Load Meetup events into a Xibo digital signage CMS.
Project description
Meetup2xibo is a command line program that retrieves event descriptions from Meetup.com and loads them into a Xibo digital signage dataset. Xibo can display events in sign layouts such as agendas, calendars, room activity signs, and maps.
Meetup2xibo was developed for Nova Labs, a makerspace in Reston, Virginia. The busy Nova Labs calendar has up to a dozen Meetup.com events per day. Xibo displays event agendas for today and tommorrow on several large wall-mounted monitors. Meetup2xibo keeps those agendas up-to-date as events are added, cancelled, or updated.
