The streams Json is missing content

[Buhos-Dev]

In the Json that returns https://iptv-org.github.io/api/streams.json you should put the url of the image of the transmitted channel and the name of the channel that is transmitted, it would be more comfortable for everyone to have that information in that API, thanks!

You can already get all this information from https://iptv-org.github.io/api/channels.json by channel ID.

More details: https://github.com/iptv-org/api#channels

The API https://iptv-org.github.io/api/channels.json does not have the streaming url, the ideal would be to have a single Json with all the information

You could create a fusion of both JSONs using the channel ID, which would result in an unified JSON containing all the different datas that you could use.

Using Python as an example, this would look like this :

import json

# Load the JSON files
with open('streams.json', 'r') as file1:
    data1 = json.load(file1)

with open('channels.json', 'r') as file2:
    data2 = json.load(file2)

# Create a dictionary to store the merged data
merged_data = {}

# Merge the data based on the common key "id"
for item1 in data1:
    id_value = item1['channel']
    merged_data[id_value] = item1
    for item2 in data2:
        if item2['id'] == id_value:
            merged_data[id_value].update(item2)

# Convert the merged dictionary back to a list
merged_list = list(merged_data.values())

# Write the merged data to a new JSON file
with open('merged_data.json', 'w') as merged_file:
    json.dump(merged_list, merged_file, indent=4)

How is the code executed, do I have to put all the files in the same folder or what? Could you give more details on how to do it???

1. The code is executed once you have saved the code in a Python file and given him a name. Just call Python with the command prompt as such : "python file.py" (example)

2. In the principle, you should have all the files in the same folder. It can also be edited to be directly usable (by using the requests library and downloading the necessary files off the iptv-org API).

3. Please specify the details you would want to know about.

I was just a little confused because there weren't many details but thanks to your code I was able to do it, it worked excellently, thanks friend

when I try to use the endpoint at: https://iptv-org.github.io/api/streams.json I keep getting a list with practically all items having an empty "channel" field so I don't have any way to match this list with the one from: https://iptv-org.github.io/api/channels.json. Any idea of what I'm doing wrong?
