IAF Plugin AWS MediaPackage

The Eyevinn Ingest Application Framework (Eyevinn IAF) is a framework to simplify building VOD ingest applications. A framework of open source plugins to integrate with various transcoding and streaming providers. This is the plugin for just-in-time video packaging of files from an S3 bucket.

Installation

To install the plugin in your project, run the following command.

npm install --save @eyevinn/iaf-plugin-aws-mediapackage

Using the module in your application based on Eyevinn IAF

To use the AWS upload module in your Eyevinn IAF setup, your index.ts should look like this:

// other imports
import {AWSUploadModule} from "@eyevinn/iaf-plugin-aws-mediapackage";

const awsUploader = new AWSUploadModule(/** args **/);
const fileWatcher = /** initialize your file watcher of choice**/

fileWatcher.onAdd(awsUploader.onFileAdd);

Plugin Documentation

AWSUploadModule

Default plugin export. This class is plug-and-play with the Ingest Application Framework, as described in the previous section.

Methods

constructor(roleArn: string, packagingGroupId: string, logger: winston.Logger)

Creates a new AWSUploadModule object. You will need to provide a role ARN, as well as the MediaPackage packagingGroupId. A winston logger is also needed. These parameters are used to initialize the sub-modules.

onFileAdd = (filePath: string, readStream: Readable).

Method that is executed when a file is added to the directory being watched. filePath is the source ARN of the file in the S3 bucket that MediaPackage will repackage, and readStream is a Readable stream of the file data. Any file watcher plugins are required to provide these. The method dispatches a repackaging job to the MediaPackage endpoint.

MediaPackageDispatcher

Sub-module that dispatches MediaPackage video packaging jobs.

Methods

constructor(mediaPackagerEndpoint: string, region: string, roleArn: string, packagingGroupId: string, logger: winston.Logger)

Instantiates a new MediaPackageDispatcher. logging is injected in order to avoid multiple logging objects. In most cases, the parameters will be passed down to the parent AwsUploadModule.

async dispatch(sourceArn: string)

Dispatches a MediaPackage repackaging job. Jobs are executed with the settings specified in packagingGroup defined by the packagingGroupId. sourceArn is the S3 source ARN for the input file.
