Video republishing script

This is a one-time-use republishing script for videos existing in Universal Publishing Platform.

We force-notify brightcove-notifier and brightcove-metadata-notifier, they will fetch the everything from Brightcove and send them through our publishing pipelines.

After this we will have their native form in the native stores, and we could have a Jenkins job for republishing individual videos. In that future case we will not have to go to Brightcove, just take the native content from nativerw and post to notifiers.

Explanation

To publish one video you would need to call two endpoints of our publishing stack for content and metadata. To show you how, here are two curl commands:

1. curl -i -XPOST -H"Authorization: Basic aBc..." "https://pub-prod-uk-up.ft.com/__brightcove-notifier/forece-notify/5090624180001"
2. curl -i -XPOST -H"Authorization: Basic aBc..." "https://pub-prod-uk-up.ft.com/__brightcove-metadata-preprocessor/forece-notify/5090624180001"

To obtain all the ids of videos you must query our database. Useful queries and commands can be found in the help-in-detail.md file.

Usage

Command line arguments are: publishing environment tag, file containing the video id list, basic authentication for the CoCo cluster, parallelism factor: how many parallel requests

ruby republish-videos.rb pub-prod-uk identifiers.txt "Basic dXB..." 16 > republish-videos.log

It's strongly recommended to save the output to a file, for after analysis.
