Setup

Run npm install under the client and server directories
In ./config.yml, set the media paths, and specify a working API key for TMDb API and Spotify Web API

# Server-side configs
movies:
  path  : '/path/to/movies/directory'
  api   : 'api.themoviedb.org/3'
  key   : '<api_key>'
music:
  path  : '/path/to/music/directory'
  api   : 'api.spotify.com/v1'
  key   : '<access_token>'
tv:
  path  : '/path/to/tv/directory'
  api   : 'api.themoviedb.org/3'
  key   : '<api_key>'

If you dont have keys, you can request API authorization from Spotify at https://developer.spotify.com/documentation/web-api/, and TMDb at https://developers.themoviedb.org/3/getting-started/introduction

Naming conventions

Your media must appear in the path set by config.yml
🎥 Movies

<movies_path>  
 - (subdirectory)?  
   - (movie_file_name <TMDb-movie-ID>) (.mp4|.mkv)

🎵 Music

<music_path>  
 - (album_directory_name <Spotify-album-ID>)  
   - ((<disc_number>-)?<track_number> track_file_name) (.mp3|.flac)

Tracks not found on Spotify can be put in a directory titled Unknown Album sans disc/ track number

<music_path>  
 - Unknown Album  
   - (track_file_name) (.mp3|.flac)

📺 TV

<tv_path>  
 - (tv_show_directory_name <TMDb-tv-ID>)  
   - (S<season_number>E<episode_number> episode_file_name) (.mp4|.mkv)

Generating metadata

Server requires <media>.json file data at startup. Initial json state should be empty

./movies.json, ./music.json, ./tv.json
{
  "movies": [], "music": [], "tv": []
}

From the base directory, run yarn start-dev to start homehost at http://localhost:5000/
By default, express port is 5000, webpack-dev-server is on 3000
On the server, call /api/generate once. Wait for the async call to finish and save
There is no 'watch' or 'hot reload' for server media. Adding or changing media files requires a json reset and rerunning /api/generate
NOTE nodemon will restart to file changes and interrupt async. Use node server instead for generating metadata.

Run

From the base directory, run yarn start
