Automatic unattended Audio Node Creation via cron

I'm working on a module called audio_xmlrpc.module that allows the creation of audio entries via XML-RPC. I've also developed a PHP library that is called by cron to upload local audiofiles (together with user information, tags, etc.) to audio_xmlrpc.module.

Although this is probably more than what you are looking for, I believe audio_xmlrpc has all the functionality that you need. It's only been tested on Drupal 4.7, though. Let me know if you would like to try this module, ok?

Hi Leoburd,

Your comment is very interesting. I would be happy to try out this module and perhaps even help you out with it. Can you tell us how you want to proceed?

thx

In the meantime, I found a record of you xmlrpc module. Is the version attached to this comment http://drupal.org/node/43110#comment-148617 the last version you have?

Where can I find the "upload local audiofiles" module you are speaking about?

anthon1, odds are that audio_import will do 90% of what you want. if want to build a cron based import take a look at the station module's archive. it has some code you could use as a starting point. it uses a cron hook to import mp3s and fetch metadata via XMLRPC from a station schedule.

Well, you can find it in 2 different modules:

I've just uploaded the latest version of audio_xmlrpc.module to http://drupal.org/node/43110 ...

anthon1, i wasn't suggestion that the station module was a solution for you, only that, if you were a developer, it would be a good source of sample code because it does a good deal of you described.

feel free to re-open this if you need more help.
