LIBQUVI-SCRIPTS(7)
๐ LIBQUVI-SCRIPTS ๐
okay so bestie, welcome to libquvi-scripts(7) โ this is the manual page from the libquvi-scripts Manual, and it's basically the map of all the Lua goodness that libquvi runs on. sit down, get comfy, we're doing a tour ๐ธ
โจ NAME โจ
libquvi-scripts โ the whole overview of the library scripts, in one place. periodt.
๐ฆ DESCRIPTION ๐ฆ
libquvi-scripts is literally the home of the Lua scripts for libquvi that it uses to parse all the different properties โ like, the media properties, yk? it's the backstage crew making the whole show run ๐
๐ TYPES ๐
so there's not just one kind of script, there's a whole friend group of them. let's meet everybody ๐ซถ
๐ง Common scripts
the common scripts are modules that may be loaded from other scripts โ for example, the quvi-modules(7). they're the social butterflies of the script world.
these scripts are typically installed at:
$prefix/share/libquvi-scripts/$major_ver.$minor_ver/common/
๐ฅ Media scripts
the media scripts are the ones doing the actual work of parsing the media properties โ like the media stream URLs. there's usually a media script for each supported website, so yeah, they get around.
these scripts are typically installed at:
$prefix/share/libquvi-scripts/$major_ver.$minor_ver/media/
๐ Playlist scripts
the playlist scripts are responsible for parsing the playlist properties. and yep, same energy as the media scripts โ there's usually a playlist script for each supported website.
these scripts are typically installed at:
$prefix/share/libquvi-scripts/$major_ver.$minor_ver/playlist/
โญ Scan scripts
the scan scripts are used to scan an URL for embedded media URLs. little detectives fr fr ๐
these scripts are typically installed at:
$prefix/share/libquvi-scripts/$major_ver.$minor_ver/scan/
๐ Subtitlte scripts
not me typing "Subtitlte" โ that's literally what the page says, bestie. we respect the original spelling in this house ๐
the subtitle scripts are responsible for retrieving subtitle data for the media, and for exporting that data to another format โ e.g. SubRip. bilingual icon behavior honestly.
these scripts are typically installed at:
$prefix/share/libquvi-scripts/$major_ver.$minor_ver/subtitle/
$prefix/share/libquvi-scripts/$major_ver.$minor_ver/subtitle/export/
๐ Utility scripts
the utility scripts are used by libquvi to perform misc. tasks โ like parsing the file extension from a content-type, or converting HTML entities to UTF-8 characters. small but mighty, the unpaid interns of the operation ๐
these scripts are typically installed at:
$prefix/share/libquvi-scripts/$major_ver.$minor_ver/util/
๐ธ ENVIRONMENT ๐ธ
LIBQUVI_SCRIPTS_VERBOSEโ when it's defined, it enables the output from any libquvi scripts using the debug facility (thequvi/debugmodule). so if you want the scripts to spill the tea about what they're doing, this is your girl โจ
