Could this script download the 'specializations' or 'learn ' course in coursera ?

[wdongm]

I want to learn the machine learning,someone recommend me a series of course in this website

https://www.coursera.org/specializations/machine-learning

or

https://www.coursera.org/learn/ml-foundations/

Could this script download the specializations course in coursera ?

THX !!!

@wangdongming007 It can't download the whole specialization, but it can download each on-demand course separately (the one with /learn/ in the path). If you're using github version, simply pass course name. If you're using version from pip, add --on-demand option (though it's deprecated and will be removed).

@balta2ar thx very much,it can work use the a command line coursera-dl -u *** -p *** --on-demand ml-foundations

But After the download a course,a problems happen as follow,it seems cookies has problem : do you know how to fix it ?

@wangdongming007 Class name is ml-foundations, not learn/ml-foundations. It looks like you're using github version, so --on-demand option is not required, please remove it from command line. Command line should look like this:

coursera-dl -u ******** -p ********* ml-foundations

Try it and see whether it works.

Receiving same error as @wangdongming007 when trying to download mathematics-and-python course. Was able to successfully download ml-foundations course with code provided by @balta2ar

[crypdick]

@balta2ar's code is not working for me. I can stream the ml-foundations lectures fine off the website.
