lustpress

RESTful and experimental API for PornHub and other R18 websites

Lustpress was originally named Lust and Express (legacy name) and now runs on **Bun** + **Elysia**. The motivation of this project is carry an actionable data related to pornhub and other r18 sites with gather, similar design pattern, endpoint bindings, and consistent structure in mind.

However, most of these sites — such as pornhub, redtube, and others — do not provide official APIs or public resources that can be easily integrated into applications. As a result, developers often need to implement their own scraping logic, build multiple abstractions, and manually maintain integrations for each site. Lustpress aims to simplify this process by providing a unified interface for accessing data across multiple r18 sites. Instead of maintaining separate implementations, developers can rely on Lustpress to reduce complexity and development overhead. The current state of the service is **free to use**, meaning anonymous usage is allowed. No authentication is required, and **CORS is enabled** to support browser-based applications. ## The solution Don't make it long, make it short. All processed through single rest endpoint bindings ## Features - Aggregates data from multiple sites. - Provides a consistent and structured response format across all sources. - Extracted objects are normalized and reassembled to support extensibility. - Unified interface supporting **get**, **search**, and **random** methods. - Planned support for optional **JWT authentication** in future releases. - Primarily based on pure scraping techniques (with limited exceptions where required). ## Running tests Some tests may fail in CI environments because certain websites restrict or block automated requests originating from CI infrastructure and shared IP ranges, but trying to keep up | Site | Status | Get | Search | Random | Related | | --------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | --- | ------ | ------ | ------- | | `pornhub` | [![pornhub](https://github.com/sinkaroid/lustpress/workflows/Pornhub%20test/badge.svg)](https://github.com/sinkaroid/lustpress/actions/workflows/pornhub.yml) | `Yes` | `Yes` | `Yes` | `Yes` | | `xnxx` | [![xnxx](https://github.com/sinkaroid/lustpress/workflows/Xnxx%20test/badge.svg)](https://github.com/sinkaroid/lustpress/actions/workflows/xnxx.yml) | `Yes` | `Yes` | `Yes` | `Yes` | | `redtube` | [![redtube](https://github.com/sinkaroid/lustpress/workflows/Redtube%20test/badge.svg)](https://github.com/sinkaroid/lustpress/actions/workflows/redtube.yml) | `Yes` | `Yes` | `Yes` | `Yes` | | `xvideos` | [![xvideos](https://github.com/sinkaroid/lustpress/workflows/Xvideos%20test/badge.svg)](https://github.com/sinkaroid/lustpress/actions/workflows/xvideos.yml) | `Yes` | `Yes` | `Yes` | `Yes` | | `xhamster` | [![xhamster](https://github.com/sinkaroid/lustpress/workflows/Xhamster%20test/badge.svg)](https://github.com/sinkaroid/lustpress/actions/workflows/xhamster.yml) | `Yes` | `Yes` | `Yes` | `Yes` | | `youporn` | [![youporn](https://github.com/sinkaroid/lustpress/workflows/Youporn%20test/badge.svg)](https://github.com/sinkaroid/lustpress/actions/workflows/youporn.yml) | `Yes` | `Yes` | `Yes` | `Yes` | | `eporner` | [![Eporner test](https://github.com/sinkaroid/lustpress/actions/workflows/eporner.yml/badge.svg)](https://github.com/sinkaroid/lustpress/actions/workflows/eporner.yml) | `Yes` | `Yes` | `Yes` | `Yes` | | `txxx` | [![Txxx test](https://github.com/sinkaroid/lustpress/actions/workflows/txxx.yml/badge.svg)](https://github.com/sinkaroid/lustpress/actions/workflows/txxx.yml) | `Yes` | `Yes` | `Yes` | `Yes` | ## Prerequisites
NOTE: Bun 1.3.13 or higher
To handle several requests from each website, You will also need [Redis](https://redis.io/) for persistent caching, free tier is available on [Redis Labs](https://redislabs.com/), You can also choose another adapters as we using [keyv](https://github.com/jaredwray/keyv) Key-value storage with support for multiple backends. When you choosing your own adapter, all data must be stored with `` type. ## Installation Rename `.env.schema` to `.env` and fill the value with your own ```bash # default port PORT = 3000 # backend storage, default is redis, if not set it will consume memory storage REDIS_URL = redis://default:somenicepassword@redis-666.c10.us-east-6-6.ec666.cloud.redislabs.com:1337 # ttl expire cache (in X hour) EXPIRE_CACHE = 1 # you must identify your origin, if not set it will use default USER_AGENT = "lustpress/8.2.3-alpha Bun/1.3.13" ``` ### Docker docker pull ghcr.io/sinkaroid/lustpress:latest docker run -p 3000:3000 -d ghcr.io/sinkaroid/lustpress:latest ### Docker (adjust your own) ```bash docker run -d \ --name=lustpress \ -p 3028:3000 \ -e REDIS_URL='redis://default:somenicepassword@redis-666.c10.us-east-6-6.ec666.cloud.redislabs.com:1337' \ -e EXPIRE_CACHE='1' \ -e USER_AGENT='lustpress/8.2.3-alpha Bun/1.3.13' \ ghcr.io/sinkaroid/lustpress:latest ``` ### Manual git clone https://github.com/sinkaroid/lustpress.git - Install dependencies - `bun install` - Lustpress production - `bun run start:prod` - Lustpress testing and hot reload - `bun run start:dev` ## Tests Run the following commands to execute tests for each supported source: ```bash # Check whether all supported sites are available for scraping bun run test # Check whether ph and (maybe the others do..) do Solving challenge in their website bun run test:mock # Run tests for individual sources bun run test:pornhub bun run test:xnxx bun run test:redtube bun run test:xvideos bun run test:xhamster bun run test:youporn bun run test:eporner bun run test:txxx ``` ### Start the production server `bun run start:prod` ### Running development server `bun run start:dev` ### Generating playground like swagger from apidoc definition `bun run build:apidoc` > To running other tests, you can see object scripts in file `package.json` or modify the `lustpress.test.ts` according your needs ## Playground https://sinkaroid.github.io/lustpress -

Instead of relying on a headless browser (Playwright/Puppeteer), Lustpress solves this natively with zero external dependencies. **How it works:** - Fetch the index page and capture initial session cookies - Detect the `leastFactor` math challenge in the response HTML - Parse obfuscated variables (`p`, `s`) and conditional bitwise operations - Compute the correct `KEY` cookie value - Verify the solved cookie against the index - Cache and reuse cookies for subsequent requests, auto-refresh on expiry This approach runs in **< 1ms** compared to 5-10s with a headless browser, uses virtually no memory, and is fully **Docker-friendly** — no Chromium installation required. The solver logic lives in [`src/utils/ph-solver.ts`](src/utils/ph-solver.ts). If Pornhub changes its obfuscation pattern, update the regex patterns in that file. ## Frequently asked questions **Q: The website response is slow** > That's unfortunate, this repository was opensource already, You can host and deploy Lustpress with your own instance. Any fixes and improvements will updating to this repo. > **March 11, 2026**: We have discontinued providing public APIs and playground services due to ongoing abuse and excessive usage. To continue using Lustpress, please deploy and run your own self-hosted instance. ## Pronunciation `en_US` • **/lʌstˈprɛs/** — "lust" stand for this project and "press" for express. ## Legal This tool can be freely copied, modified, altered, distributed without any attribution whatsoever.
