=========================================================================

|
|
|
Airtime is an open source application that provides remote and
|
|
collaborative automation of a broadcast station.
|
|
|
|
Home page: http://www.sourcefabric.org/en/airtime/
|
|
|
|
Major features:
|
|
|
|
* Web-based remote station management. Authorized personnel can add
|
|
programme material, create playlists or smart blocks, and stream in live,
|
|
all via a web interface.
|
|
* Automation. Airtime has a scheduler function that enables users to
|
|
create shows with content for playback at the exact date and time specified.
|
|
Playlists, smart blocks and remote stream URLs can be used multiple times.
|
|
* Solid playout. Airtime uses the open source Liquidsoap streaming language
|
|
for reliable and precise playback to multiple outputs.
|
|
* Open, extensible architecture. Stations are free to extend and alter
|
|
all parts of the program code, under the GNU AGPLv3 license.

INSTALLATION
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
Please see this chapter to begin a typical installation:
|
|
http://sourcefabric.booktype.pro/airtime-25-for-broadcasters/preparing-the-server/
|
|
|
|
If you are a developer, please see this page:
|
|
http://wiki.sourcefabric.org/display/CC/Airtime+Dev+Site
|
|
|
|
Basic installation has two steps:
|
|
|
|
1) Run the install script, located in the Airtime root directory.
|
|
|
|
For an interactive installation, run:
|
|
|
|
sudo ./install
|
|
|
|
The installer will then prompt you about how you want to set up your Airtime
|
|
installation.
|
|
|
|
For a simple full installation (do this if you're installing Airtime from
|
|
scratch and don't have any of your own configuration set up), run
|
|
|
|
sudo ./install -fiapd
|
|
|
|
What this means:
|
|
|
|
-f - force; non-interactive (no prompts)
|
|
-i - install the default Icecast 2 setup for Airtime
|
|
-a - install the default apache setup for Airtime
|
|
-p - create a default Airtime postgres user
|
|
-d - install binary dependencies needed for Airtime
|
|
|
|
This will install all components necessary for Airtime, and set up
|
|
/usr/share/airtime as your web root (where apache looks for your Airtime files)
|
|
|
|
There are several options for installation - to see them all, run
|
|
|
|
sudo ./install --help
|
|
|
|
2) Once you've run the installer, navigate to localhost/ (if you have a custom
|
|
apache configuration, navigate to your Airtime web host) to run an interactive
|
|
setup.
|
|
|
|
If you just want to run Airtime with default settings, you won't need to change
|
|
anything, but if you have any custom configuration settings you'll be able to
|
|
specify them.
|
|
|
|
Once you finish the setup process, you'll be presented with a configuration
|
|
checklist so you can ensure that your Airtime installation is working
|
|
correctly. If anything was mis-configured, the checklist will provide some .
|
|
helpful tips to resolve the issue.
|
|
|
|
If your checklist is all green, you're ready to get started with Airtime!
