Podcast is a simple library and command line utility for creating podcast files from a directory of mp3 files. Podcast will examine mp3s, extract metadata from ID3 tags, and build an RSS file which can then be podcast clients to download the mp3s.

You’ll need to install the Ruby mp3info library installed before podcast will work:

gem install ruby-mp3info

Or you can grab ruby-mp3info here:

http://rubyforge.org/projects/ruby-mp3info/

Once you’ve installed ruby-mp3info and podcast you should have a command line utility you can run on a directory of mp3 files:

% podcast --dir=/home/ed/mp3s --out=podcast.rss
