For lazy people like me, who don't want to setup whole development environment(install pip, virtualenv, etc) on their home machine, but want to backup coursera materials, with Coursera Downloader
You need only docker to be installed. (or only Vagrant, for more details look inside Vagrant file )
Create simple alias
alias coursera-dl='docker run --rm -v /tmp/coursera:/downloads mshytikov/coursera-dl-docker'
Run your coursera-dl (without --path argument):
coursera-dl -u <YOUR_COURSERA_EMAIL> -p <PASS> hwswinterface-002
Your files now available in /tmp/coursera
(owned by root user)
Enjoy.
