Description

CLI app that scrapes movies and shows from multiple sources and allows you to download them

Installation

git clone https://github.com/zisra/movie-scraper
cd movie-scraper
npm install

Usage

npm start

You will be prompted to search for a movie or show. The app will then scrape multiple sources for the movie or show and display the results. You can then select a source and download the file.

The file format is either mp4, m3u8, or mkv, depending on the source. Playing mp4 files should relatively be easy, but some other formats may not be supported. I recommend VLC (Cross-platform) or IINA (MacOS).

Options

You can change options in the .env file in the root directory or set the environment variables. Possible options are:

DOWNLOAD_COMMAND=open -a IINA '<url>' # Command to run with the download link. '<url>' will be be automatically replaced with the download link
DEBUG_MODE=true # Log complete error messages
TIMEOUT_MS=10000 # Timeout for each scraper in milliseconds
