## Installation
It is pretty straight forward
```sh

npm install --save hlsdownloader
# or with yarn
yarn add hlsdownloader
# or pnpm
pnpm install hlsdownloader
```
## How to use
`destination` field is optional. If `destination` is not provided it just fetches the content from origin.
It can also be useful if you want to do content pre-fetching from CDN for your end viewers. If any `TS` or `m3u8`
variant download is failed it continues downloading others and reports after finishing.
It's simple as below with.
```js
import HLSDownloader from 'hlsdownloader';
const options = {
playlistURL: 'http://example.com/path/to/your/playlist.m3u8', // change it
destination: '/tmp', // change it (optional: default '')
concurrency: 10, // change it (optional: default = 1),
overwrite: true, // change it (optional: default = false)
// (optional: default = null
onData: function (data) {
console.log(data); // {url: "", totalItems: "", path: ""}
},
// (optional: default = null
onError: function (error) {
console.log(error); // { url: "", name: "", message: "human readable message of error" }
},
};
const downloader = new HLSDownloader(options);
downloader.startDownload().then(response => console.log(response));
```
> ℹ️ Check [example.js](example.js) for working example
```js
// on success
{
total: ,
playlistURL: 'your playlist url'
message: 'Downloaded successfully',
}
// on partial download
{
total: ,
playlistURL: 'your playlist url',
message: 'Download done with some errors',
errors: [
{
name: 'InvalidPlaylist',
message: 'Playlist parsing is not successful'
url: 'https://cnd.hls-server.test/playlist.m3u8'
}
] // items url that is skipped or could not downloaded for error
