lxc.sh and change the REPO_URL variable to your repository's URL.

2. Run the script as root: Copy the script to your LXC container and run it.

   chmod +x install_lxc.sh
   ./install_lxc.sh

   The script will install Docker, clone the repo, build the image, and run the container.

Important: After deploying, go to the application's settings page and set the Download Path to /downloads to ensure files are saved to the persistent volume created by the deployment scripts.
