TechRec

A Python2 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

  • 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. It also means that authorization must be done on another layer (for example, your webserver could add a Basic Auth)

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, but the code is really modular so changing this is a breeze.
