Enime API is an open source API service for developers to access anime info (as well as their video sources)
To deploy Enime API, you need following services:
- Redis - You can get a free hosting at https://upstash.com/
- PostgresSQL - You can get a free hosting at https://planetscale.com/
- Node.js (>=v16) - You can install it at https://nodejs.org/en/download/
- Pnpm - You can install it at https://pnpm.io/
- Install dependencies with
pnpm install - Create a
.envfile at the root of the project with the following properties:
PORT={the port that application is going to run on}
DATABASE_URL={the postgres database connection url}
REDIS_HOST={Redis host}
REDIS_PORT={Redis port}
REDIS_PASSWORD={Redis password}
- Initialize prisma with
pnpm prisma:generate - Run
pnpm run devand the application will start at desginated port (default 3000 if not explicitly set)
- Run
docker pull enime/api:1.0 - Plug the environment variables in (If you don't know how to do this please Google)
- Refer to
docker-compose.ymlin the project root to proceed
- We use Discord for quick suggestions & bug reports, please join here
- Do you download the videos yourself / is your API subject to DMCA compliant
- No, Enime API never downloads the video from any source provider, only link will be returned from the response hence it is completely not subject to DMCA compliant
- Enime API tries to only scrape anime that has necessity of being scraped through a semi-sophisticated algorithm, resulting in its capacity to keep track of thousands of anime at the same time with high performance.
- On average, Enime API only uses ~300MB of RAM (spikes to ~1.3GB when intensively scraping) and <15% of CPU (80% when intensively scraping) while keeping track of ~6000 anime
