Is it possible to download youtube video links through php with resumable. I can easily fetch the download links through youtube-dl.

In PHP resumable, it needs to be known the size of the video. But from the link i can't fetch out the size, so is it possible to make resumable through PHP.

Let say the link is: [mp4]

Try this to get filesize:

<?php
 /**
 * Returns the size of a file without downloading it, or -1 if the file
 * size could not be determined.
 *
 * @param $url - The location of the remote file to download. Cannot
 * be null or empty.
 *
 * @return The size of the file referenced by $url, or -1 if the size
 * could not be determined.
 */
function curl_get_file_size( $url ) {
    // Assume failure.
    $result = -1;

    $curl = curl_init( $url );

    // Issue a HEAD request and follow any redirects.
    curl_setopt( $curl, CURLOPT_NOBODY, true );
    curl_setopt( $curl, CURLOPT_HEADER, true );
    curl_setopt( $curl, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true );
    curl_setopt( $curl, CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION, true );
    curl_setopt( $curl, CURLOPT_USERAGENT, 'user_agent_string' );

    $data = curl_exec( $curl );
    curl_close( $curl );

    if( $data ) {
        $content_length = "unknown";
        $status = "unknown";

        if( preg_match( "/^HTTP\/1\.[01] (\d\d\d)/", $data, $matches ) ) {
            $status = (int)$matches[1];
        }

        if( preg_match( "/Content-Length: (\d+)/", $data, $matches ) ) {
            $content_length = (int)$matches[1];
        }

        // http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_HTTP_status_codes
        if( $status == 200 || ($status > 300 && $status <= 308) ) {
            $result = $content_length;
        }
    }

    return $result;
}

Usage:

$file_size = curl_get_file_size($url);
