When retrieving individual events, the previous and the following event are determined
according to the current filters to allow navigation between events.
On copying events from another studio selection will be saved.
The next time one wants to copy saved presets are preselected.
This simplifies to frequently rebroadcast shows from another project.
If audio files become inactive because a new file is uploaded, the new
file is marked as active and the old file is marked as not active.
This allows fastly querying events and their active upload file.
Before this change all event's audio files were found and needed to be
filtered afterwards to get a set of unique events.
After the end of a show, the audio recordings are uploaded to a
directory "listen_dir" under a secret name, beginning with the
transmission date "yyyy-mm-dd hh_mm". The directory is available as URL
"listen_url", but must not be listable. In order to gain access to the
recording for 7 days after the show, a check is done to determine
whether the file is available. A random key for the show is stored in
the database if a file matching the date is found in listen_dir. With
this key as a name, a symbolic link to the original audio file is
created. The random name can be used in public documents. If the show
data is read again, the key will be retrieved from the database. File
access can be restricted by the Apache2 handler ListenerAccess.pm. With
it, access to the public symlink is possible for one week.
Config::General does not support Apache like definition and use of
variables. A minimal implementation of Apache-like configuration
allows to define variables by
Define <variable-name> <variable-value>
and use them later by
${variable-name}
.
