This page is dedicated to the wugtube project:

Goal: To write our own wugtube website that automatically gathers or uploads videos. The reason for this is simple, none of the online youtube clones make it easy to integrate automatic uploads or are encrypted, making mods impossible or very difficult.

The Idea is to do it very modular, allowing anyone to help code the website, be it in perl, php, python or other languages.

Bellow is listed a couple of scripts that needs to be done.

  • 1. RSS monitor (using dade's postmanpat script possibly) to pass urls of new vids to a sql table.
    • Optionally have a page that users can request wugtube vids to be put into queue.
  • 2. Script to parse the video information of vids listed in step 1's table
  • 3. Status script that lists the status of vids.
    • Would be nice to have an "accept video url" button that would make it admin approved and then only download.
  • 4. Downloader script.
  • 5. html page to display the vids in order of posted date. with later option to specify how many vids to load per page.
