Create script for making podcast feed #8

Closed solarce closed 11 years ago

solarce commented 11 years ago

Script will

  1. Scrape youtube feed and download only audio from hangops youtube videos
  2. Create mp3s and store them somewhere, s3?
  3. generate an rss feed that's correct for an mp3 podcast
  4. profit?

Should run as a cron job?

what formats do you want the feeds to support?

I have code to pull from the Hangops Channel the videos and I also have code that can convert most video formats to other video and/or audio formats.

Do you want this to be an iTunes style feed or a more stock Atom/RSS?

What I will do is get the youtube -> feed setup with the basic video stuff and pull from Redis the metadata required for RSS feeds that may not be present in the youtube data and then point you to a url on the server so you can look at it. I'll work on that now.

Lets just start with iTunes style and mp3 and see if people ask for more

k, got the code to pull from youtube the hangops video feed and run thru looking for new entries. it does this by comparing the youtube code for each item in the feed against a hangops:youtube redis set.

when a new one is found, it will store the metadata and also trigger a download of the flv so that it can convert it to mp3. I need to finish the itunes rss feed file and push that to the server.

this is what I have running now:

cronjob running every 2 hours looking for new youtube videos if found: pull down video and convert to mp3 generate video rss feed file generate audio rss feed file
