Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

Readme

ffprobe-static

Static ffprobe (from the ffmpeg project) binaries for macOS, Linux, Windows.

Supports macOS (64-bit and arm64), Linux (32 and 64-bit, armhf, arm64), Windows (32 and 64-bit). The ffmpeg version currently used is 6.0.

npm version minimum Node.js version

Note: The version of ffprobe-static follows SemVer. When releasing new versions, we do not consider breaking changes in ffprobe itself, but only the JS interface (see below). For example, [email protected] might download ffprobe 5.0. To prevent an ffprobe-static upgrade downloading backwards-incompatible ffprobe versions, use a strict version range for it or use a lockfile.

Installation

$ npm install ffprobe-static

Note: During installation, it will download the appropriate ffprobe binary from the b6.0 GitHub release. Use and distribution of the binary releases of ffprobe are covered by their respective license.

Custom binaries url

By default, the ffprobe binary will get downloaded from https://github.com/eugeneware/ffprobe-static/releases/download. To customise this, e.g. when using a mirror, set the FFPROBE_BINARIES_URL environment variable.

export FFPROBE_BINARIES_URL=https://cdn.npmmirror.com/binaries/ffprobe-static
npm install ffprobe-static

Electron & other cross-platform packaging tools

Because ffprobe-static will download a binary specific to the OS/platform, you need to purge node_modules before (re-)packaging your app for a different OS/platform (read more in #35).

Example Usage

Returns the path of a statically linked ffprobe binary on the local filesystem.

const pathToFfprobe = require('ffprobe-static');
console.log(pathToFfprobe)
// /Users/j/playground/node_modules/ffprobe-static/ffprobe

Check the example script for a more thorough example.
