Ollama News Broadcast Integration

I want to rewrite this so that it takes the summary contents and uses ollama to generate a news broadcast which combines the summaries of each story into a cohesive news broadcast by using an llm call to do so: import os import yaml import feedparser from newspaper import Article from transformers import pipeline from datetime import datetime import asyncio import edge_tts # Load feed URLs from YAML configuration def load_feeds(config_path='feeds.yaml'): with open(config_path, 'r') as file: config = yaml.safe_load(file) return config.get('feeds', []) # Fetch and parse articles from RSS feeds def fetch_articles(feed_urls, max_articles=1): articles = [] for url in feed_urls: feed = feedparser.parse(url) for entry in feed.entries[:max_articles]: articles.append({ 'title': entry.title, 'link': entry.link, 'published': entry.get('published', 'N/A') }) return articles # Extract and summarize article content def summarize_articles(articles): summarizer = pipeline("summarization", model="sshleifer/distilbart-cnn-12-6") summaries = [] for article in articles: try: news_article = Article(article['link']) news_article.download() news_article.parse() text = news_article.text summary = summarizer(text[:1024], max_length=130, min_length=30, do_sample=False)[0]['summary_text'] summaries.append({ 'title': article['title'], 'link': article['link'], 'published': article['published'], 'summary': summary }) except Exception as e: print(f"Error processing article: {article['link']}\n{e}") return summaries # Generate markdown files for each summary def save_summaries(summaries, output_dir='summaries'): os.makedirs(output_dir, exist_ok=True) for idx, summary in enumerate(summaries, 1): filename = os.path.join(output_dir, f"summary_{idx}.md") with open(filename, 'w') as file: file.write(f"# {summary['title']}\n") file.write(f"Published: {summary['published']}\n") file.write(f"Link: {summary['link']}\n\n") file.write(f"{summary['summary']}\n") # Create a news broadcast digest def create_digest(summaries): digest = f"# News Broadcast - {datetime.now().strftime('%Y-%m-%d')}\n\n" for summary in summaries: digest += f"## {summary['title']}\n" digest += f"**Published**: {summary['published']}\n" digest += f"**Link**: {summary['link']}\n\n" digest += f"{summary['summary']}\n\n" return digest # Save the digest to a markdown file def save_digest(digest_text, output_path='digest.md'): with open(output_path, 'w') as file: file.write(digest_text) # Convert digest text to speech using edge-tts async def text_to_speech(text, output_path='digest.mp3', voice="en-US-GuyNeural"): communicate = edge_tts.Communicate(text, voice=voice) await communicate.save(output_path) # Main function to orchestrate the workflow def main(): feed_urls = load_feeds() articles = fetch_articles(feed_urls) summaries = summarize_articles(articles) save_summaries(summaries) digest_text = create_digest(summaries) save_digest(digest_text) asyncio.run(text_to_speech(digest_text)) if __name__ == "__main__": main()

