epg-info-docker

This repo builds and Docker image of iptv-org/epg. The purpose is to make the deployment easier and more suitable for different environments.

The original repository of this image is hosted on https://git.claeyscloud.com/david/epg-info-docker.
A public mirror is available at https://github.com/davidclaeysquinones/epg-info-docker.

Dependencies

The image is based on node:21-alpine in order to be more lightweight. The pm2 and serve packages are used in order to run the application in the container.

Docker image

Paths

Channels file

An example channels.xml is included by default in the image.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<channels>
  <channel site="movistarplus.es" lang="es" xmltv_id="24Horas.es" site_id="24H">24 Horas</channel>
  ...
</channels>

However if you want to configure your own channels you need to provide your own configuration file.
You can do this by creating a mapping in the /config folder.

Custom fixes

Through the ENABLE_FIXES variable custom provider fixes can be applied to the container. By default some fixes are available. These fixes have been validated before being added to this repo. However this option is disabled by default since you might only want to run the unmodified source. If you have suggestions or a problem with them please submit an issue.

This the list of the provided custom fixes :

Provider	Author	Status
movistarplus.es	davidclaeysquinones	PR pending approval
pickx.be	davidclaeysquinones	PR pending approval
telenet.tv	davidclaeysquinones	PR merged since commit fd382db
web.magentatv.de	klausellus-wallace	PR pending approval

If for some reason you want to include your own provider fixes this is possible by creation a mapping in the /fixes folder.
The expected structure is /fixes/provider_name/provider_name.config.js.
It is recommended that you take existing provider code as a base for your customisations.

Versions

This image is bound to the content of the iptv-org/epg repository. In the underlying list you can see to which commit each version of the docker image is bound.

Normally when a change is made in the source repository the documentation is updated and a new tag is created in this repository. This is completely normal since the source repository is only cloned during the build process of the docker image.

Sometimes a new version of this image will be bound to the same source commit. This will happen when improvements are made to the image.
