Firehose

Embeds a live list of podcast episodes. A firehose is just a query, so the same template gives you the whole scene on the front page, one show's back catalogue on its own page, or every appearance a person has made on their page.

Usage

{{Firehose}}                        the most recent episodes across every show
{{Firehose|limit=20}}               more of them
{{Firehose|show=Toy Heart with Tom Power}}   one show
{{Firehose|guest=Bronwyn Keith-Hynes}}       one person's appearances
{{Firehose|guest={{PAGENAME}}}}     the same, on that person's own page
{{Firehose|show=Grass Talk Radio|limit=5}}   combine them

Parameters

  • limit - how many episodes to show. Defaults to 10.
  • show - restrict to one podcast. Must match the podcast's page title.
  • guest - restrict to episodes featuring one person. Must match their page title.
  • heading - optional heading rendered above the list.

Notes

Episodes come from Category:Podcast episodes, which is populated from the podcast feeds listed in Category:Podcasts. If a show is missing from a firehose, the fix is on the wiki: add the show, or add a guest-name pattern so its episode titles parse.

Rows are drawn by Template:Firehose/row.
