python .\test_run.py

```



or



```powershell

source .venv/bin/activate && python test_run.py && deactivate

```



#### On Linux/MacOS/BSD:

```



## Binary Location



### Default Locations

- **Windows**: `C:\binary`

- **MacOS**: `~/Applications/binary`

- **Linux**: `~/.local/bin/binary`



You can customize these locations by following these steps for your operating system:



#### Windows

1. Move the binary folder from `C:\binary` to your desired location

2. Add the new path to Windows environment variables:

   - Open Start menu and search for "Environment Variables"

   - Click "Edit the system environment variables"

   - Click "Environment Variables" button

   - Under "System Variables", find and select "Path"

   - Click "Edit"

   - Add the new binary folder path

   - Click "OK" to save changes



For detailed Windows PATH instructions, see the [Windows PATH guide](https://www.eukhost.com/kb/how-to-add-to-the-path-on-windows-10-and-windows-11/).



#### MacOS

1. Move the binary folder from `~/Applications/binary` to your desired location

2. Add the new path to your shell's configuration file:

   ```bash

   # For bash (edit ~/.bash_profile)

   export PATH="/your/custom/path:$PATH"

   

   # For zsh (edit ~/.zshrc)

   export PATH="/your/custom/path:$PATH"

   ```

3. Reload your shell configuration:

   ```bash

   # For bash

   source ~/.bash_profile

   

   # For zsh

   source ~/.zshrc

   ```



#### Linux

1. Move the binary folder from `~/.local/bin/binary` to your desired location

2. Add the new path to your shell's configuration file:

   ```bash

   # For bash (edit ~/.bashrc)

   export PATH="/your/custom/path:$PATH"

   

   # For zsh (edit ~/.zshrc)

   export PATH="/your/custom/path:$PATH"

   ```

3. Apply the changes:

   ```bash

   source ~/.bashrc   # for bash

   # or

   source ~/.zshrc    # for zsh

   ```



> [!IMPORTANT]

> After moving the binary folder, ensure that all executables (ffmpeg, ffprobe, ffplay) are present in the new location and have the correct permissions:

> - Windows: `.exe` extensions required

> - MacOS/Linux: Ensure files have execute permissions (`chmod +x filename`)

# Configuration



You can change some behaviors by tweaking the configuration file.



The configuration file is divided into several main sections:



## DEFAULT Settings



```json

{

    "root_path": "Video",

    "movie_folder_name": "Movie",

    "serie_folder_name": "TV",

    "map_episode_name": "%(tv_name)_S%(season)E%(episode)_%(episode_name)",

    "add_siteName": false,

    "disable_searchDomain": false,

    "not_close": false

}

```



- `root_path`: Directory where all videos will be saved

  

  ### Path examples:

  * Windows: `C:\\MyLibrary\\Folder` or `\\\\MyServer\\MyLibrary` (if you want to use a network folder)

  * Linux/MacOS: `Desktop/MyLibrary/Folder`

    `

`



- `movie_folder_name`: The name of the subdirectory where movies will be stored.

  * Can be changed from terminal with `--movie_folder_name`

    




- `serie_folder_name`: The name of the subdirectory where TV series will be stored.

  * Can be changed from terminal with `--serie_folder_name`

    




- `map_episode_name`: Template for TV series episode filenames



  ### Episode name usage:



  You can choose different vars:

  * `%(tv_name)` : Is the name of TV Show

  * `%(season)` : Is the number of the season

  * `%(episode)` : Is the number of the episode

  * `%(episode_name)` : Is the name of the episode

    `

`

  * Can be changed from terminal with `--map_episode_name`

    



    

- `add_siteName`: If set to true, appends the site_name to the root path before the movie and serie folders.

  * Can be changed from terminal with `--add_siteName true/false`

    




- `disable_searchDomain`: If set to true, disables the search for a new domain for all sites.

  * Can be changed from terminal with `--disable_searchDomain true/false`

    




- `not_close`: If set to true, keeps the program running after the download is complete.

  * Can be changed from terminal with `--not_close true/false`

    




    ### qBittorrent Configuration



    ```json

    {

        "config_qbit_tor": {

            "host": "192.168.1.59",

            "port": "8080",

            "user": "admin",

            "pass": "adminadmin"

        }

    }

    ```



    To enable qBittorrent integration, follow the setup guide [here](https://github.com/lgallard/qBittorrent-Controller/wiki/How-to-enable-the-qBittorrent-Web-UI).

>

> - Use different language codes

> - Support only a subset of these languages

> - Offer additional languages not listed here

>

> Check the specific site's available options if downloads fail.



> [!TIP]

> You can configure multiple languages by adding them to the lists:

>

> ```json

> "specific_list_audio": ["ita", "eng", "spa"],

> "specific_list_subtitles": ["ita", "eng", "spa"]

> ```



For the best viewing experience, we recommend using VLC Media Player:

- Supports all video formats and codecs

- Properly displays embedded subtitles

- Available for all major operating systems

- Free and open-source



You can download VLC Media Player from the [official website](https://www.videolan.org/vlc/).

# Examples of terminal usage



```bash

# Change video and audio workers

python test_run.py --default_video_worker 8 --default_audio_worker 8



# Set specific languages

python test_run.py --specific_list_audio ita,eng --specific_list_subtitles eng,spa



# Keep console open after download

python test_run.py --not_close true



# Disable domain search and add site name

python test_run.py --disable_searchDomain true --add_siteName true

```



# Docker



You can run the script in a docker container, to build the image just run



```

docker build -t streaming-community-api .

```



and to run it use



```

docker run -it -p 8000:8000 streaming-community-api

```



By default the videos will be saved in `/app/Video` inside the container, if you want to to save them in your machine instead of the container just run



```

docker run -it -p 8000:8000 -v /path/to/download:/app/Video streaming-community-api

```



### Docker quick setup with Make



Inside the Makefile (install `make`) are already configured two commands to build and run the container:



```

make build-container



# set your download directory as ENV variable

make LOCAL_DIR=/path/to/download run-container

```



The `run-container` command mounts also the `config.json` file, so any change to the configuration file is reflected immediately without having to rebuild the image.



# Telegram Usage



## Configuration



You need to create an .env file and enter your Telegram token 



and user ID to authorize only one user to use it



## .env Example:



```

TOKEN_TELEGRAM=IlTuo2131TOKEN$12D3Telegram

AUTHORIZED_USER_ID=12345678 

DEBUG=False

```



## Install Python Dependencies



```bash

pip install -r requirements.txt

```



## On Linux/MacOS:



```bash

python3 telegram_bot.py

```
