PHP code for M3U file REST API endpoint

This PHP code creates a REST API endpoint that returns JSON data from an M3U file based on a GET request that searches for a given string in the name field.

Usage

1. Save the PHP code as a file on your server (e.g. api.php).
2. Edit the $m3u_file_path variable to point to the location of your M3U file.
3. Call the endpoint using a URL with the search string as a query parameter, e.g. http://example.com/api.php?search=bein.
4. The endpoint will return a JSON object that contains the name and link fields for all entries in the M3U file that match the search string.

JSON output

The endpoint returns a JSON object with the following structure:

{ "results": [ { "name": "TR: CHANNEL NAME 1", "link": "https://example.com:443/111111/11111/112180" }, { "name": "USA: CHANNEL NAME", "link": "https://example.com:443/111111/11111/112180" }, ... ] }

The results field contains an array of objects, each representing a single entry in the M3U file that matches the search string. Each object has a name field, which contains the name of the channel, and a link field, which contains the link to the channel's stream.
