What is yubal?

yubal is a self-hosted app for building a local music library. Paste a YouTube Music album URL, and yubal handles downloading, tagging, and album art — automatically.

Features:

  • Web Interface: Clean, responsive UI for submitting albums and monitoring real-time progress.
  • Job Queue: Integrated FIFO queue that processes downloads sequentially to ensure reliability and avoid rate limiting.
  • Smart Auto-tagging: Automatic metadata fetching via beets, enriched by Spotify's metadata for accurate tracklists and art.
  • Format Configuration: Optimized for opus (native YouTube quality), with optional transcoding for other formats
  • Docker-ready: Multi-arch support (amd64/arm64) for easy deployment.
