Aerials Downloader for tvOS's wall papers

This Python script will download all the tvOS videos to the downloads folder.

This script also turns the Localizable.nocache.strings into a json file that is hosted here in the api folder.

entries.json is also avaliable under api/{release}/entries.json

These can be pulled using the following url: https://declan-fitzpatrick.github.io/aerials/api/{release}/{parsed|raw}/{lang}

Finally, a Docker container will serve the files (with CORS) on localhost:5050. Reverse proxy setup is left as an exercise to the reader.

running this script

Expected environment variables and their defaults:

ENV VAR	Description	Defaults, Options
SKIP_GENERATE_POI	skip the generation of points of interest files	default False
LOCALISE_BIZ_API_KEY	API key for your Loco project. Create project here docs	default None
TVOS_VERSION	the tvOS version to use for downloads	default 16
VIDEO_QUALITY	the tvOS quality to download	default "url-1080-H264", opts "url-1080-H264", "url-1080-HDR", "url-1080-SDR", "url-4K-HDR", "url-4K-SDR"
BW_LIMIT	Limit the video download to ~1MB/s	Default false

Run:

ENV_VAR=<value> python downloadAerials.py

"because i could throw .strings at them and download .json"

It has the same contents as raw, just split into the video title and time stamps.

raw:

{
    "VideoId_TS" : "description", 
}

parsed:

{
    "VideoId": {
        "TS": "description",
    }
}

or locally: plistutil on Linux, but this only generates xml

plistutil -i Localizable.nocache.strings -f xml -o results.xml

Mac uses:

plutil -convert xml1 Localizable.nocache.strings

The container is hosted in DockerHub:

docker-compose up