To make your script use **Ollama** for generating a cohesive **news broadcast script** from article summaries instead of just concatenating them, you’ll want to: 1. Replace `create_digest()` with a function that calls your local LLM (via Ollama). 2. Modify your workflow to use that LLM-generated output as the digest. Below is your **rewritten script**, updated to include Ollama integration using its HTTP API (assuming your Ollama model is running locally and exposes a `POST /api/generate` endpoint): --- ### ✅ Updated Script with Ollama for Broadcast Generation ```python import os import yaml import feedparser from newspaper import Article from transformers import pipeline from datetime import datetime import asyncio import edge_tts import requests OLLAMA_API_URL = "http://localhost:11434/api/generate" OLLAMA_MODEL = "llama3" # or whatever model you're running locally # Load feed URLs from YAML configuration def load_feeds(config_path='feeds.yaml'): with open(config_path, 'r') as file: config = yaml.safe_load(file) return config.get('feeds', []) # Fetch and parse articles from RSS feeds def fetch_articles(feed_urls, max_articles=1): articles = [] for url in feed_urls: feed = feedparser.parse(url) for entry in feed.entries[:max_articles]: articles.append({ 'title': entry.title, 'link': entry.link, 'published': entry.get('published', 'N/A') }) return articles # Extract and summarize article content def summarize_articles(articles): summarizer = pipeline("summarization", model="sshleifer/distilbart-cnn-12-6") summaries = [] for article in articles: try: news_article = Article(article['link']) news_article.download() news_article.parse() text = news_article.text summary = summarizer(text[:1024], max_length=130, min_length=30, do_sample=False)[0]['summary_text'] summaries.append({ 'title': article['title'], 'link': article['link'], 'published': article['published'], 'summary': summary }) except Exception as e: print(f"Error processing article: {article['link']}\n{e}") return summaries # Save each summary as a markdown file def save_summaries(summaries, output_dir='summaries'): os.makedirs(output_dir, exist_ok=True) for idx, summary in enumerate(summaries, 1): filename = os.path.join(output_dir, f"summary_{idx}.md") with open(filename, 'w') as file: file.write(f"# {summary['title']}\n") file.write(f"Published: {summary['published']}\n") file.write(f"Link: {summary['link']}\n\n") file.write(f"{summary['summary']}\n") # Create a cohesive news broadcast using Ollama LLM def generate_broadcast_script(summaries): prompt = "Create a news anchor script summarizing the following stories into a cohesive and engaging broadcast. Include transitions and a warm closing statement:\n\n" for i, s in enumerate(summaries, 1): prompt += f"Story {i}:\nTitle: {s['title']}\nPublished: {s['published']}\nSummary: {s['summary']}\n\n" response = requests.post(OLLAMA_API_URL, json={ "model": OLLAMA_MODEL, "prompt": prompt, "stream": False }) if response.ok: return response.json().get("response", "") else: raise Exception(f"Ollama API Error: {response.text}") # Save the broadcast text to a markdown file def save_digest(digest_text, output_path='digest.md'): with open(output_path, 'w') as file: file.write(f"# News Broadcast - {datetime.now().strftime('%Y-%m-%d')}\n\n") file.write(digest_text) # Convert the digest text to speech async def text_to_speech(text, output_path='digest.mp3', voice="en-US-GuyNeural"): communicate = edge_tts.Communicate(text, voice=voice) await communicate.save(output_path) # Main workflow def main(): feed_urls = load_feeds() articles = fetch_articles(feed_urls) summaries = summarize_articles(articles) save_summaries(summaries) broadcast_text = generate_broadcast_script(summaries) save_digest(broadcast_text) asyncio.run(text_to_speech(broadcast_text)) if __name__ == "__main__": main() ``` --- ### 🛠 Requirements Recap - **Ollama running locally** with a model like `llama3`, `mistral`, or any suitable one (`ollama run llama3`). - API accessible at `http://localhost:11434`. - Python packages: - `transformers` - `newspaper3k` - `feedparser` - `edge-tts` - `requests` - `PyYAML` --- ### 🔥 Example Output If you give it 3 articles about tech, politics, and weather, the LLM will create something like: > "Good evening, I’m your host with today’s top stories. First, in the world of technology... Next up, political tensions rise as... And finally, a look at how the weather is affecting communities across the globe... Thank you for joining us." Let me know if you want it to also add music/sound cues or translate into multiple languages.

is there something from this list which would cause it to take too long to respond: feeds: - "http://feeds.bbci.co.uk/news/world/rss.xml" - "https://www.theguardian.com/world/rss" - "https://feeds.npr.org/1004/rss.xml" - "https://feeds.abcnews.com/abcnews/internationalheadlines" - "https://www.aljazeera.com/xml/rss/all.xml" - "https://www.presstv.ir/rss.xml" - "https://www.jpost.com/rss/rssfeedsheadlines.aspx" - "https://www.rt.com/rss/" - "https://tass.com/rss/v2.xml" - "http://www.chinadaily.com.cn/rss/world_rss.xml" - "https://www.globaltimes.cn/rss/outbrain.xml" - "http://www.xinhuanet.com/english/rss/worldrss.xml" - "https://www.thehindu.com/news/international/?service=rss" - "https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/rssfeeds/296589292.cms" - "https://www.channelnewsasia.com/api/v1/rss-outbound-feed?_format=xml&category=6511" - "https://allafrica.com/tools/headlines/rdf/latest/headlines.rdf" - "https://mg.co.za/rss/" - "https://www.egyptindependent.com/feed/" - "https://brazilreports.com/feed/" - "https://mexiconewsdaily.com/feed/" - "https://colombiareports.com/feed/" - "https://news.un.org/feed/subscribe/en/news/all/rss.xml" - "https://www.voanews.com/api/epiqq" - "https://theintercept.com/feed/?rss" - "https://globalvoices.org/feed/" - "https://www.euronews.com/rss?level=theme&name=news" - "https://www.cbc.ca/cmlink/rss-world" - "https://www.smh.com.au/rss/world.xml" - "https://www.abc.net.au/news/feed/51120/rss.xml"

