Architecture
A Station is basically an object that represent a radio station. On each station, we use the Program object, that is declined in two different types:
- Scheduled: the diffusion is based on a timetable and planified through one Schedule or more; Diffusion object represent the occurrence of these programs;
- Streamed: the diffusion is based on random playlist, used to fill gaps between the programs;
Each program has a directory in AIRCOX_PROGRAMS_DIR; For each, subdir:
- archives: complete episode record, can be used for diffusions or as a podcast
- excerpts: excerpt of an episode, or other elements, can be used as a podcast
