SuberCool 😎 0.0.1 is out

I slapped this little thing together last week, it’s ready now, here is the documentation.

Download subtitles in any language from the Gnome “Files” manager (Nautilus) or directly from the shell.

Then to install it as a Nautilus plugin:

mkdir -p ~/.local/share/nautilus/scripts
ln -s ~/.local/bin/subercool.py ~/.local/share/nautilus/scripts/Download__Subtitles

Configuration

Follow the instructions to get an api key (it’s quite simple really) which is a simple string of 32 characters.
Then, either pass this string as an argument like this:

1
subercool.py -k API_KEY ~/Videos/MyMovie.mp4

Or (simpler, and mandatory for the Nautilus plugin mode) put in in a file named ~/.local_variables.json like this:

~/.local_variables.json
1
2
3
4
{
    "opensubtitles_api_key": "API_KEY"
}
