## About The Project
Podgrab is a is a self-hosted podcast manager which automatically downloads latest podcast episodes. It is a light-weight application built using GO.
It works best if you already know which podcasts you want to monitor. However there is an experimental podcast search system powered by iTunes built into Podgrab
### Motivation
Podgrab started a tool that I initially built to solve a specific problem I had. During the COVID pandemic times I started going for a run. I do not prefer taking by phone along so I would add podcast episodes to my smart watch which could be connected with my bluetooth earphones. Most podcasting apps do not expose the mp3 files directly which is why I decided to build this quick tool for myself. Once it reached a stage where my requirements were fulfilled I decided to make it a little pretty and share it with everyone else.

## Installation
The easiest way to run Podgrab is to run it as a docker container.
### Using Docker
Simple setup without mounted volumes (for testing and evaluation)
```sh
docker run -d -p 8080:8080 --name=podgrab akhilrex/podgrab
```
Binding local volumes to the container
```sh
docker run -d -p 8080:8080 --name=podgrab -v "/host/path/to/assets:/assets" -v "/host/path/to/config:/config" akhilrex/podgrab
```
### Using Docker-Compose
Modify the docker compose file provided [here](https://github.com/akhilrex/podgrab/blob/master/docker-compose.yml) to update the volume and port binding and run the following command
```yaml
version: "2.1"
services:
