node-paperclip-ffmpeg v1.0.0

node-paperclip-ffmpeg

This is a plugin that works with node-paperclip. It allows you to pass whatever options you want to ffmpeg and then stream to the file system or the cloud.

To install

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:djcj/hybrid
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install ffmpeg
# if there is a better way to install this please let me know.

# Maybe this would work for windows? https://www.wikihow.com/Install-FFmpeg-on-Windows
# I haven't tested it.

npm install node-paperclip-ffmpeg --save

Here is an example of a model that uses the mongoose plugin.

const mongoose     = require('mongoose');
const Schema       = mongoose.Schema;
const Paperclip    = require('node-paperclip');

const Video = new Schema({});

Video.plugin(Paperclip.plugins.mongoose, {
  video: {
    video: { 
      before_save: [
        {task: require('node-paperclip-ffmpeg'), commands: [{ videoBitrate: 1000 }]} 
        // hopefully you can use any of the options listed here:
        // https://github.com/fluent-ffmpeg/node-fluent-ffmpeg
        // I haven't been able to test this yet, 
      ],
      class_name: 'video',
      has_attached_file: 'video', 
      styles: [
        { original: true },
      ],
      storage: 'file'
    }
  }
})

module.exports     = mongoose.model('Video', Video);

Here is an example of an express route that uses that Video model.

const express      = require('express');
const router       = express.Router();

const Track        = require('video');
const middleware   = require('node-paperclip').middleware

router.post('/post_video',

    middleware.parse({stream: true}), 

  function (req, res) {  
    Video.create(req.body.video, function(err, doc) {
      res.redirect('/');
    });
})

    <form  class="form-horizontal" enctype="multipart/form-data" action="/post_video" method="post">

    <div>
      <label>File</label>
      <input type="file" name="video[video]" id="file">
    </div>

    <div  class="form-group">
      <div class="col-sm-offset-2 col-sm-10">
        <input class='btn btn-default' type="submit" value="Save"/>
      </div>
    </div>
    </form>
