Getting Started

1. Install Dependencies

npm install

2. Set Up MySQL

(Setting up a database is not necessary if you only want to launch streamium locally and watch content)

1. Install MySQL if not already installed:

# Ubuntu/Debian
sudo apt install mysql-server

# macOS with Homebrew
brew install mysql

2. Start MySQL service:

# Ubuntu/Debian
sudo systemctl start mysql

# macOS
brew services start mysql

3. Create database and user:

# Log into MySQL as root
sudo mysql

# Create database and user (in MySQL prompt)
CREATE DATABASE streamium;
CREATE USER 'streamium'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'password';
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON streamium.* TO 'streamium'@'localhost';
FLUSH PRIVILEGES;
exit;

3. Configure Environment

1. Copy the example environment file:

cp .env.example .env

2. Update the .env file with your settings:

# Database - update with your MySQL credentials
DATABASE_URL="mysql://user:password@localhost:port/db"

# Authentication - generate a secure random string
JWT_SECRET="your-jwt-secret"

# TMDB API - get from https://www.themoviedb.org/settings/api
TMDB_API_KEY="your-tmdb-api-key"
TMDB_API_URL="https://api.themoviedb.org/3"

# Streaming Providers
VIDSRC_BASE_URL="https://vidsrc.cc/v2/embed"
VIDSRC_PRO_BASE_URL="https://vidsrc.pro/embed"
EMBEDSU_BASE_URL="https://embed.su/embed"

4. Initialize Database with Prisma

1. Generate Prisma Client:

npx prisma generate

2. Run migrations to create database tables:

npx prisma migrate dev

3. (Optional) Create an admin user:

# Log into MySQL
mysql -u streamium -pstreamium123 streamium

# Create admin user (in MySQL prompt)
INSERT INTO users (username, email, passwordHash, isAdmin, createdAt, updatedAt)
VALUES ('admin', 'admin@example.com', '$2b$10$BK2yg8osv06HgfAiUoKQhu4zHNY5svt.uBuovXWBuM5JyPYkYZxlO', true, NOW(), NOW());
exit;

# Default admin password is 'admin123', generate a new one with bcrypt.

5. Start Development Server

npm run dev

The application will be available at http://localhost:5173

Troubleshooting

1. If you get MySQL connection errors:

   • Verify MySQL is running: sudo systemctl status mysql
   • Check credentials in .env file
   • Ensure database exists: mysql -u user -ppassword -e "SHOW DATABASES;"

2. If Prisma migration fails:

   • Check DATABASE_URL in .env
   • Try resetting database: npx prisma migrate reset
   • Check Prisma logs: npx prisma migrate status
