Modern framework for parsing m3u files.
- Parse playlists from a
String, local file, or any URL. - Capable of parsing large playlists with hundreds of thousands of media items.
- Sync/Async parsing.
- Season/Episode number extraction for TV show media items.
- Media kind extraction from URL path.
let parser = PlaylistParser()The playlist parser can parse a playlist from any source that conforms to the protocol PlaylistSource, by default: String, and URL.
let url = URL(string: "https://domain.com/link/to/m3u/file")
let playlist = try parser.parse(url)or
let url = Bundle.main.url(forResource: "playlist", withExtension: "m3u")!
let playlist = try parser.parse(url)or
let raw = """
#EXTM3U
#EXTINF:-1 tvg-id="DenHaagTV.nl",Den Haag TV (1080p)
http://wowza5.video-streams.nl:1935/denhaag/denhaag/playlist.m3u8
"""
let playlist = try parser.parse(raw)M3UKit also supports asynchronous parsing with a completion handler or with the new async/await API
parser.parse(url) { result in
switch result {
case .success(let playlist):
// consume playlist
case .failure(let error):
// handle error
}
}or
let playlist = try await parser.parse(url)M3U exposes one model; Playlist, with the following schema:
