I built a khinsider Explorer & Bulk Downloader

I think I did something beautiful.

Spent my last few days building and refining a TUI app to browse and download the whole khinsider download catalouge: khi-explorer

You can easily search for OSTs, navigate albums, download individual tracks and YES even whole albums at once!

I think that's the most outstanding feature a lot of people want - just press D-key on an entry and you will see a progress bar showing you when it's finished.

On first launch the app will create .khi_explorer.yaml in your home directory. There you can set:

  • Download path (default: [HOME_DIRECTORY]/khi_explorer)
  • Default format (you can switch this anytime inside the app by pressing TAB-key)
  • Player for live playback (you must have mpv, ffplay or vlc installed but most people already have)

It's built in Go using the Bubbletea library, so it's easy to cross-compile and you can install it on Windows, Linux or macOS using the linked install scripts on GitHub or by just downloading the binary directly from the releases page (Linux binary is heavily compressed using upx; macOS sadly not supported; Windows Defender says no-no very bad)

Happy exploring! 🙂
