Downloads new lessons and series from laracasts if there are updates. Or the whole catalogue.
Working good at 31/05/2017
Syncs your local folder with the laracasts website, when there are new lessons the app download it for you. If your local folder is empty, all lessons and series will be downloaded!
A .skip file is used to prevent downloading deleted lessons for these with space problems. Thanks to @vinicius73
Just call php makeskips.php before deleting the lessons.

- You can use series and lessons slugs (preferred because there are some custom slugs too)
- You can download multiples series/lessons
php start.php -s "Series name example" -s "series-slug-example"
php start.php --series-name "Series name example" -series-name "series-slug-example"
php start.php -l "Lesson name example" -l "lesson-slug-example"
php start.php --lesson-name "Lessons name example" --lesson-name "lesson-slug-example"
If you have a cURL error 60: SSL certificate problem: self signed certificate in certificate chain or SLL error: cURL error 35 do this:
- Download http://curl.haxx.se/ca/cacert.pem
- Add
curl.cainfo = "PATH_TO/cacert.pem"to your php.ini
And you are done! If using apache you may need to restart it.
