Parses [MediaInfo](https://mediaarea.net/en/MediaInfo) output with Javascript!

## Usage

### Quickstart

1. You can directly process a file path

    ```js
    import {exec as mediainfoExec} from 'mediainfo-parser';

    const mediapath = '~/Downloads/big_buck_bunny_1080p_h264.mov';
    mediainfoExec(mediapath, (err, obj) => {
      console.log(obj);
    })
    ```

1. You can also manually parse output (currently, only `XML` is supported)

    ```js
    import {exec} from 'child_process';
    import {parse as mediainfoParse} from 'mediainfo-parser';

    const mediapath = '~/Downloads/big_buck_bunny_1080p_h264.mov';
    exec(`mediainfo --Full --Output=XML "${mediapath}"`, (stderr, stdout) => {
      mediainfoParser(stdout, (err, obj) => {
        console.log(obj);
      });
    })
    ```
