StreamPot is a project that provides scaffolding for transforming media in your app (e.g. trimming a video, stripping the audio from a video, transcoding a video from mp4 to webp).

We are building this because an increasing number of projects are transforming media as part of their workflow.

If you want a no-setup way to run this, check out StreamPot.

Visit the Installation (server) page for self-hosting instructions. If you'd like to use the hosted version, please sign up and give it a try.

Note: You should only run this from your server.

pnpm i @streampot/client

import StreamPot from '@streampot/client'
const EXAMPLE_VID = 'https://sample-videos.com/video321/mp4/240/big_buck_bunny_240p_1mb.mp4'

const client = new StreamPot({
    baseUrl: 'http://127.0.0.1:3000', // adjust if you are serving in production
})

const clipJob = await client.input(EXAMPLE_VID)
    .setStartTime(1)
    .setDuration(2)
    .output('output.mp4')
    .run()
const jobId = clipJob.id

// In production you should set up a poll.
setTimeout(async () => {
    const job = await client.checkStatus(jobId)
    if (job.status === 'completed'){
        console.log(job.output_url)
    } 
},10000) // wait 10 seconds

This project is heavily reliant on the amazing work of the ffmpeg and fluent-ffmpeg teams
