Basic principals
Cwc.Downloader allows customers and partners to download all binaries and metadata from archived webcasts, and store them locally.
Source is included in the application's zip file, and is licensed under Creative Commons. This allows you to freely use and modify the code for your own needs.
Cwc.Downloader is a command line utility for Windows that requires the .Net runtime version 2.0 to be available on the local machine.
When you run CwcDownloader.exe, it will look at Default.xml and then run based on the configuration settings it finds in that file.
The configuration file allows the user to indicate which types of files to download, and where to store them.
You can create multiple configuration files, and then run Cwc.Downloader based on one specific configuration.
It works like this; when you run :
CwcDownloader.exe
Cwc.Downloader will run based on Default.xml.
If you create additional configuration files, for example "AlternateConfig.xml", you would then run CwcDownloader like this :
CwcDownloader.exe AlternateConfig.xml
The general idea is that you create configuration files based on your particular needs, and then add them to Windows Task Scheduler to run at intervals.
Typical scenario's are:
- Download all binaries and meta data of webcasts so you cn archive them locally
- Download only the meta data so you can integrate it with your search application
