How to download Coursera materials with use of Python
Install coursera-dl by Dirk Gorissen:
python-pip install coursera-dl
Make a folder to store files:
mkdir -p ./courses/comnetworks-2012-001
Run:
coursera-dl -u y [email protected] -p your_password ./courses/comnetworks-2012-001 comnetworks-2012-001
Enjoy.
If you want to check if there are new materials you should run the same command. coursera-dl is smart enough to skip files you already have:
