TechRec
A Python2 web application that assist radio speakers in recording their shows.
At the moment, it relies on some details that are specific of our radio (like
the directory/format of the continous recording).
It is however quite simple to change that specific portion of code, as it is
modular and all in forge.py
Features
- The interface is extremely simple to use
- You can have nested recording (ie: to record an interview inside of a whole 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 does it all.
- The audio generation has a simple design, so switching from
ffmpeg
to, say,vlc
is simple
Implementation details
It is based on bottle, to get a minimal framework. Simple APIs are offered through it, and the static site uses them.
Jobs are not dispatched using stuff like celery, but with a thin wrapper over
multiprocessing.Pool
; this is just to keep the installation as simple as
possible.
The encoding part is delegated to ffmpeg
