Discord Player Distube Based Extractor

A extractor for discord-player that uses the DisTube utilities under the hood.
Only supports YouTube for now. May add support for other platforms in the future.

---

Install

``bash
npm i discord-player-distube
`

Supported Platforms

- YouTube (search, videos, playlists and mixes)
- Still under development - Youtube mixes are NOT working ATM.

Usage

`ts
import { Player } from "discord-player";
import { DisTubeExtractor } from "discord-player-distube-extractor";

const player = new Player(client);

player.extractors.register(DisTubeExtractor, {
// optional
youtube: {
cookies: "SID=...; HSID=...; ..." || ytdl-core Cookie[],
ytdlOptions: { }
}
});
`

Then use discord-player as usual (player.play(...), etc.).

Options

- youtube.cookies?: string | ytdl.Cookie[]
- Optional cookies for YouTube (e.g., to unlock age-restricted videos). Provide as a single Cookie header string (e.g., "SID=...; HSID=..."). An array of @distube/ytdl-core Cookie objects is also accepted.
- youtube.ytdlOptions?: ytdl.getInfoOptions
- Extra options forwarded to @distube/ytdl-core for info/stream extraction (e.g. headers, highWaterMark).
