NewPipe Extractor
NewPipe Extractor is a library for extracting things from streaming sites. It is a core component of NewPipe, but could be used independently.
Usage
NewPipe Extractor is available at JitPack's Maven repo.
If you're using Gradle, you could add NewPipe Extractor as a dependency with the following steps:
- Add
maven { url 'https://jitpack.io' }
to therepositories
in yourbuild.gradle
. - Add
compile 'com.github.TeamNewPipe:NewPipeExtractor:v0.11.0'
thedependencies
in yourbuild.gradle
. Replacev0.11.0
with the latest release.
Testing changes
To test changes quickly you can build the library locally. Using the local Maven repository is a good approach, here's a gist of how to use it:
- Add
mavenLocal()
in your projectrepositories
list (usually as the first entry to give priority above the others). - It's recommended that you change the
version
of this library (e.g.LOCAL_SNAPSHOT
). - Run gradle's
ìnstall
task to deploy this library to your local repository (using the wrapper, present in the root of this project:./gradlew install
) - Change the dependency version used in your project to match the one you chose in step 2 (
implementation 'com.github.TeamNewPipe:NewPipeExtractor:LOCAL_SNAPSHOT'
)
Tip for Android Studio users: After you make changes and run the
install
task, use the menu optionFile → "Sync with File System"
to refresh the library in your project.
