The goal of the R package radiofrance is to retrieve Radio France
(France Inter, France Culture, etc.) podcasts metadata (date, title, mp3
URL and and duration). User can easily download metadata for any
podcast. The name of the podcast must be extracted from the website URL
(e.g. Le Moment Meurice must be written as le-moment-meurice).
You can install the development version from GitHub with:
remotes::install_github("ahasverus/radiofrance")Then you can attach the package radiofrance:
library("radiofrance")podcast_name <- "la-chronique-de-waly-dia"
## Retrieve episodes information ----
tab <- get_metadata(podcast_name, radio = "franceinter")
## Create a M3U playlist ----
create_m3u(tab, podcast_name)The m3u file can be open with
VLC to stream all
episodes. To retrieve new episodes, just re-run the functions
get_metadata() and create_m3u().
