A Python3 web application that assist radio speakers in recording their shows.

|
|

Meant to be simple to install and to maintain.

|

|
|
|
It basically takes a directory with the continuous recording and create new
|
|
|
|
|
files "cutting/pasting" with ffmpeg.

Features
|
|
|
|
|
=========
|
|
|
|
|
|
2021-08-24 23:21:31 +02:00
|
|
|
* little system dependencies: python3 and ffmpeg
|
2013-12-13 17:59:46 +01:00
|
|
|
* The interface is extremely simple to use
|
2019-11-16 01:57:40 +01:00
|
|
|
* Supports nested recording (ie: to record an interview inside of a whole
|
2013-12-13 17:59:46 +01:00
|
|
|
show)
|
|
|
|
|
* There is no user system: any user opening the website will see the complete
|
|
|
|
|
status of the applications. There is, also, nothing stored in cookie or
|
|
|
|
|
similar mechanisms. This means that recording a session does not require a
|
|
|
|
|
browser to remain open, or any kind of persistence client-side: server-side
|
2014-04-14 19:06:16 +02:00
|
|
|
does it all. It also means that authorization must be done on another layer
|
|
|
|
|
(for example, your webserver could add a Basic Auth)

How does it work
|
|
|
|
|
================
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
We suppose that you have a continous recording of your radio broadcasting.
|
|
|
|
|
What techrec does is taking files from this directory and "cutting/pasting"
|
|
|
|
|
parts of them. This can boil down to something like
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
|
|
|
ffmpeg -i concat:2014-20-01-00-00.mp3|2014-20-01-00-01.mp3 -acodec copy -ss 160 -t 1840 foo.mp3
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
2023-03-31 02:33:27 +02:00
|
|
|
This continous recording needs to be configured so that:
|
|
|
|
|
- It can be split in multiple directories, but the granularity of this must be below one directory per day.
|
|
|
|
|
- The filename must be fully informative, without looking at the parent directories.

How to run
|
|
|
|
|
===========
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
|
|
|
pip install .
|
2021-08-25 11:50:34 +02:00
|
|
|
env TECHREC_CONFIG=yourconfig.py techrec serve
|

Implementation details

It is based on [fastapi](https://fastapi.tiangolo.com/), a really nice
|
|
|
|
|
framework. Simple APIs are offered through it, and the static site uses them
|
|
|
|
|
through JS.

|
|
Jobs are not dispatched using stuff like celery, but just using
|
|
|
|
|
[`BackgroundTasks`](https://fastapi.tiangolo.com/tutorial/background-tasks/),
|
|
|
|
|
in order to keep the installation as simple as possible.

The encoding part is delegated to `ffmpeg`, but the code is really modular so
|
2014-04-22 11:31:01 +02:00
|
|
|
changing this is a breeze. To be quicker and avoid the quality issues related
|
|
|
|
|
to reencoding, the codec "copy" is used: this means that input and output must
|
|
|
|
|
have the same format.
