sl2d

sl2d is a dummy command line launcher monitoring tool written in Python.

It is used internally at SmartJog to stream audiovisual content from or to the SmartJog Content Delivery Network.

sl2d was first designed to only take care of ffmpeg but it is not meant to be locked to ffmpeg only.

License

sl2d is released under the GNU LGPL 2.1.

Build and installation

Bootstrapping

sl2d uses autotools for its build system.

If you checked out code from the git repository, you will need autoconf and automake to generate the configure script and Makefiles.

To generate them, simply run:

$ autoreconf -fvi

Building

sl2d builds like a typical autotools-based project:

$ ./configure && make && make install

Development

We use semantic versioning for versioning. When working on a development release, we append ~dev to the current version to distinguish released versions from development ones. This has the advantage of working well with Debian's version scheme, where ~ is considered smaller than everything (so version 1.10.0 is more up to date than 1.10.0~dev).

Authors

sl2d was started at SmartJog by Gilles Dartiguelongue in 2009 as a full rewrite or a shell script based solution running in screen sessions. Various employees and interns from SmartJog fixed bugs and added features since then.
