Cast torrent files using Google Cast API

Motivation

There's no season 5 of Brooklyn nine-nine on Netflix 👎

What's it

It lets you search for a movie or show using the OMDb API, then it try to find torrent files for it using the Popcorn API.

Once you select a torrent file, it will let you cast it to a chromecast.

It will try to donwload a subtitle automatically too.

This is just the frontend code, you will need the api too to make it work.

How to use it

Once you clone this repo and install it's dependencies, create a .env file with API_URL (the url where the api is running), then run yarn build then yarn start. That's it.

Limitations

Browsers

Currently it only works in Chrome since it uses the Google Cast API.

Subtitles

It only cares for pt-BR subtitles currently.

TODO

Make it a PWA? Add tests
