# IPTVnator - IPTV Player Application

Telegram channel for discussions

**IPTVnator** is a video player application that provides support for IPTV playlist playback (m3u, m3u8). The application allows users to import playlists using remote URLs or by uploading files from the local file system. Additionally, it supports EPG information in XMLTV format which can be provided via URL.

The application is a cross-platform, open-source project built with Electron (currently migrating to Tauri) and Angular.

⚠️ Note: IPTVnator does not provide any playlists or other digital content. The channels and pictures in the screenshots are for demonstration purposes only.

Alternatively, you can install the application using one of the following package managers:

### Snap

```shell
$ sudo snap install iptvnator
```

### Arch

Also available as an Arch PKG, [iptvnator-bin](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/iptvnator-bin/), in the AUR (using your favourite AUR-helper, .e.g. `yay`)
```shell
$ yay -S iptvnator-bin
```

## How to Build and Develop

Requirements:
* Node.js with npm
* Rust (required for tauri)

1. Clone this repository and install project dependencies:
```
$ npm install
```

2. Start the application:
```
$ npm run tauri dev
```

This will open the Tauri version in a separate window, while the PWA version will be available at http://localhost:4200.

To run only the Angular app without Tauri, use:

```
$ npm run serve
```