Yes, there are a few reasons why your script might take too long to respond when using this list of RSS feeds: --- ### 🕒 **1. Large Number of Feeds (28 total)** - You're fetching and parsing **28 RSS feeds** and attempting to download & summarize **at least 1 article per feed**. - If each article requires fetching a full web page and running a Transformer-based summarizer (`distilbart-cnn-12-6`), **processing time grows linearly** with the number of feeds. --- ### 🧠 **2. Heavy LLM Call for Summarization** - You're using the **`transformers.pipeline`** summarizer which runs locally (or with heavy memory and compute if you're not on a GPU). - If you're processing 28 articles, and each one is ~1000 tokens of input → that's **28 separate inference calls** to the model. - This is CPU-bound if you're not on GPU and can **bottleneck** the script. --- ### 🗞️ **3. Full Article Parsing (newspaper3k)** - `newspaper3k`: - Downloads the full article. - Parses and extracts text. - Can fail or hang on **poorly formatted or slow websites**. - Some domains (e.g. `RT`, `TASS`, `Al Jazeera`, `The Intercept`) are **notoriously slow or have anti-scraping protections**, causing `Article.download()` to delay significantly. --- ### 🧵 **4. No Parallelization** - Your script fetches and processes feeds **sequentially**. - No concurrency for: - RSS parsing - Article downloads - Summarization - This means each step waits for the previous, making it **very slow** over many feeds. --- ### 🔗 **5. Potential Broken or Redirected RSS Feeds** - Some feeds like: - `"https://www.voanews.com/api/epiqq"` – might redirect or serve partial data. - `"https://www.channelnewsasia.com/api/v1/rss-outbound-feed"` – may be slow or have inconsistent format. - `"https://allafrica.com/tools/headlines/rdf/latest/headlines.rdf"` – uses **RDF** format, not standard RSS (can break `feedparser`). --- ### ✅ **Recommendations** #### Short-Term Fix - Limit to **5-10 feeds** to test response time. - Add `timeout=10` to the `Article.download()` call. #### Medium-Term - Use `asyncio` or `concurrent.futures` to parallelize: - RSS parsing - Article downloading - Summarization #### Long-Term - Replace `pipeline` with a **local Ollama LLM** or **OpenAI function call** to batch summarize **all articles at once** instead of one-by-one. --- ### 💡 Quick Tip: Fast Testing Setup ```python # Change in `fetch_articles`: def fetch_articles(feed_urls, max_articles=1): articles = [] for url in feed_urls[:5]: # Limit feeds to test performance ... ``` Would you like me to help you rewrite the script using `ollama` to do a **single LLM call that combines all summaries into a cohesive broadcast**?

Replace pipeline with a local Ollama LLM

Here’s how you can **replace the HuggingFace `pipeline` summarizer with a local Ollama LLM** (like `llama3`, `mistral`, or any compatible model) to **summarize each article**, and later generate a **cohesive news broadcast** from the combined summaries. --- ### ✅ Requirements - [Ollama](https://ollama.com) installed and running locally (`ollama run mistral` or similar). - Use the `ollama` Python package (requires `pip install ollama`). - Use a model like `mistral`, `llama3`, or your preferred local model. --- ### 🔁 Full Code Changes ```python import os import yaml import feedparser from newspaper import Article from datetime import datetime import asyncio import edge_tts import ollama # new import # Load feed URLs from YAML configuration def load_feeds(config_path='feeds.yaml'): with open(config_path, 'r') as file: config = yaml.safe_load(file) return config.get('feeds', []) # Fetch and parse articles from RSS feeds def fetch_articles(feed_urls, max_articles=1): articles = [] for url in feed_urls: feed = feedparser.parse(url) for entry in feed.entries[:max_articles]: articles.append({ 'title': entry.title, 'link': entry.link, 'published': entry.get('published', 'N/A') }) return articles # Use Ollama to summarize text def summarize_with_ollama(text, model='mistral'): prompt = ( "Summarize the following news article in 3-5 sentences, focusing on the key facts, context, " "and implications. Avoid speculation and opinion.\n\n" f"{text}\n\nSummary:" ) response = ollama.chat(model=model, messages=[{"role": "user", "content": prompt}]) return response['message']['content'] # Extract and summarize article content using Ollama def summarize_articles(articles, model='mistral'): summaries = [] for article in articles: try: news_article = Article(article['link']) news_article.download() news_article.parse() text = news_article.text[:2000] # truncate to stay within token limits summary = summarize_with_ollama(text, model=model) summaries.append({ 'title': article['title'], 'link': article['link'], 'published': article['published'], 'summary': summary }) except Exception as e: print(f"Error processing article: {article['link']}\n{e}") return summaries # Use Ollama to generate a cohesive news broadcast from all summaries def generate_broadcast(summaries, model='mistral'): joined_summaries = "\n\n".join( f"Title: {s['title']}\nSummary: {s['summary']}" for s in summaries ) prompt = ( "You are a professional news anchor. Create a coherent news broadcast script based on the following article summaries. " "Weave them together into a flowing narrative, grouping related topics and keeping it informative and neutral:\n\n" f"{joined_summaries}\n\nBroadcast:" ) response = ollama.chat(model=model, messages=[{"role": "user", "content": prompt}]) return response['message']['content'] # Save summaries to markdown files def save_summaries(summaries, output_dir='summaries'): os.makedirs(output_dir, exist_ok=True) for idx, summary in enumerate(summaries, 1): filename = os.path.join(output_dir, f"summary_{idx}.md") with open(filename, 'w') as file: file.write(f"# {summary['title']}\n") file.write(f"Published: {summary['published']}\n") file.write(f"Link: {summary['link']}\n\n") file.write(f"{summary['summary']}\n") # Save full broadcast def save_digest(digest_text, output_path='digest.md'): with open(output_path, 'w') as file: file.write(digest_text) # Convert broadcast to speech async def text_to_speech(text, output_path='digest.mp3', voice="en-US-GuyNeural"): communicate = edge_tts.Communicate(text, voice=voice) await communicate.save(output_path) # Main workflow def main(): feed_urls = load_feeds() articles = fetch_articles(feed_urls, max_articles=1) summaries = summarize_articles(articles, model='mistral') save_summaries(summaries) broadcast = generate_broadcast(summaries, model='mistral') save_digest(broadcast) asyncio.run(text_to_speech(broadcast)) if __name__ == "__main__": main() ``` --- ### 🧠 Optional Enhancements - Add concurrency with `asyncio` to speed up downloads and summaries. - Use `llama3` if you're on a high-end GPU for more natural-sounding summaries. - Allow `model=` parameter from CLI or config. --- Would you like a version that uses async for fetching and summarizing to dramatically reduce wait time?

