=head1 DESCRIPTION

StreamFinder accepts a webpage URL for a valid radio station, video, or podcast
/ episode URL on supported websites and returns the actual stream URL(s),
title, and cover art icon for that station / podcast / video.  The purpose is
that one needs one of these URLs in order to have the option to stream the
station / podcast / video in one's own choice of media player software rather
than using their web browser and accepting flash, ads, javascript, cookies,
trackers, web-bugs, and other crapware associated with that method of play.
The author created and uses his own custom all-purpose media player called
"Fauxdacious Media Player" (his custom forked version of the open-source
"Audacious Audio Player).  "Fauxdacious"
(L) incorporates this module via
a Perl helper-script to decode and play streams, along with their titles /
station names, and station / podcast / video icons, artists / channel names,
genres, and descriptions!

Please NOTE:  StreamFinder is a module, NOT a standalone application.  It is
designed to be used by other Perl applications.  To create your own very simple
application just to fetch stream data manually, simply grab the code in the
B section above, save it to an executable text file, ie.
I, and run it from the command line with a supported streaming
site URL as the argument.  You can then edit it to tailor it to your needs.

The currently-supported websites are:
podcasts.apple.com podcasts (L),
bitchute.com videos (L),
blogger.com videos (L),
brandnewtube.com and ugetube.com videos (L),
brighteon.com videos (L),
castbox.fm podcasts (L),
podcasts.google.com podcasts (L),
iheartradio.com radio stations and podcasts (L),
www.internetradio.com radio stations (L),
www.linktv.org videos (L),
onlineradiobox.com radio stations (L),
odysee.com videos (L),
podbean.com podcasts (L),
podcastaddict.com podcasts (L),
podchaser.com podcasts (L),
radio.net radio stations (L),
rcast.net radio stations (L),
rumble.com videos (L),
sermonaudio.com sermons: audio and video (L),
soundcloud.com (non-paywalled) songs (L),
spreaker.com podcasts (L),
tunein.com (non-paywalled) radio stations and podcasts
(L), vimeo.com videos (L),
youtube.com, et. al and other sites that youtube-dl supports
(L),
zeno.fm radio stations and podcasts (L),
and L - search any (other) webpage URL (not supported
by any of the other submodules) for streams.

NOTE:  StreamFinder::Podcastaddict is now considered depreciated and may be
removed in a later StreamFinder release as it now requires a specific valid
episode page to fetch streams from, as Podcastaddict.com has javascripted up
their podcast pages now to the point that it is no longer possible to obtain
a playlist or first episode from them via our scripts.

NOTE:  StreamFinder::Goodpods has been removed, as that site has redone itself
in javascript as to no longer be scrapable for streams.

NOTE:  For many sites, ie. Youtube, Vimeo, Apple, Spreaker, Castbox, Google,
etc. the "station" object actually refers to a specific video or podcast
episode, but functions the same way.

Each site is supported by a separate subpackage (StreamFinder::I),
which is determined and selected based on the URL argument passed to it when
the StreamFinder object is created.  The methods are overloaded by the selected
subpackage's methods.  An example would be B.

Please see the POD. documentation for each subpackage for important additional
information on options and features specific to each site / subpackage!

One or more playable streams can be returned for each station / video /
podcast, along with at least a "title" (station name / video or podcast episode
title) and an icon image URL ("iconurl" - if found).  Additional information
that MAY be fetched is a (larger?) banner image ("imageurl"), a (longer?)
"description", an "artist" / author, a "genre", and / or a "year" (podcasts,
videos, etc.), an AlbumArtist / channel URL, and possibly a second
icon image for the channel (podcasts and videos).  Some sites also provide
radio stations' FCC call letters ("fccid").  For icon and image URLs,
functions exist (getIconData() and getImageData()) to fetch the actual binary
data and mime type for downloading to local storage for use by your
application or preferred media player.  NOTE:  StreamFinder::Anystream is not
able to return much beyond the stream URLs it finds, but please see it's POD
documentation for details on what it is able to return.

If you have another streaming site that is not supported, first, make sure
you have B installed and see if B can
successfully fetch any streams for it.  If not, then please file a feature
request via email or the CPAN bug system, or (for faster service), provide a
Perl patch module / program source that can extract some or all of the
necessary information for streams on that site and I'll consider it!  The
easiest way to do this is to take one of the existing submodules, copy it to
"StreamFinder::I.pm", modify it (and the POD docs) to your
specific site's needs, test it on several of their pages (see the "SYNOPSIS"
code above), and send it to me (That's what I do when I want to add a
new site)!

