About The Project

Overview

SPY-CLI is a versatile command-line interface (CLI) tool designed to provide an easy and direct way to browse and stream a wide variety of media content, including Movies, TV Shows, Anime, Kdramas, C-dramas, and more. It is designed to work across multiple operating systems such as Windows, macOS, Linux, iOS, and Android.

Features

  • Cross-Platform Compatibility: Runs smoothly on multiple platforms, including desktop OSs like Windows, macOS, Linux, and mobile OSs like iOS and Android.
  • Versatile Media Player Support: Integrates with popular media players like MPV for most platforms and VLC for iOS to ensure high compatibility and user-friendly media playback.
  • Ease of Use: Designed to be straightforward with a simple command line interface that does not require a graphical user interface.
  • Open Source: The entire codebase is open for contributors to review, modify, and enhance, fostering a community-driven development process.

How It Works

SPY-CLI interacts with a backend API that serves as a bridge between the CLI tool and the media content providers. The tool fetches media links through the API and streams them directly using the specified media player installed on the user's device.

API Integration

For full functionality, SPY-CLI requires connection to the 'spy-cli-api', a dedicated backend API designed to handle requests and serve media content links. For more details on the API, visit the SPY-CLI API repository.

Inspiration

The creation of SPY-CLI was heavily inspired by other CLI-based media streaming tools such as ani-cli and mov-cli, which provide similar functionalities for specific niches within the media streaming domain.

Future Plans

  • Enhanced Content Catalog: Plans to expand the variety and sources of content available through SPY-CLI.
