history
Project history and usage
CineCLI is a Python terminal movie browser that searches YTS, displays movie details, and launches magnet links or downloads torrent files.
Project history
The official README presents CineCLI as a fast, cross-platform, minimal terminal app built with Python, Typer, Rich, Requests, and the YTS API. Its repository includes Python packaging metadata and Nix flake files.
Adoption history
Distribution is split across Python packaging, Homebrew, Nix flake usage, and source installs. The README documents pip install, nix run/profile commands, and editable source installs; Homebrew packages version 0.1.2 from the PyPI source distribution.
How it is used
Documented commands include cinecli search, cinecli watch, and cinecli interactive. CineCLI delegates magnet handling to the operating system's registered magnet-link handler, such as qBittorrent or Transmission.
Why package nerds care
CineCLI is package-nerd interesting as a young Python CLI that reached several distribution channels quickly: PyPI, Homebrew, Nix flake usage, and GitHub source installs. It also shows the current pattern of terminal apps leaning on Rich and Typer for polished CLI UX.
