+# Import videos from Youtube guide
+
+You can use this script to import videos from Youtube channel to Peertube.  
+Be sure you own the videos or have the author's authorization to do so.
+
+ - [Installation](#installation)
+ - [Usage](#usage)
+
+## Installation
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+You need at least 512MB RAM to run the script.  
+Importation can be launched directly from a peertube server (in this case you already have dependencies installed :+1:) or from a separate server, even a dekstop PC.  
+
+### Dependencies
+
+If you do not run the script from a Peertube server, you need to follow the steps of the [dependencies guide](dependencies.md).
+
+### Installation
+
+Clone the Peertube repo to get the latest version inside your server:
+
+```
+git clone https://github.com/Chocobozzz/PeerTube.git
+CLONE="$(pwd)/Peertube"
+```
+
+Run ``yarn install``
+```
+cd ${CLONE}
+yarn install
+```
+
+Build server tools:
+```
+cd ${CLONE}
+npm run build:server
+```
+
+
+## Usage
+
+You are now ready to run the script : 
+
+```
+cd ${CLONE}
+node dist/server/tools/import-youtube.js -u "PEERTUBE_URL" -U "PEERTUBE_USER" --password "PEERTUBE_PASSWORD" -y "YOUTUBE_URL"
+```
+
+ - PEERTUBE_URL : the full URL of your peertube server where you want to import, eg: https://peertube.cpy.re/
+ - PEERTUBE_USER : your peertube account where videos will be uploaded
+ - PEERTUBE_PASSWORD : password of your peertube account
+ - YOUTUBE_URL : the youtube channel you want to import. Supports Youtube channel (eg https://www.youtube.com/channel/ChannelId) or Youtube user (eg: https://www.youtube.com/c/UserName or https://www.youtube.com/user/UserName)
+
+ The script will get all public videos from Youtube, download them, then upload to Peertube.  
+ Already downloaded videos will not be uploaded twice, so you can run and re-run the script in case of crash, disconnection, ... without problem.
