YouTube to M3U8
M3U8 Generator For YouTube
- Updated m3u8 links of YouTube live channel, auto-updated every 3 hours.
## How to get started?
**1. Create a file.**
**`channel-name.txt`**
```
~~ DO NOT EDIT THE FIRST 2 LINES
~~ FORMAT: | | |
channel-name | | |
Paste here the URL you copied from the live youtube channel.
```
**2. Generate Python for "_channel-name.txt_".**
**`scripts/channel-name.py`**
```py script
#! /usr/bin/python3
import requests
import os
import sys
windows = False
if 'win' in sys.platform:
windows = True
def grab(url):
response = s.get(url, timeout=15).text
if '.m3u8' not in response:
response = requests.get(url).text
if '.m3u8' not in response:
if windows:
print('https://raw.githubusercontent.com/user-name/repo-name/main/assets/info.m3u8')
return
#os.system(f'wget {url} -O temp.txt')
os.system(f'curl "{url}" > temp.txt')
response = ''.join(open('temp.txt').readlines())
if '.m3u8' not in response:
print('https://raw.githubusercontent.com/user-name/repo-name/main/assets/info.m3u8')
return
end = response.find('.m3u8') + 5
tuner = 100
while True:
if 'https://' in response[end-tuner : end]:
link = response[end-tuner : end]
start = link.find('https://')
end = link.find('.m3u8') + 5
break
else:
tuner += 5
streams = s.get(link[start:end]).text.split('#EXT')
hd = streams[-1].strip()
st = hd.find('http')
print(hd[st:].strip())
#print(f"{link[start : end]}")
print('#EXTM3U')
print('#EXT-X-VERSION:3')
print('#EXT-X-STREAM-INF:PROGRAM-ID=1,BANDWIDTH=2560000')
s = requests.Session()
with open('../channel-name.txt') as f:
for line in f:
line = line.strip()
if not line or line.startswith('~~'):
continue
if not line.startswith('https:'):
line = line.split('|')
ch_name = line[0].strip()
grp_title = line[1].strip().title()
tvg_logo = line[2].strip()
tvg_id = line[3].strip()
else:
grab(line)
if 'temp.txt' in os.listdir():
os.system('rm temp.txt')
os.system('rm watch*')
```
_Re-edit :_ `https://raw.githubusercontent.com/user-name/repo-name/main/assets/info.m3u8` _and_ `../channel-name.txt`
**3. Add an error video (This happens if the youtube channel doesn't work at all).**
**`assets/info.m3u8`**
```
#EXTM3U
#EXT-X-VERSION:3
#EXT-X-TARGETDURATION:10
#EXT-X-MEDIA-SEQUENCE:0
#EXTINF:10.000000,
staytuned0.ts
#EXTINF:10.000000,
staytuned1.ts
#EXT-X-ENDLIST
```
**Download this short video and upload it to the "_assets_" folder and place it together with the `info.m3u8` file. For example [here](https://github.com/ZazerConer/YouTube-to-M3U8/tree/main/assets)**
_Click the link :_
- [staytuned0.ts](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ZazerConer/YouTube-to-M3U8/main/assets/staytuned0.ts)
- [staytuned1.ts](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ZazerConer/YouTube-to-M3U8/main/assets/staytuned1.ts)
**4. Create a Shell script file to install "_channel-name.py_" and auto generate a new file "_channel-name.m3u8_".**
**`channel-name.sh`**
```sh script
#!/bin/bash
echo $(dirname $0)
python3 -m pip install requests
cd $(dirname $0)/scripts/
python3 channel-name.py > ../channel-name.m3u8
echo m3u8 grabbed
```
_Re-edit :_ `channel-name.py` _and_ `../channel-name.m3u8`
**5. Run the workflows on "_Github Actions_".**
**`channel-name.yml`**
--> Go to the **_Actions_** section --> click **_New_** then select **_set up a workflow yourself_** --> the last one create the name **`channel-name.yml`** and copy paste the script file below.
```yml script
# This is a basic workflow to help you get started with Actions
name: channel-name
# Controls when the action will run.
on:
schedule:
- cron: '0 0/3 * * *'
pull_request:
branches:
- main
# Allows you to run this workflow manually from the Actions tab
workflow_dispatch:
# A workflow run is made up of one or more jobs that can run sequentially or in parallel
jobs:
# This workflow contains a single job called "build"
build:
# The type of runner that the job will run on
runs-on: ubuntu-latest
# Steps represent a sequence of tasks that will be executed as part of the job
steps:
# Checks-out your repository under $GITHUB_WORKSPACE, so your job can access it
- uses: actions/checkout@v2
# Runs a single command using the runners shell
#- name: Run a one-line script
# run: echo testing!
# Runs a set of commands using the runners shell
- name: config
run: |
git pull
git config --global user.email "your.email@gmail.com"
git config --global user.name "your-name"
- name: Main
run: |
pwd
chmod +x channel-name.sh
./channel-name.sh
- name: git add
run: |
git add -A
ls -la
- name: commit & push
run: |
git commit -m "Link updated"
git push
```
_Re-edit :_ `channel-name` in the first part of the second line. `your.email@gmail.com` and `your-name`. Under it `channel-name.sh` and `./channel-name.sh`
**You Are Done!**
Now you can wait until the Actions generates itself in **3 hours** on the workflows or you can create your own test.
**Like this :** --> Go to the **_Actions_** section --> click **_Select workflow_** click on the name of the workflow file you just created. --> Next below you will find the button **_Run workflow_** click that button --> finally click the green button **"Run workflow"**.
After that you wait in 2-3 seconds and refresh the page, you will see it working manually from yourself.
## Action works
**_Workflow run results_**
This is a success :

This is a failure :
