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:

1. Redis - You can get a free hosting at https://upstash.com/
2. PostgresSQL - You can get a free hosting at https://planetscale.com/
3. Node.js (>=v16) - You can install it at https://nodejs.org/en/download/
4. Pnpm - You can install it at https://pnpm.io/

1. Install dependencies with pnpm install
2. Create a .env file 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}

3. Initialize prisma with pnpm prisma:generate
4. Run pnpm run dev and the application will start at desginated port (default 3000 if not explicitly set)

1. Run docker pull enime/api:1.0
2. Plug the environment variables in (If you don't know how to do this please Google)

1. Refer to docker-compose.yml in 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 ~800MB of RAM (spikes to ~2.5GB when intensively scraping) and <15% of CPU (80% when intensively scraping) while keeping track of ~2000 anime
