Installation
If you are using a linux distribution with acess to the AUR, simply install the kyoo-bin package. COMMING SOON. The package is not published on the AUR yet but you can built it easily with makepkg. To do so, clone the repo & run makepkg -i inside the install/aur directory.
If you are running another linux distribution or macos, you will need to build the package from source. To do that, look here.
If you are on windows, you can't install Kyoo for now. (Everything should work fine except for the transcoder. I haven't made the pipeline for MSVC).
Repositories
This is the main repository for Kyoo. Here, you will find all the server's code, the build process & the login page.
In the Kyoo.WebApp repository, you will find the code of the web app (created usint angular).
In the Kyoo.Transcoder repository, you will find the C code that handle transcoding, transmuxing & subtitles/codecs extractions from media files.
Both of theses repository are needed to fully build Kyoo, when you clone this repository you should use the --recurse argument of git like so: git clone https://github.com/AnonymusRaccoon/Kyoo --recurse.
Development & Build
To develop for Kyoo, you will need the .NET 5.0 SDK, node & npm for the webapp and cmake & gcc for the transcoder.
You will also need a running postgresql instance with a user named kyoo (you can create a user with this command: sudo -u postgres createuser -d kyoo)
To run the development server, simply open the .sln file with your favorite C# IDE (like Jetbrain's Rider or Visual Studio) and press run or you can use the CLI and use the dotnet run -p Kyoo command.
To pack the application, run the dotnet publish -c Release -o <build_path> Kyoo command. This will build the server, the webapp and the transcoder and output files in the <build_path> directory.
Plugins
You can create plugins for Kyoo. To do that, create a C# Library project targetting the .Net Core 5 and install the Kyoo.Common package and implement the IPlugin interface.
You can create Tasks which can be started manually or automatically at startup or every X hours. You can also create metadata providers that will be used to get informations about shows, seasons, episodes & people. You can find an exemple of metadata provider here.
