podcaster v0.1.1

podcaster

A general purpose podcast bot, running on Discord. A public bot is not currently available because of storage and performance concerns.

Features

• High-quality 320kb/s recording of a Discord channel.
• Separate audio files per person in the Discord channel. This allows you to edit the recording with much higher control.
• Secure MEGA upload (may be changed in the future).

TODO:

• User-selection of a codec (i.e. using AAC or opus instead of MP3).

Installation

Requirements:

• node.js 6.0.0 or newer
• git 2.10 or newer

To install podcaster on any Unix-based system, run the following command.

$ npm install -g podcaster

If this command fails (most likely due to node-opus), run the following command and then follow the Contributing section.

$ npm uninstall -g podcaster

Usage

$ podcaster [opts]

Every option is required. The following options are:

• -t=TOKEN - The discord bot token that podcaster will log into and run on.
• -e=EMAIL - Your MEGA email, used to upload processed audio.
• -p=PASWD - Your MEGA password, used to upload processed audio.

Contributing

To set up your development environment, run the following commands. The installation requirements apply here as well.

$ git clone https://github.com/winneon/podcaster.git
$ cd podcaster && npm install

The usage instructions are the same as listed in the Usage section. However, instead of running podcaster, run ./bin/podcaster in your podcaster directory.
