How to create custom sources based on the upstream

[HerbertHe]

The current version of iptv-sources supports create custom sources based on the upstream by yourself.

No matter if you deploy with docker or nodejs, it is very easy to meet the goal.

You can follow the steps:

Deploy with docker

First, you need to run the container with volume

docker run -v <host-config-dir-path>:/app/config iptv-sources

Then, you just need to add a new custom.json file in <host-config-dir-path>.

Save, and run docker exec -d iptv-sources /bin/sh ./update-sources.sh.

Deploy with nodejs

Make a new directory config in the project root path, add a new custom.json file.

Save, and run yarn m3u.

How to write the custom.json file

The template of custom.json file as followed:

{
    "rules": [
        {
            "upstream": "",
            "exclude": [],
            "include": [],
            "append": [
                {
                    "name": "<channel name>",
                    "url": "<url>",
                    "extinf": "<channel tvg information>"
                }
            ],
            "replacer": {
              "extinf": <same as url>,
              "url": [
                    {

能否完整的写一个“custom.json”，这样，我们这些小白用户就能简单的删减或者替换；现在语法格式不太懂，只能按照上面的格式填写，不知道每一个具体数值后面直接跨行还是需要逗号隔开。
希望大神支持一下。最后的重命名在哪里。

日志显示custom.json的任务执行完成了，但是找不到输出路径，请问该设置哪个参数就出来了。
