How to add progress bar?

Question

Is there a way to add progress bar in pytube? I don\'t know how to use the following method:

pytube.Stream().on_progress(chunk, file_handler, bytes_remaining         


        

Answer 1

Somewhat shorter option:

yt = YouTube(video_link, on_progress_callback=progress_function)

video = yt.streams.first() # or whatever 

# Prints something like "15.555% done..." 
def progress_function(stream, chunk, file_handle, bytes_remaining):
    print(round((1-bytes_remaining/video.filesize)*100, 3), '% done...')

You can, of course, limit the progress output, for instance, to values like 10, 20, 30%... - just surround the print statement with the required if-clause.
