# NewPipe Extractor

[![CI](https://github.com/TeamNewPipe/NewPipeExtractor/actions/workflows/ci.yml/badge.svg?branch=dev&event=schedule)](https://github.com/TeamNewPipe/NewPipeExtractor/actions/workflows/ci.yml) [![JIT Pack Badge](https://jitpack.io/v/TeamNewPipe/NewPipeExtractor.svg)](https://jitpack.io/#TeamNewPipe/NewPipeExtractor) [JDoc](https://teamnewpipe.github.io/NewPipeExtractor/javadoc/) • [Documentation](https://teamnewpipe.github.io/documentation/)

NewPipe Extractor is a library for extracting things from streaming sites. It is a core component of [NewPipe](https://github.com/TeamNewPipe/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:

1. Add `maven { url 'https://jitpack.io' }` to the `repositories` in your `build.gradle`.
2. Add `implementation 'com.github.TeamNewPipe:NewPipeExtractor:INSERT_VERSION_HERE'` to the `dependencies` in your `build.gradle`. Replace `INSERT_VERSION_HERE` with the [latest release](https://github.com/TeamNewPipe/NewPipeExtractor/releases/latest).
3. If you are using tools to minimize your project, make sure to keep the files below, by e.g. adding the following lines to your proguard file:
 ```
## Rules for NewPipeExtractor
-keep class org.schabi.newpipe.extractor.timeago.patterns.** { *; }
-keep class org.mozilla.javascript.** { *; }
-keep class org.mozilla.classfile.ClassFileWriter
-dontwarn org.mozilla.javascript.tools.**
```

**Note:** To use NewPipe Extractor in Android projects with a `minSdk` below 33, [core library desugaring](https://developer.android.com/studio/write/java8-support#library-desugaring) with the `desugar_jdk_libs_nio` artifact is required.

### Testing changes

To test changes quickly you can build the library locally. A good approach would be to add something like the following to your `settings.gradle`:

```groovy
includeBuild('../NewPipeExtractor') {
    dependencySubstitution {
        substitute module('com.github.TeamNewPipe:NewPipeExtractor') with project(':extractor')
    }
}
```

Another approach would be to use the local Maven repository, here's a gist of how to use it:

1. Add `mavenLocal()` in your project `repositories` list (usually as the first entry to give priority above the others).
2. It's _recommended_ that you change the `version` of this library (e.g. `LOCAL_SNAPSHOT`).
3. 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`)
4. 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 option `File → "Sync with File System"` to refresh the library in your project.