Avoid speculation and opinion.\n\n" f"{text}\n\nSummary:" ) response = ollama.chat(model=model, messages=[{"role": "user", "content": prompt}]) return response['message']['content'] # Extract and summarize article content using Ollama def summarize_articles(articles, model='mistral:latest'): summaries = [] print("\nSummarizing articles...\n") for article in tqdm(articles, desc="Summarizing", unit="article"): try: news_article = Article(article['link']) news_article.download() news_article.parse() text = news_article.text[:2000] summary = summarize_with_ollama(text, model=model) summaries.append({ 'title': article['title'], 'link': article['link'], 'published': article['published'], 'summary': summary }) except Exception as e: print(f"Error processing article: {article['link']}\n{e}") return summaries # Use Ollama to generate a cohesive news broadcast from all summaries def generate_broadcast(summaries, model='mistral-small:24b-instruct-2501-q8_0'): joined_summaries = "\n\n".join( f"Title: {s['title']}\nSummary: {s['summary']}" for s in summaries ) prompt = ( "You are a professional news anchor. Create a coherent news broadcast script based on the following article summaries. " "Weave them together into a flowing narrative, grouping related topics and keeping it informative and neutral:\n\n" f"{joined_summaries}\n\nBroadcast:" ) response = ollama.chat(model=model, messages=[{"role": "user", "content": prompt}]) return response['message']['content'] # Save summaries to markdown files def save_summaries(summaries, output_dir='summaries'): os.makedirs(output_dir, exist_ok=True) for idx, summary in enumerate(summaries, 1): filename = os.path.join(output_dir, f"summary_{idx}.md") with open(filename, 'w') as file: file.write(f"# {summary['title']}\n") file.write(f"Published: {summary['published']}\n") file.write(f"Link: {summary['link']}\n\n") file.write(f"{summary['summary']}\n") # Save full broadcast def save_digest(digest_text, output_path='digest.md'): with open(output_path, 'w') as file: file.write(digest_text) # Convert broadcast to speech async def text_to_speech(text, output_path='digest.mp3', voice="en-US-GuyNeural"): communicate = edge_tts.Communicate(text, voice=voice) await communicate.save(output_path) # Main workflow def main(): feed_urls = load_feeds() articles = fetch_articles(feed_urls, max_articles=1) summaries = summarize_articles(articles, model='mistral:latest') save_summaries(summaries) broadcast = generate_broadcast(summaries, model='mistral-small:24b-instruct-2501-q8_0') save_digest(broadcast) asyncio.run(text_to_speech(broadcast)) if __name__ == "__main__": main() ``` --- ### 🧪 Optional Improvements You Can Add Later - Add a third progress bar for TTS output (use `tqdm` with async wrappers or print `step: done`). - Add ETA or spinner using [`rich.progress`](https://rich.readthedocs.io/en/stable/progress.html) if you want fancier CLI visuals. - Show step names (e.g., “Downloading...”, “Summarizing...”) using `tqdm.write()` to avoid interfering with the bar. Let me know if you want the script to stream the summary or audio output live too.

now I do not want it to save the summaries folder and I want both the digest.md and digest.mp3 to be date and time stamped

Here’s how to update your script with your requests: --- ### ✅ Changes Made: 1. **Removed `save_summaries()` call** and its function (no more `summaries` folder). 2. **Timestamped `digest.md` and `digest.mp3` filenames** using `datetime.now().strftime()`. --- ### 🆕 Updated Sections #### 🔄 Replace These Functions: ```python # Save full broadcast with timestamped filename def save_digest(digest_text, output_dir='.'): timestamp = datetime.now().strftime('%Y-%m-%d_%H-%M-%S') filename = os.path.join(output_dir, f'digest_{timestamp}.md') with open(filename, 'w') as file: file.write(digest_text) return filename # return path for TTS to use # Convert broadcast to speech with timestamped filename async def text_to_speech(text, output_path, voice="en-US-GuyNeural"): communicate = edge_tts.Communicate(text, voice=voice) await communicate.save(output_path) ``` --- #### 🔄 Then update your `main()` function: ```python def main(): feed_urls = load_feeds() articles = fetch_articles(feed_urls, max_articles=1) summaries = summarize_articles(articles, model='mistral:latest') broadcast = generate_broadcast(summaries, model='mistral-small:24b-instruct-2501-q8_0') # Save digest and get timestamped filename digest_path = save_digest(broadcast) # Create matching timestamped mp3 path mp3_path = digest_path.replace('.md', '.mp3') asyncio.run(text_to_speech(broadcast, output_path=mp3_path)) ``` --- This gives you: - 📄 `digest_2025-06-04_15-47-00.md` - 🔊 `digest_2025-06-04_15-47-00.mp3` In the current working directory. Let me know if you want to organize them into a dated folder like `digests/2025-06-04/` automatically.
