The Discorsive Image Server.

This tool provides a websocket implementation that will serve images with captions from a text source, which could be a file as well as its stdin.

Installation From Source

(requires Go)

% git clone https://github.com/discursive-image/dis.git # clone the repository
% export GO111MODULE=on # (opt) [use go modules](https://blog.golang.org/using-go-modules).
% make # build

You'll find the produced executables inside bin/. You can start dis serving lines from the examples/hacking-diic_example-1.csv file by running:

 % bin/ratereader < examples/hacking-diic_example-1.csv | bin/dis

Or if you want it to read from a file indefinetly (waits for new lines to be written):

 % tail -f examples/hacking-diic_example-1.csv | bin/dis

You can choose which port dis should use using the -p flag (checkout dis --help for more). When the server starts correctly, a websocket endpoint will be available at <host>:<port>/di/stream.

Specs

Input csv file is expected to be formatted as

00:05:28.180,00:05:28.330,be,https://lookaside.fbsbx.com/lookaside/crawler/media/?media_id=283494941784

The first column being the start duration when the word was first heard (we're talking about speech to text here), second column the end duration, third the spoken word and the last the image link.
