While we're on the topic of dropboxes and downloads, please permit me to self-promote two things: 1) a podcast downloader and importer, and 2) a dropbox "sanity checker". Both are command line tools to help with dropbox configuration and maintenance.
The podcast downloader (I call it "Kuchota"; Swahili for "fetch") is a ZSH script that configures and maintains configuration for the standard Linux tool "podget" (https://github.com/dvehrs/podget). Details and source at https://github.com/opensourceradio/ram/blob/master/usr/local/bin/kuchota (I need to pull it out of its current repo and make it a separate project). The dropox checker is an experiment in Go (golang.org) that I'm using with several stations to check the current state of dropbox configurations and rdimport processes. It attempts to fix simple issues like permissions and missing directories, and if necessary restarts rdcatchd(8) to kick off missing rdimport(1) processes. The code is at https://github.com/dklann/rd-dropbox ~David Klann On 03/06/2018 05:10 PM, Tom Van Gorkom wrote: > In our case, we have several Riv clients on a server but the dropbox > setup will be mostly the same on a standalone box as well.
