What is a provider?

Providers are normal Kodi script addons and thus can be installed/updated/distributed just like any other addon. However, a provider must follow a set of rules:

• The provider name must follow the format script.flix.{name}, otherwise it won't be discovered.
• Provide a xbmc.python.script extension point: see this.
• Implement the Provider API: see flix.provider.Provider.

See script.flix.dummy, a dummy provider mainly used for testing providers integration.

Installation

The recommended way of installing this addon is through its repository. This way, any updates will be automatically installed.

Although not recommended, one can install the addon without installing its repository. To do so, get the latest release from github. Please note that, if there are any additional dependencies, they won't be resolved unless the repository is installed.
