How to convert from m3u8 to project json format?

[pvonmoradi]

Do you have a script to convert a m3u8 link which lists channels with metadata info (tvg-logo, group-title, etc) to the json format used in your project?

Our "generate.js" file contain a function that generates a JSON :

Thanks. Specifically, I think in your pipeline, there is a method to convert "amalgamated links" like https://iptv-org.github.io/iptv/index.country.m3u to a channels.json. Do you know exactly what steps should I take to input the mentioned link and get a channels.json?

I'll call @freearhey to better inform you about this subject. He's the one who created and in charge of all the scripts of this repository. He'll be able to explain it better than I do.

Playlists are parsed using the iptv-playlist-parser package.

@freearhey Thanks. Still, there should be another script to convert iptv-playlist-parser's output to project json...

It takes place in scripts/parser.js
