Enter either the YouTube URL or the video's specific ID to create a custom duration clip from any YouTube video of your choosing. Click "Crop" to be prompted to select the start and stop times of your desired cropped YouTube video.
Why Use This Site: YT Cropper is a tool to help you share you favorite YouTube videos online. Whether via Facebook, Twitter, email or text message, you can create a custom length, sharable link or embed from any YouTube Video.
Once you've selected the video you wish to crop and have entered the YouTube video link into YT Cropper, you will be able to set video start and stop times. This is a simple-to-use timeline bar which allows you to click and drag the slider along the bar to choose the times for your cropped video.
The Purpose of Custom-Length Cropped YouTube Videos: In some instances, sharing a full YouTube video might not accomplish your specific goals. The attention span of web users is limited, so perhaps you are trying to get a point across in a very short time period. If so, YT Cropper is the perfect tool for your needs.
pip install python-dotenv
If you only work alone, a single .env file works perfectly. The problems begin with .
Python does not natively load .env.python.local . You need to use the python-dotenv library to manage the loading order. 1. Install the Library python-dotenv - PyPI
database_url = os.getenv("DATABASE_URL") if not database_url: raise ValueError("DATABASE_URL environment variable is required") .env.python.local
Flask works seamlessly with python-dotenv. Install python-dotenv in your virtual environment, and Flask will automatically load variables from .env and .flaskenv files when the package is installed. For explicit control, load the files in your application code:
This public link is valid for 7 days and shares a thread, including any personal information you added. This link or copies made by others cannot be deleted. If you share with third parties, their policies apply. Can’t copy the link right now. Try again later.
Now go forth, brave coder, and let .env.python.local bring peace to your projects. 🌦️🐍 pip install python-dotenv If you only work alone, a single
env.read_env(BASE_DIR / '.env')
For production environments and sensitive secrets, consider these more secure alternatives:
So Alex added .env.python.local to .gitignore (so it would never be shared) and lived happily ever after—debugging freely on a laptop, running safely on the work server. You need to use the python-dotenv library to
# Local override has highest priority load_dotenv(python_local, override=True)
DATABASE_URL = os.getenv("DATABASE_URL") DEBUG = os.getenv("DEBUG", "False").lower() == "true"
The main .env file still said DEBUG=False . But because .env.python.local was loaded after .env , its setting took over.
With these practices in place, the .env.python.local pattern becomes not just a convenience, but a robust foundation for secure and maintainable Python application configuration.
Setting up a local environment using a file and a virtual environment (like
