The missing command-line tool for otr.datenkeller.net!
Finally! :)
Useful:
- to automate usage of otr.datenkeller.net, e.g. to be able to programm recordings of your favorite shows via a cron job :)
- because it provides much better filtering than the website!
Tested on MacOS and Linux
- Shell (script is /bin/dash compatible, so only uses POSIX shell features)
- awk
- Some otr decode tool (if you want to decode ;))
- otrtool: Runs under Linux + MacOS
- otrdecoder ("Decoder"/"Dekoder"): Runs under Linux + MacOS
- wget and aria2c or curl
Copy my-otr somewhere. Run it. It'll guide you ;)
Otherwise you first need to:
- install
my-otrsomewhere - run
my-otr --conf >~/.my-otr.confto create your CONFIG FILE - edit the CONFIG FILE:
- #Mandatory# Enter your credentials for https://otr.datenkeller.net
- #Optionally# if you want to DECODE:
- Enter credentials for for https://www.onlinetvrecorder.com
- Adapt "get_decode_cmd()" in the CONFIG FILE (especially if you don't want to use otrtool !)
- place my-otr.awk somewhere (e.g. ~/.my-otr.awk /or/ BESIDE my-otr /or/ edit OUR_AWK_SCRIPT variable in the CONFIG FILE.
usage: my-otr/my-otr [OPTIONS] <COMMAND> [[PARAM] [..]]
OPTIONS:
-C | --conf [FILE] If FILE is provided: Use FILE as config file (instead of '/Users/me/.my-otr.conf').
If called WITHOUT FILE this will print the DEFAULT CONFIG.
You can use this to create your default config file:
my-otr --conf > "/Users/me/.my-otr.conf"
-Q | --quiet Supress any regular status output of the script (search results will still be printed). Independent of VERBOSE and DEBUG !
-V | --verbose Turn VERBOSE output ON.
-D | --debug Turn DEBUG output ON.
-DD | --deep-debug Turn DEBUG for subcommands ON called by this script: my-otr.awk, decode_cmd as returned by get_decode_cmd()
Independent of regular debug output (--debug).
-l | --log Turn LOGGING of any output (verbose, debug, deep-debug) ON. Logs to LOGFILE '/var/log/mine/me/my-otr.log' by default.
-L | --no-log Prevent logging to LOGFILE '/var/log/mine/me/my-otr.log'.
--log-file FILE Set LOGFILE to FILE.
-F | --force Do FORCE things - you'll be informed (in VERBOSE mode) where this can help.
COMMAND can be:
[--]help shows this usage information
[--]decode <OTRFILE> [<OTRFILE> [..]] [<OUTPUT-DIR> defaults to /dl/,tv]
<OTRFILE> can be '-', then the OTRFILE(s) are read from stdin !
The script will stop decoding and quit on errors.
<OUTPUT-DIR> needs to be a directory that exists.
This command is by default SILENT. Use --verbose to see decoded filenames.
[--]login <<< will NOT re-loging if cookie file found; except if FORCE is used <<< #TODO# automatically re-login in case cookie is not valid anymore
[--]search <<< allow filtering via additional parameters:
MANDATORY parameter:
TITLE SEARCH TEXT <<< text to search for in titles (this is what you would type into searchbox on otr.datenkeller.net!)
<<< will STOP to take parameters as TITLE-SEARCH-TEXT when a ',' is found!
OPTIONAL parameters: All parameters starting with '@' can be provided multiple times!
DESCRIPTION SEARCH TEXT <<< OPTIONAL 2nd text parameter; this will be used to search in the description <<< NOT YET IMPLEMENTED !!! #TODO#
@channel <<< search only in provided channel name (channel name must match otr.datenkeller.net)
'>date' <<< search only for shows AFTER (or ON; so including) a given date; in format: 2021-11-24
'<date' <<< search only for shows UP TO (or ON; so including) a given date; in format: 2021-11-24
'@date' <<< search only for shows AT a given date; in format: 2021-11-24
'@HH:' or '@HHh' or '@HH:MM' <<< e.g. "@20h" search only for shows STARTING AT the provided time
'>HH:' or '>HHh' or '>HH:MM' <<< e.g. ">20h" search only for shows STARTING AFTER (or ON; so including) the provided time
'<HH:' or '<HHh' or '<HH:MM' <<< e.g. "<20h" search only for shows STARTING BEFORE (or ON; so including) the provided time
'@Mon' .. '@sun' <<< search only for shows GIVEN AT CERTAIN WEEKDAY
'@DD' <<< search only for shows with a DURATION EQUAL the provided length in minutes
'<DD' <<< search only for shows with a DURATION LESS (or EQUAL; so including) the provided length in minutes
'>DD' <<< search only for shows with a DURATION MORE (or EQUAL; so including) the provided length in minutes
[--]dl|download <<< reads URL to download from stdin
<<< will NOT re-download if decoded file already exists; except if FORCE is used
[--]get <<< LIKE --dl, but will after successful download automatically DECODE (like calling my-otr --decode)!
Uses CONFIG FILE '~/.my-otr.conf'. You can change location with --conf parameter!
SOME DEFAULT VALUES FROM CONFIG FILE:
QUIET = '' <<< if QUIET is set (so != ''), then by default this script will supress any regular status output (search results will still be printed)
LOG = '1' <<< if LOG is set (so != ''), then by default this script will redirect all output to this LOGFILE '/var/log/mine/me/my-otr.log'! (see --no-log above)
VRB = '' <<< if VRB is set (so != ''), then by default this script will print VERBOSE output (see --verbose above)
DBG = '' <<< if DBG is set (so != ''), then by default this script will print DEBUG output (see --debug above)
DEEPDBG = '' <<< if DBG is set (so != ''), then by default this script will print DEBUG output (see --deep-debug above)
FORCE = '' <<< if FORCE is set (so != ''), then by default this script will FORCE some things (see --force above)
EXAMPLES:
# Search all Bares fuer Rares given on channel 'zdf', aired on or after 2020-02-28 and only shows given at exactly 15h05:
my-otr search "bares fuer rares" @zdf ">2020-02-28" @15:05
# Simply download ALL available Bares fuer Rares and decode them (but starting with the OLDEST -- hence the 'tac'):
my-otr search bares fuer rares|tac|my-otr get
REMARKS:
### ALL OUTPUT (regular status ouput (notice), VERBOSE, DEBUG output) all goes to STDERR /or/ to LOGFILE.
### ANY OUTPUT useful to be piped to next tool will go to STDOUT !
