# HVAC Know It All Content Aggregation System

A containerized Python application that aggregates content from multiple HVAC Know It All sources, converts them to markdown format, and syncs to a NAS.

## Features

- **Multi-source content aggregation** from YouTube, Instagram, TikTok, MailChimp, WordPress, and Podcast RSS
- **Comprehensive image downloading** for all visual content (Instagram posts, YouTube thumbnails, Podcast artwork)
- **Cumulative markdown management** - Single source-of-truth files that grow with backlog and incremental updates
- **API integrations** for YouTube Data API v3 and MailChimp API
- **Intelligent content merging** with caption/transcript updates and metric tracking
- **Automated NAS synchronization** to `/mnt/nas/hvacknowitall/` for both markdown and media files
- **State management** for incremental updates
- **Parallel processing** for multiple sources
- **Atlantic timezone** (America/Halifax) timestamps

## Cumulative Markdown System

### Overview
The system maintains a single markdown file per source that combines:
- Initial backlog content (historical data)
- Daily incremental updates (new content)
- Content updates (new captions, updated metrics)

### How It Works

1. **Initial Backlog**: First run creates base file with all historical content
2. **Daily Incremental**: Subsequent runs merge new content into existing file
3. **Smart Merging**: Updates existing entries when better data is available (captions, transcripts, metrics)
4. **Archival**: Previous versions archived with timestamps for history

### File Naming Convention
```
<brandName>_<source>_<dateTime>.md
Example: hvacnkowitall_YouTube_2025-08-19T143045.md
```

## Quick Start

### Installation

```bash
# Install UV package manager
pip install uv

# Install dependencies
uv pip install -r requirements.txt
```

### Configuration

Create `.env` file with credentials:
```env
# YouTube
YOUTUBE_API_KEY=your_api_key

# MailChimp
MAILCHIMP_API_KEY=your_api_key
MAILCHIMP_SERVER_PREFIX=us10

# Instagram
INSTAGRAM_USERNAME=username
INSTAGRAM_PASSWORD=password

# WordPress
WORDPRESS_USERNAME=username
WORDPRESS_API_KEY=api_key
```

### Running

```bash
# Run all scrapers (parallel)
uv run python run_all_scrapers.py

# Run single source
uv run python -m src.youtube_api_scraper_v2

# Test cumulative mode
uv run python test_cumulative_mode.py

# Consolidate existing files
uv run python consolidate_current_files.py
```

## Architecture

### Core Components

- **BaseScraper**: Abstract base class for all scrapers
- **BaseScraperCumulative**: Enhanced base with cumulative support
- **CumulativeMarkdownManager**: Handles intelligent file merging
- **ContentOrchestrator**: Manages parallel scraper execution

### Data Flow

```
1. Scraper fetches content (checks state for incremental)
2. CumulativeMarkdownManager loads existing file
3. Merges new content (adds new, updates existing)
4. Archives previous version
5. Saves updated file with current timestamp
6. Updates state for next run
```

### Directory Structure

## API Quota Management

### YouTube Data API v3
- **Daily Limit**: 10,000 units
- **Usage Strategy**: 95% daily quota for captions
- **Costs**: 
  - videos.list: 1 unit
  - captions.list: 50 units
  - channels.list: 1 unit

### Rate Limiting
- Instagram: 200 posts/hour
- YouTube: Respects API quotas
- General: Exponential backoff with retry

## Production Deployment

### Systemd Services

Services are configured in `/etc/systemd/system/`:
- `hvac-content-images-8am.service` - Morning run with image downloads
- `hvac-content-images-12pm.service` - Noon run with image downloads
- `hvac-content-images-8am.timer` - Morning schedule (8 AM Atlantic)
- `hvac-content-images-12pm.timer` - Noon schedule (12 PM Atlantic)

### Manual Deployment

```bash
# Start services
sudo systemctl start hvac-content-8am.timer
sudo systemctl start hvac-content-12pm.timer

# Enable on boot
sudo systemctl enable hvac-content-8am.timer
sudo systemctl enable hvac-content-12pm.timer

# Check status
sudo systemctl status hvac-content-*.timer
```

## Monitoring

```bash
# View logs
journalctl -u hvac-content-8am -f

# Check file growth
ls -lh data/markdown_current/

# View statistics
uv run python -c "from src.cumulative_markdown_manager import CumulativeMarkdownManager; ..."
```

## Testing

```bash
# Run all tests
uv run pytest

# Test specific scraper
uv run pytest tests/test_youtube_scraper.py

# Test cumulative mode
uv run python test_cumulative_mode.py
```

## Troubleshooting

### Common Issues

1. **Instagram Rate Limiting**: Scraper implements humanized delays (18-22 seconds between requests)
2. **YouTube Quota Exceeded**: Wait until next day, quota resets at midnight Pacific
3. **NAS Permission Errors**: Warnings are normal, files still sync successfully
4. **Missing Captions**: Use YouTube Data API instead of youtube-transcript-api

### Debug Commands

```bash
# Check scraper state
cat data/.state/*_state.json

# View recent logs
tail -f logs/YouTube/youtube_*.log

# Test single source
uv run python -m src.youtube_api_scraper_v2 --test
```
