Iptv Proxy

Description

Iptv-proxy is a project to proxy a m3u file, and all its tracks.

M3U

M3U service convert an iptv m3u file into a web proxy server.

It points all the original tracks to the proxied tracks. The code converts all lines in playlist that are URLs. It also attempts to convert any relative paths in a playlist.

WARNING: This can proxy any URL

This implementation iptv-proxy can proxy literally any URL due to how it was implemented. This is insecure. The URLs are simply base64 encoded when written to the playlist, and then later decoded and proxied. This seemed the simplest mechanism due to some playlists being nested multiple levels.

You should aim to keep this as closed off as possible, if you can, only run on localhost.

M3u Example

Original iptv m3u file

#EXTM3U
#EXTINF:-1 tvg-ID="examplechanel1.com" tvg-name="chanel1" tvg-logo="http://ch.xyz/logo1.png" group-title="USA HD",CHANEL1-HD
http://iptvexample.net:1234/12/test/1
#EXTINF:-1 tvg-ID="examplechanel2.com" tvg-name="chanel2" tvg-logo="http://ch.xyz/logo2.png" group-title="USA HD",CHANEL2-HD
http://iptvexample.net:1234/13/test/2
#EXTINF:-1 tvg-ID="examplechanel3.com" tvg-name="chanel3" tvg-logo="http://ch.xyz/logo3.png" group-title="USA HD",CHANEL3-HD
http://iptvexample.net:1234/14/test/3
#EXTINF:-1 tvg-ID="examplechanel4.com" tvg-name="chanel4" tvg-logo="http://ch.xyz/logo4.png" group-title="USA HD",CHANEL4-HD
http://iptvexample.net:1234/15/test/4

What M3U proxy IPTV do

• convert channels url to new endpoints
• convert original m3u file with new routes pointing to the proxy

Start proxy server example

iptv-proxy --playlists mylist=http://example.com/get.php?username=user&password=pass&type=m3u_plus&output=m3u8 \
             --port 8080 \
             --hostname proxyexample.com

This gives you a new m3u playlist on the endpoint /mylist.m3u in our example

http://proxyexample.com:8080/mylist.m3u

All the new routes pointing on your proxy server

#EXTM3U
#EXTINF:-1 tvg-ID="examplechanel1.com" tvg-name="chanel1" tvg-logo="http://ch.xyz/logo1.png" group-title="USA HD",CHANEL1-HD
http://proxyexample.com:8080/mylist/12/test/1?username=test&password=passwordtest
#EXTINF:-1 tvg-ID="examplechanel2.com" tvg-name="chanel2" tvg-logo="http://ch.xyz/logo2.png" group-title="USA HD",CHANEL2-HD
http://proxyexample.com:8080/mylist/13/test/2?username=test&password=passwordtest
#EXTINF:-1 tvg-ID="examplechanel3.com" tvg-name="chanel3" tvg-logo="http://ch.xyz/logo3.png" group-title="USA HD",CHANEL3-HD
http://proxyexample.com:8080/mylist/14/test/3?username=test&password=passwordtest
#EXTINF:-1 tvg-ID="examplechanel4.com" tvg-name="chanel4" tvg-logo="http://ch.xyz/logo4.png" group-title="USA HD",CHANEL4-HD
http://proxyexample.com:8080/mylist/15/test/4?username=test&password=passwordtest

Installation

Download lasted release

Or

% go install in root repository

With Docker

Prerequisite

• Add an m3u URL in docker-compose.yml or add local file in iptv folder
• Expose same container port as the --port flag

Start

docker-compose sample:

version: "3"
services:
  iptv-proxy:
    build:
      context: .
      dockerfile: Dockerfile
    volumes:
      # If your are using local m3u file instead of m3u remote file
      # put your m3u file in this folder
      - ./iptv:/root/iptv
    container_name: "iptv-proxy"
    restart: on-failure
    commad: --playlists mylist=http://proxyexample.com:8080/mylist.m3u
    expose:
      - 8080

Addition arguments you can add to the command section:

Usage of iptv-proxy:
  -hostname string
        Hostname or IP to expose the IPTVs endpoints (default "localhost")
  -playlists value
        List of M3U files to proxy. Should be key pair values, e.g. --m3u bbc=http://example.com/playlist.m3u. They key will be prefixed with all the URLs generates.
  -port int
        Port to expose the IPTVs endpoints (default 8080)
