jozamudi 2c203990bc move server code into server/, update docs

- app.py + upstream.py -> server/ (relative import, __init__.py)
- static/ resolved relative to repo root, works from any CWD
- watch history migrated to server/data/history.json
- README.md: quick start, features, layout, dev notes
- SPEC.md: marked implemented, updated endpoints/run/deviations
- ignore *.tar.gz (local curl-impersonate download at repo root)

Raw Blame History

ani-web

Web front-end for the ani-cli workflow: search, browse, and stream anime in the browser via anidb.app.

Quick start

uv venv .venv
uv pip install --python .venv/bin/python -r requirements.txt
./run.sh

Open http://localhost:8321. run.sh restarts cleanly if the server is already running; logs go to server.log.

Features

Search with poster grid, detail view with synopsis + season tabs
HLS playback (vendored hls.js), browser ABR across 1080/720/360p
Dub/sub toggle
Autoplays the first episode (or resumes the last watched one); if the browser blocks autoplay, a "click to play" overlay appears
Server-persisted watch history (server/data/history.json): watch position saved every ~10s, resume where you left off, top-5 "recently played" on the home page — shared across browsers and devices

Layout

server/   FastAPI app (app.py) + anidb.app fetchers (upstream.py)
          upstream.py is the ONLY Cloudflare-facing code
static/   front-end: index.html, app.js, style.css, hls.min.js (vendored)
run.sh    launch/restart the server
SPEC.md   design + the verified anidb.app data flow

Dev notes

anidb.app is behind Cloudflare; all upstream requests use curl_cffi Chrome TLS impersonation. If that ever stops working, everything is isolated in server/upstream.py.
The video CDN sends no CORS headers, so playback goes through the backend HLS proxy (/stream/{token}), which rewrites playlist URIs.
python server/upstream.py runs a self-check of the fetchers (search → details → episodes → dub stream for Chainsaw Man).
Episode titles are not available: anidb's episode API only returns {id, number, number2, filler}. Adding titles needs a free MyAnimeList API key.