=head1 SUBROUTINES/METHODS

=over 4

=item B(I [, I ])

Accepts a URL and creates and returns a new station, video, or
podcast object, or I if the URL is not a valid station or
no streams are found.

NOTE:  Depending on the type of site being queried, the "station
object" can be either a streaming station, a video, or a podcast,
but works the same way (method calls, arguments, etc.).

NOTE:  A full URL must be specified here, but if using any of the
subpackage modules directly instead, then either a full URL OR just
the station / video / podcast's site ID may be used!  Reason being
that this function parses the full URL to determine which subpackage
(site) module to use.

I can vary depending on the type of site that is
being queried.  One option common to all sites is I<-debug>, which
turns on debugging output.  A numeric option can follow specifying
the level (0, 1, or 2).  0 is none, 1 is basic, 2 is detailed.
Default:  B<1> (if I<-debug> is specified).  Warning: 2 will dump a ton
of output (mostly the HTML of the web page being parsed!

One specific option (I<-omit>, added as of v1.45) permits omitting
specific submodules which are currently installed from being considered.
For example, to NOT handle Youtube videos nor use the fallback
"Anystream" module, specify:  I<-omit> => I<"Youtube,Anystream">, which
will cause StreamFinder::Anystream and StreamFinder::Youtube to not be used
for the stream search.  Default is for all installed submodules to be
considered.  NOTE:  Omitting a module from being considered when seeking
to match the correct module by site URL does NOT prevent that
module from being invoked by a selected module for an embedded link, OR
in the case of StreamFinder::Youtube being omitted, will still be invoked,
if required or needed by a non-omitted module initially selected!

Another global option (applicable to all submodules) is the I<-secure>
option who's argument can be either 0 or 1 (I or I).  If 1,
then only secure ("https://") streams will be returned.  NOTE, it's
possible that some sites may only contain insecure ("http://") streams,
which won't return any streams if this option is specified.  Therefore,
it may be necessary, if setting this option globally, to set it to
zero in the config. files for those specific modules, if you determine
that to be the case (I have not tested all sites for that).  Default:
I<-secure> is 0 (false) - return all streams (http and https).

Any other options (including I<-debug>) will be passed to the submodule
(if any) that handles the URL you pass in, but note, submodules accept
different options and ignore ones they do not recognize.  Valid values
for some options can also vary across different submodules.  A better
way to change default options for one or more submodules is to set up
submodule configuration files for the ones you wish to change.

Additional options:

I<-hls_bandwidth> => "I"

Limit HLS (m3u8) streams that contain a list of other HLS streams of varying
BANDWIDTH values (in BITS per second) by selecting the highest bitrate stream
at or below the specified limit when I<$stream>->I is called.

DEFAULT I<-none-> (no limiting by bitrate).

I<-log> => "I"

Specify path to a log file.  If a valid and writable file is specified, A line
will be appended to this file every time one or more streams is successfully
fetched for a url.

DEFAULT I<-none-> (no logging).

I<-logfmt> specifies a format string for lines written to the log file.

DEFAULT "I<[time] [url] - [site]: [title] ([total])>".

The valid field I<[variables]> are:  [stream]: The url of the first/best stream
found.  [site]:  The site (submodule) name matching the webpage url.
[url]:  The url searched for streams.  [time]: Perl timestamp when the line was
logged.  [title], [artist], [album], [description], [year], [genre], [total],
[albumartist]:  The corresponding field data returned (or "I<-na->",
if no value).

=item $station->B(['playlist'])

Returns an array of strings representing all stream URLs found.
If I<"playlist"> is specified, then an extended m3u playlist is returned
instead of stream url(s).  NOTE:  For podcast sites, if an author / channel
page url is given, rather than an individual podcast episode's url, get()
returns the first (latest?) podcast episode found, and get("playlist") returns
an extended m3u playlist containing the urls, titles, etc. for all the podcast
episodes found on that page url from latest to oldest.

=item $station->B([I])

Similar to B() except it only returns a single stream representing
the first valid stream found.

