IPTV XML CLEANER

A tool used to remove unnecessary channels and programs from IPTVBoss's exhaustive Electronic program guide. It uses xmlstarlet to parse through and select relevant info from CANADA and USA, then gathers the data in a new filtered XML which is exposed for the Ministra service by using a combination of Lighttpd and Nginx Proxy Manager.

USAGE

IPTV XML Cleaner runs automatically on a fixed schedule and exposes the resulting filtered XML file at leanepg.targo.ca. iptv-xml-cleaner has a docker-compose file that starts it up in tandem with a targo-lighttpd container.
