The ReloadSchedule module for Wowza Streaming Engine™ media server software adds custom HTTP Provider to control (reload or unload) stream schedules created by the StreamPublisher Module.
Wowza Streaming Engine 4.0.0 or later is recommended.
Install compiled JAR file in the [install-dir]/lib folder and add a module to the [install-dir]/conf/VHost.xml file under HostPort 8086 section as follows:
<HTTPProvider>
<BaseClass>com.serverlabs.wms.plugin.HTTPReloadSchedule</BaseClass>
<RequestFilters>scheduleloader*</RequestFilters>
<AuthenticationMethod>none</AuthenticationMethod>
</HTTPProvider>Module configuration must be placed above any existing HTTP Providers with a wildcard in RequestFilter property (ex. *). Since this wildcard acts as a catchall for any previously unmatched request filters, anything placed below it will not be executed.
The AuthenticationMethod property specifies the authentication method that's used to control access to the HTTP Provider. Valid values are admin-digest admin-basic and none. The admin-digest authentication method uses digest authentication to control access to the HTTP Provider. User names and passwords for admin-digest and admin-basic authentication are stored in the [install-dir]/conf/admin.password file by default. The none method allows all access.
After adding the module, restart your Wowza media server instance.