Current options are:  I<"random">, I<"nopls">, and I<"noplaylists">.
By default, the first ("best"?) stream is returned.  If I<"random"> is
specified, then a random one is selected from the list of streams found.
If I<"nopls"> is specified, and the stream to be returned is a ".pls" playlist,
it is first fetched and the first entry (or a random entry if I<"random"> is
specified) is returned.  This is needed by Fauxdacious Mediaplayer.
If I<"noplaylists"> is specified, and the stream to be returned is a
"playlist" (either .pls or .m3u? extension), it is first fetched and the first
entry (or a random entry if I<"random"> is specified) in the playlist
is returned.

=item $station->B()

Returns the number of streams found for the station.

=item $station->B(['fccid'])

Returns the station's site ID (default), or station's FCC
call-letters ("fccid") for applicable sites and stations.

=item $station->B(['desc'])

Returns the station's title, (or long description, if "desc" specified).

NOTE:  Some sights do not support a separate long description field,
so if none found, the standard title field will always be returned.

=item $station->B(['artist'])

Returns the URL for the station's "cover art" icon image, if any.

Some video and podcast sites will also provide a separate artist/channel
icon.  If B<'artist'> is specified, this icon url is returned instead,
if any.

=item $station->B(['artist'])

Returns a two-element array consisting of the extension (ie. "png",
"gif", "jpeg", etc.) and the actual icon image (binary data), if any.
This makes it easy to download the image to local storage for use by
your preferred media player.

Some video and podcast sites will also provide a separate artist/channel
icon.  If B<'artist'> is specified, this icon's data is returned instead,
if any.

=item $station->B(['artist'])

Returns the URL for the station's "cover art" banner image, if any.

NOTE:  If no "banner image" (usually a larger image) is found,
the "icon image" URL will be returned.

Some video and podcast sites will also provide a separate artist/channel
image (usually larger).  If B<'artist'> is specified, this icon url is
returned instead, if any.

=item $station->B(['artist'])

Returns a two-element array consisting of the extension (ie. "png",
"gif", "jpeg", etc.) and the actual station's banner image
(binary data).  This makes it easy to download the image to
local storage for use by your preferred media player.

NOTE:  If no "banner image" (usually a larger image) is found,
the "icon image" data, if any, will be returned.

Some video and podcast sites will also provide a separate artist/channel
image (usually larger).  If B<'artist'> is specified, this icon's data is
returned instead, if any.

=item $station->B()

Returns the station / podcast / video's type (I).
(one of:  "Anystream", "Apple", "BitChute", "Blogger", "Youtube", etc. -
depending on the sight that matched the URL).

Some video and podcast sites will also provide a separate artist/channel
image (usually larger).  If B<'artist'> is specified, this icon url is
returned instead, if any.

=head1 CONFIGURATION FILES

The default root location directory for StreamFinder configuration files
is "~/.config/StreamFinder".  To use an alternate location directory,
specify it in the "I" environment variable, ie.:
B<$ENV{STREAMFINDER} = "/etc/StreamFinder">.

=over 4

=item ~/.config/StreamFinder/config

Optional text file for specifying various configuration options.
Each option is specified on a separate line in the formats below:
NOTE:  Do not follow the lines with a semicolon, comma, or any other
separator.  Non-numeric I should be surrounded with quotes, either
single or double.  Blank lines and lines beginning with a "#" sign as
their first non-blank character are ignored as comments.

'option' => 'value' [, ...]

'option' => ['value1', 'value2', ...] [, ...]

'option' => {'key1' => 'value1', 'key2' => 'value2', ...} [, ...]

and the options are loaded into a hash used by all sites
(submodules) that support them.  Valid options include
I<-debug> => [0|1|2] and most of the L options.

=item ~/.config/StreamFinder/I/config

Optional text file for specifying various configuration options
for a specific site (submodule, ie. "Youtube" for
StreamFinder::Youtube).  Each option is specified on a separate
line in the formats below:

'option' => 'value' [, ...]

'option' => ['value1', 'value2', ...] [, ...]

'option' => {'key1' => 'value1', 'key2' => 'value2', ...} [, ...]

and the options are loaded into a hash used only by the specific
(submodule) specified.  Valid options include
I<-debug> => [0|1|2] and most of the L options.

NOTE:  Options specified here override any specified in I<~/.config/StreamFinder/config>.

=back

NOTE:  Options specified in the options parameter list of the I
function will override those corresponding options specified in these files.
