I need to keep this all within rdcatch, no scripts or exotic
solutions. If it can't be done in rdcatch, then the staff will have to
go back to manual daily downloads like they were doing prior to
Rivendell.
you write a shell script that downloads every week on the same day to a
local folder
renaming as necessary
then carting each daily episode
and sending you a 'done' message; or a 'squawk'
all done as a cron job in the background no user intervention.
the producer has to be consistent in their labeling. I have one who is a
bit erratic. There are some "but if" in that script.
you can wildcard anything in a filename in bash.
rd catch does well with the sane stuff.
some providers, especially ones whose 1st language is not English can be
somewhat fey.
bash is very powerful.
if you need a hand send me the url of the download site, the names of
the files you want and the GROUP and Cart Numbers you want them in. New
cart each day not new cut each day although that can be done.
I can send you a script with comments so you can see how it's done and
use the same ideas over again.
rdcatch and dropbox are both very useful but the syndicated stuff or the
stuff you are leaching from somewhere may need something a little more
serious.
