Added:

• Implemented caching for AppleTV's storefront configuration data, which should reduce the amount of requests used when scraping multiple AppleTV URLs from the same storefront.

• Updated the CLI output to utilize logs and print with colors according to log-level.

2.4.0 [2023-05-23]

Added:

• iTunes links will now redirect to AppleTV and scrape metadata from there, as AppleTV has additional and more accurate metadata.
• Improved error messages to be more informative and case-specific:
  • If a movie is a pre-order and has no available playlist, a proper error message will be printed with its release date (if available).
  • If trying to scrape AppleTV+ content or series (which aren't currently supported), a proper error will be printed.

Changes:

• A major refactor to the code, to make it more modular and allow for easier development of new features in the future.
• Multiple changes (with some breaking changes) to the config file:
  • The downloads.format setting is deprecated, and replaced by the subtitles.convert-to-srt setting.
  • The downloads.merge-playlists setting is deprecated, with no replacement.
    If an AppleTV link has multiple playlists, they will be downloaded separately.
  • The downloads.user-agent setting is deprecated, with no replacement.
    The user-agent used by the scraper, will be used for downloads as well.
  • The scraping config category no longer exists, and is replaced by a scrapers category, which has a sub-category with settings for each scraper (for example, a scrapers.itunes sub-category).
• Old config paths that were previously deprecated are no longer supported and will no longer work.
  The updated config settings can be found in the example config.

Notes:

• This release includes a major rewrite of the code, which may have introduced new bugs to some core features. If you encountered one, please report it.
• Minimum supported Python version bumped to 3.8.
• beautifulsoup4 and lxml packages are no longer required or used.
