PaulPetring/audiobook-feeds

This script generates rss and atom feeds from your local file system to server e.g. audio books or other sequential audio files and servers them as a static webserver. Furthermore it offers a small gui to select single folders per podcast.

But why?

By that you can tranfer your audiobooks to your smart phones / tables / internet radios by podcatching functionality. For me this saves a lot of annoying cable handling time and improved my book per month rate.

other facts

• it offers a simple password protection to prevent copy right issues
• serves rss and atom feeds for import
• runs in docker container (see MakeFile and DockerFile)
• works when placed in subdirs example.com/audio/ (e.g. reg for ssl without wildcard)
• allows custom theming and uses material design as default theme
• handles encoding of filenames at best effort

Usage

1. adjust settings in config.default.json and save it as config.json
   • simply skip this step to use the defaults
2. (sym)link some audiobook files as your ./files dir
   • e.g. ln -s /path/to/your/audiobook/collection/ ./files/
   • or copy some of them to the ./files/ dir
3. run the script inside a docker container using the Dockerfile provided
   • by using default docker sudo make build && sudo make run
   • by adjusting and using docker without MakeFile
     • docker build -t audiobook-feeds .
     • docker run --rm -v `pwd`:/usr/src/myapp -w /usr/src/myapp -it --rm -p 8080:8080 --name audiobook-feeds audiobook-feeds go run feed.go
   • by using go on the host machine
     • sudo make run-no-docker
4. navigate to 127.0.0.1:8080/folders/ to get to the web interface
5. enjoy your audiobooks as podcasts

Ideas to improve

- feed image, if provided in folder
- fix handling of the char '#'
- different sorting algorithms
