Session Goal

The session aimed to develop and refine various scripts and workflows for automating the processing and publication of video content, as well as generating Markdown files from JSONL data.

Key Activities

  • Developed a Python script to convert JSONL files into Markdown with Quartz-compatible frontmatter, including YouTube embeds and placeholders for transcriptions.
  • Outlined an automated workflow for video ingestion, processing, and publication, integrating AI transcriptions and analytics.
  • Created a shell script (run_daily.sh) to orchestrate a daily data processing pipeline, including backfill of videos and content creation.
  • Configured PromptFlow to allow custom execution naming and output file management.
  • Adjusted the pipeline’s backfill step to use the --date flag for improved script compatibility.
  • Provided solutions to prevent duplicate filenames in backfill.py, including modifying the wrapper or adjusting the script logic.

Achievements

  • Successfully implemented and tested scripts for video processing and Markdown generation.
  • Improved the robustness and flexibility of automation scripts, ensuring compatibility and reducing errors.

Pending Tasks

  • Further testing and optimization of the automated workflows to ensure seamless integration and error handling.
