ODR-EncoderManager

OpenDigitalRadio Encoder Manager is a tools to run and configure ODR Encoder easly with a WebGUI.

Note about version V5.0.1

Bug fixes

• use yaml.safe_load instead yaml.load to avoid crash on recent python version

Note about version V5.0.0

Requirement

• ODR-AudioEnc v3.0.0
• ODR-SourceCompanion v1.0.0
• ODR-PadEnc v3.0.0

New Feature / Change

• Add odr-padenc raw-slides option
• Add additional supervisor option by encoder (only via editing config file at this time)
• Display ODR tools version
• ODR-padenc socket support
• Change supervisor stderr logging
• Communication between odr-audioenc/odr-sourcecompanion use socket instead fifo

Bug fixes

• Solve issue with SNMP request on AVT with last firmware (ClockSource)

INSTALLATION

• (root) Install requirement (debian/stretch) : apt install python3-cherrypy3 python3-jinja2 python3-serial python3-yaml supervisor python3-pysnmp4
• (root) Add odr user : adduser odr
• (root) Add odr user to dialout group : usermod -a -G dialout odr
• (root) Add odr user to audio group : usermod -a -G audio odr
• (user) Got to odr user home : cd /home/odr/
• (user) Clone git repository : git clone https://github.com/YoannQueret/ODR-EncoderManager.git
• (user) Rename sample config : mv /home/odr/ODR-EncoderManager/config.json.sample /home/odr/ODR-EncoderManager/config.json
• (root) Make the symlink: ln -s /home/odr/ODR-EncoderManager/supervisor-encoder.conf /etc/supervisor/conf.d/odr-encoder.conf
• (root) Make the symlink: ln -s /home/odr/ODR-EncoderManager/supervisor-gui.conf /etc/supervisor/conf.d/odr-gui.conf
• (root) Edit /etc/supervisor/supervisord.conf and add this section :

[inet_http_server]
port = 8900
username = user ; Auth username
password = pass ; Auth password

• (root) Restart supervisor : /etc/init.d/supervisor restart
• (root) Start WEB server : supervisorctl reread; supervisorctl update ODR-encoderManager
• Go to : http://<ip_address>:8080
• Login with user joe and password secret

CONFIGURATION

• You can edit global configuration, in particular path in this files :
  • config.json
  • supervisor-gui.conf
• If you want to change supervisor XMLRPC login/password, you need to edit /etc/supervisor/supervisord.conf and config.json files

How to set DLS / DL+ / SLS

Set DLS / DL+ for all encoder To set a text metadata used for DLS, use http GET or POST on the Encoder Manager API from your automation software.

http://{ip}:8080/api/setDLS?dls={artist}-{title}

As an alternative DLS+ tags are automatically activated if you use artist & title parameters:

http://{ip}:8080/api/setDLS?artist={artist}&title={title}

Many radio automation software can send this information to Encoder Manager API by using a call of this type (for example)

http://{ip}:8080/api/setDLS?dls=%%artist%% - %%title%%

%%artist%% - %%title%% should be replaced with the expression expected from your radio automation software.

At each events on your playlist (when a track start) the radio automation software will send via this url the appropriate metadata to Encoder Manager API. It will be reflected on the DAB signal.

Set DLS / DL+ for specific encoder (from version V4.0.0) If you want to update DLS / DL+ for a specific encoder, you need to find the uniq_id on Encoder > Manage page under Information button

http://{ip}:8080/api/setDLS?dls={artist}-{title}&uniq_id={00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000}

Set SLS for all encoder To send slide used for SLS, use http POST on the Encoder Manager API.

curl -X POST -F 'slide_file=@"live.jpg"' http://{ip}:8080/api/setSLS

Set SLS for specific encoder If you want to update SLS for a specific encoder, you need to find the uniq_id on Encoder > Manage page under Information button

curl -X POST -F 'uniq_id={00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000}' -F 'slide_file=@"{file.jpg}"' http://{ip}:8080/api/setSLS

ADVANCED

• To use the reboot api (/api/reboot), you need to allow odr user to run shutdown command by adding the line bellow at the end of /etc/sudoers file :

odr     ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: /sbin/shutdown
