前言
现在知乎允许上传视频，奈何不能下载视频，好气哦，无奈之下研究一下了，然后撸了代码，方便下载视频保存。
接下来以 猫为什么一点也不怕蛇？ 回答为例，分享一下整个下载过程。

调试一下
打开 f12, 找到光标，如下图：
然后将光标移动到视频上。如下图：
咦这是什么？视野中出现了一条神秘的链接: https://www.zhihu.com/video/xxxxx，让我们将这条链接复制到浏览器上，然后打开：
似乎这就是我们要找的视频，不要着急，让我们看一看，网页的请求，然后你会发现一个很有意思的请求(重点来了):
让我们自己看一下数据吧:
{ "playlist": { "ld": { "width": 360, "format": "mp4", "play_url": "https://vdn.vzuu.com/ld/05fc411e-d8e0-11e8-bb8b-0242ac112a0b.mp4?auth_key=1541477643-0-0-987c2c504d14ab1165ce2ed47759d927&expiration=1541477643&disable_local_cache=1", "duration": 17, "size": 1123111, "bitrate": 509, "height": 640 }, "hd": { "width": 720, "format": "mp4", "play_url": "https://vdn.vzuu.com/hd/05fc411e-d8e0-11e8-bb8b-0242ac112a0b.mp4?auth_key=1541477643-0-0-8b8024a22a62f097ca31b8b06b7233a1&expiration=1541477643&disable_local_cache=1", "duration": 17, "size": 4354364, "bitrate": 1974, "height": 1280 }, "sd": { "width": 480, "format": "mp4", "play_url": "https://vdn.vzuu.com/sd/05fc411e-d8e0-11e8-bb8b-0242ac112a0b.mp4?auth_key=1541477643-0-0-5948c2562d817218c9a9fc41abad1df8&expiration=1541477643&disable_local_cache=1", "duration": 17, "size": 1920976, "bitrate": 871, "height": 848 } }, "title": "", "duration": 17, "cover_info": { "width": 720, "thumbnail": "https://pic2.zhimg.com/80/v2-97b9435a0c32d01c7c931bd00120327d_b.jpg", "height": 1280 }, "type": "video", "id": "1039146361396174848", "misc_info": {}}
没错了，我们要下载的视频就在这里面，其中 ld 代表普清,sd 代表标清, hd 代表高清，把相应链接再次在浏览器打开，然后右键保存就可以下载视频了。
代码
知道整个流程是什么样子，接下来撸代码的过程就简单了，这里就不过再做过多解释了，直接上代码:

结语
代码还有优化空间，这里面我只是下载了回答中的第一个视频，理论上应该存在一个回答下可以有多个视频的。如果还有什么疑问或者建议，可以多多交流。
