toolsx packages a small CLI toolbox with a few ready-to-use commands:

• ytm-dl - download a single YouTube Music song or a full playlist as tagged MP3 files.
• tg-uploader - upload a file to Telegram with a bot session.
• subtitle-extract - extract video subtitles or auto-captions as UTF-8 JSON, SRT, or text.
• netis - Netis router administration CLI for status, Wi-Fi, WAN, devices, and WPS.
• toolsx - list the installed tools and dispatch to a tool by name.

pip install tools_extra

The package is published as tools_extra, but the installed CLI commands stay toolsx, ytm-dl, tg-uploader and netis.

From the repo:

python -m pip install .

Running toolsx prints the available tools:

toolsx

You can also dispatch through the umbrella command:

toolsx ytm-dl --help
toolsx tg-uploader --help
toolsx subtitle-extract --help
toolsx netis --help

Direct commands stay available too:

ytm-dl --help
tg-uploader --help
subtitle-extract --help
netis --help

subtitle-extract uses yt-dlp metadata to inspect available subtitles, lets you choose a language when needed, and writes UTF-8 output as json, srt, or txt.

Examples:

subtitle-extract --url "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VIDEO_ID"
subtitle-extract --id VIDEO_ID --lang en --type srt
subtitle-extract --url "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VIDEO_ID" --lang ar --type txt --output ./captions.txt
subtitle-extract --url "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VIDEO_ID" --cookies-file ./cookies.txt --debug
subtitle-extract --url "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VIDEO_ID" --browser chrome --browser-profile Default
subtitle-extract --url "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VIDEO_ID" --js-runtime bun --js-runtime-path /opt/homebrew/bin/bun

• --lang skips the interactive language picker.
• --type defaults to json.
• --output defaults to <video-id>.<type>.
• --cookies-file and --browser support videos that need authenticated subtitle access.
• --js-runtime defaults to bun; use --js-runtime-path to point yt-dlp at a specific runtime binary.
• If --lang is omitted, the tool shows available languages and prompts you to choose one.

No browser.json file is required for public URLs or IDs.

ytm-dl --url "https://music.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL..."
ytm-dl --url "https://music.youtube.com/watch?v=VIDEO_ID"
ytm-dl --id VIDEO_ID

For private playlists, liked songs, or library selection, create browser.json first with the ytmusicapi browser auth guide:

• https://ytmusicapi.readthedocs.io/en/stable/setup/browser.html

Then run:

ytm-dl --auth-file browser.json --library-index 1

ytm-dl \
  --url "https://music.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL..." \
  --output-dir ./exports \
  --yes-all \
  --songs-limit 25 \
  --lyrics-metadata \
  --zip \
  --zip-max-size 2000000000

• --cookies-file uses a cookies.txt file instead of browser cookie extraction.
• --browser and --browser-profile use cookies directly from a browser when needed.
• --js-runtime defaults to bun; --js-runtime-path lets yt-dlp use an explicit runtime binary path.
• --yes-all skips the first-song confirmation and downloads the whole playlist immediately.
• --output-dir sets the base export directory; by default files go to ./[Album-Name].
• --songs-limit defaults to all songs when omitted.
• --lyrics-metadata fetches lyrics with timestamps and saves them into MP3 metadata.
• --keep-original-audio skips MP3 conversion/tagging and keeps the downloaded source audio extension.
• --mp3-bitrate controls MP3 conversion bitrate when MP3 conversion is enabled.
• --debug enables verbose logs for lyrics, thumbnails, metadata, and full yt-dlp output.
• --zip-max-size splits archives into .partNN.zip files once the source bytes per archive reach the limit.

If required input is missing in interactive mode, ytm-dl asks for it.

tg-uploader accepts values from CLI args first, then environment variables, then prompts.

It supports both --file for a single upload and --files for multiple uploads from explicit paths or glob patterns.

Supported environment variables:

• TOOLSX_TG_API_ID, TG_API_ID, TELEGRAM_API_ID
• TOOLSX_TG_API_HASH, TG_API_HASH, TELEGRAM_API_HASH
• TOOLSX_TG_BOT_TOKEN, TG_BOT_TOKEN, TELEGRAM_BOT_TOKEN
• TOOLSX_TG_CHAT_ID, TG_CHAT_ID, TELEGRAM_CHAT_ID

Example:

export TOOLSX_TG_API_ID=12345
export TOOLSX_TG_API_HASH=your_api_hash
export TOOLSX_TG_BOT_TOKEN=123:token
export TOOLSX_TG_CHAT_ID=-1001234567890

tg-uploader --file ./archive.zip --caption "Nightly build"
tg-uploader --files './exports/*'
tg-uploader --files './exports/*.mp3' './exports/*.flac'

Interactive mode also accepts glob patterns from the current directory. For example, entering (*) uploads all visible files in the current directory, and (*.mp3) uploads all matching MP3 files. If a pattern matches nothing, the command exits with an error.

Debug mode:

tg-uploader --file ./archive.zip --debug

• Example:

netis # Friendly TUI
netis --full-report
netis --wlan-info
netis --admin-password newpasshere
netis --internet-info
netis --devices-info
netis --wps-info
netis -h

git clone https://github.com/z44d/toolsx
cd toolsx
python -m pip install -e .

1. Add the new module under src/.
2. Register it in src/toolsx/registry.py so toolsx lists it.
3. Add one console script entry under [project.scripts] in pyproject.toml.
