Podcast Feed Loader

JavaScript Style Guide License: MIT

This is the part of the product that is responsible for importing the data.

It loads podcast feed urls from a file, normalizes them, and then updates them in a search engine. Currently only supports Azure Search.

Running with Docker

# test docker enviroment bindings before creating containers
docker-compose config

# start local development
docker-compose up -d

# start regular docker
docker-compose build && docker-compose up [ OPTIONAL ] -d (if console is not needed)  

Command to stop container:

# to stop
docker-compose stop

Running without Docker

We recommend you run this with Docker, but you can also do things the old fashioned way:

# Set environment variables (see below)
cd app
npm install
npm start

Settings

There are a couple environment settings you can set in order to actually update a search engine. Currently the only supported engine is Azure.

You can run the project without these settings. It won't actually update anything, but it's a good test.

SEARCH_PROVIDER="Azure"
AZURE_SEARCH_INDEX_NAME=“podcasts"
AZURE_SEARCH_ENDPOINT="https://podcasts.search.windows.net"
AZURE_SEARCH_ADMIN_API_KEY="YOUR_SECRET_HERE"
AZURE_SEARCH_API_VERSION="2017-11-11-Preview"
SEARCH_OLDEST_INDEX_DATE='2018-12-29'

Huge thanks to all of the contributors!
