This is a project for Kids on Computers to give access to Khan Academy offline There are several tools available here: http://www.khanacademy.org/downloads However, the closest existing tool is designed for running a local instance of the website in Windows (using google app engine) and so this version of the tool took the python scripts from http://code.google.com/p/khanacademy/downloads/detail?name=KhanAcademy-1482.zip&can=2&q= and have been adapting them to a) work with other video formats (mp4, ogg) that exist on archive.org b) provide a command-line interface for interacting with this tool c) create a web interface to interact with the local video storage TODO: * remove video_mapping.py and replace with a list of the known categories in download.py adjust download.py: * to read each category's url (eg: http://www.archive.org/download/KhanAcademy_Geometry) and process list of filenames in each (as requested through the command line args for -c categories) * check if each video exists in local video/ dir before trying to download ** if not already downloaded, download each unique filename with a format that matches the requested list of formats to the video/ dir ** else, skip it * write an index page in the top level of koc_khan_offline that displays the content of the video dir so users can interact with the videos through that Nice to have: * keep a list of what doesn't download (or how far the script runs until?) * SMS if there are updates available (twilio) * easter egg - download one monty python video :)
