Freetube: Display PeerTube search results

Created on 9 Oct 2020 · 3Comments · Source: FreeTubeApp/FreeTube

PeerTube is streaming videos peer-to-peer using WebRTC.

There now is a search engine: https://sepiasearch.org/

and one may install their own scraper, index and serve a search portal too, using the code https://framagit.org/framasoft/peertube/search-index

What would be interesting would be that Freetube sends the searched request to a PeerTube search API and displays the results among the results.

Since freetube doesn't have a peertube tab, I think it might be a good idea working on it. Maybe search results take less priority, but adding somewhere on the roadmap would be perfect.

You may mutualize with the NewPipe team to implement this once for both projects https://github.com/TeamNewPipe/NewPipe/issues/4461

I really support the idea of a Peertube tab (and potentially other video services)
