Hi Automators!
I’ve recently published a command line uploader to Overcast premium “Uploads” feed. Feedback and issues are welcome. Latest release:
Also, I’ve gotten pretty good at Go in the meanwhile, so if you need to automate something IO-heavy or parallelized – feel free to drop a line.
Very handy and worked perfectly for me! Thanks!
I’m not too familiar with go, but I assume I have to build it first?
Running
go build
in the directory works without errors and produces a cloudy-uploader executable.
There is no cloudyuploader (without a hyphen) and I can’t execute anything.
Sorry that I have to ask, but where am I going wrong?
Thanks a lot 
There is a pre-compiled version on GitHub.
(The clue with GitHub repos is always look for the tab named “Releases”. That’s usually where the pre-compiled versions will be if they aren’t linked to the main page.)
In this case if you go to https://github.com/Andrew-Morozko/cloudy-uploader/releases you will find a link to cloudyuploader_v1.0.0-alpha_macos.zip.
If you download and unzip that you will get a cloudyuploader file.
Oh snap, usually I do. Somehow I first thought it would be similar to ruby or python scripts that are just executable and then why I ran the go help didn’t think you would have gone to this extent and provided a compiled version 
Thank you, I will check it out this evening.
New release, now storing credentials in the keychain.
That’s great news. I’m very happy to see this update to use the keychain. Well done!
I downloaded that and it opens in Terminal but I don’t see where to put in my login info or tell it what file to upload. Definitely operator error but I wondered if you could point me in the right direction?
Check the read me in the repo. Login parameters arr listed there.
I saw that but I’m not sure what it wants me to do. I’ve done very little with the terminal so if it’s something obvious… it just isn’t obvious to me.
The help suggests something like this should work to upload an mp3 file called “some file” for pm the current user’s Document folder when the correct Overcast credentials are substituted in.
cloudyuploader --login me@email.com --password N0tMyR3@lPa$$w0rd ~/Documents/somefile.mp3
The credentials should be saved by default it says and then you can just upload the files without respecifying them each time.
I don’t have an Overcast premium account to confirm with. I’ve just used Huffduffer for ad hoc files on the rare occasion I wanted a non podcast in the app.
Yep, sylumer is correct.
The easiest way to use this program is to open terminal, drag-and-drop the cloudyuploader binary and then drag-and-drop your files. After that press enter. You will be prompted for login/password interactively if they weren’t already stored.
Okay, I was able to get it. Thanks to you both. Much appreciated.
What I really, really like about this solution, as opposed to all of the others that I have tried, is that it shows a progress meter so I have some idea that it is working and how long it will take to finish.
