Hi! when I try to download a song and i'm getting this error. Is the server 52.232.85.160 still working?

Hi, unfortunately the server is no longer working, but you can setup https://github.com/var77/youtube-audio locally or on your server, for any questions I’m ready to help!

Great! I would like to run it. I've never work with python. How can I run it locally?

@pabloneme91 Hi, that's python server to get audio from youtube video, you can run it locally or on your server for that firstly you need Linux or OS X machine to run nginx, or if you can setup other webserver in windows it's ok. If you look at nginx.conf file you'll find nginx config, if you are using OS X or Linux just make it executable by typing sudo chmod 700 nginx.conf, then change the nginx config file location in the script it's under CONFIG_FILE variable, in the new versions of nginx it's /etc/nginx/conf.d/ , since in my server it wasn't the newest version it was /etc/nginx/sites-enabled. Then run the executable by typing ./nginx.conf so it will add config file for nginx. After that install python and pip on you machine and install pafy, and pydub packages via pip by tying pip install pafy && pip install pydub. After that just type python main.py to run the server. Now if you go to http://127.0.0.1/api?vid= it should download the audio of that video convert it to mp3 and give the URL, you'll also need to change the SERVER_URL variable in converter.py to get right response, if you are running in localhost just put there http://127.0.0.1/ , after downloading and converting the audio to mp3 it will save it under ./dist folder in youtube-audio project folder.
