Usage

Video chunk upload

const fs = require('fs');
const videoUploadEngine = require('facebook-business-video-upload').video;
 
const options = {
  token: "TOKEN",
  id: "ID", // page_id or user_id or event_id or group_id 
  stream: fs.createReadStream('./sample.mp4'), // Video file path,
  title: "test video",
  description: "test description"
};
 
videoUploadEngine(options)
      .then((response) => {
          console.log('\n **********************');
          console.log('\n Video Upload Result : ', response);  //  { success: true, video_id: '987654321' }
          console.log('\n **********************');
}).catch((error) => {
          console.error(error);
});

Want to resume if your process stopped in between upload ? try this...

const fs = require('fs');
const videoUploadEngine = require('facebook-business-video-upload').video;
 
const options = {
  token: "TOKEN",
  id: "ID", // page_id or user_id or event_id or group_id 
  stream: './sample.mp4', // Video file path, note: direct path only work if you give retry options!
  title: "test video",
  description: "test description"
};

let uploadCacheFilePath = path.join(__dirname, 'cache'); // Cache file folder to store cache data..
let uploadCacheFile = path.join(uploadCacheFilePath,`test_video_${Date.now()}.txt`); // create uniq name for cache file.
let uniqData = { id : 7, video_name : 'test video' }; // Uniq details about your video for future use.

let retryObj = {
 status: false, // It will false when uploading new one.
 path: uploadCacheFile, // Uniq file with dir path for store the cache data about your video upload.
 uniqId: null // You can pass any uniq data or json object about this video file. ex.video uniq id from db 
};

videoUploadEngine(options, retryObj)
      .then((response) => {
          console.log('\n **********************');
          console.log('\n Video Upload Result : ', response);  //  { success: true, video_id: '987654321' }
          console.log('\n **********************');
}).catch((error) => {
          console.error(error);
});

fs.readdir(uploadCacheFilePath, function (err, files) { // Reading dir to check any process pending in cache.
    console.log("\n Pending cache list", files);
    //handling error
    if (err) {
        return console.log('Unable to scan directory: ' + err);
    }
    if (files && files.length) { // If any file exist we can proceed to retry.
        files.forEach(function (file) {
            let readCacheFile = path.join(uploadCacheFilePath,file); // Adding file name with catch file path to read cache.
            fs.readFile(readCacheFile, (err, response) => {
                try {
                    let result = JSON.parse(response.toString()); // Parse data from cache.
                    if (checkValidRetryData(result)) { // Check any data missing for resume upload.

                      stream: result.args.stream // Video file path, note: direct path only work if you give retry options!
                    };
                    let retryObj = {
                     status: true, // It will true for retry this cache file.
                     path: readCacheFile, // Uniq file with dir path for store the cache data about your video upload.

                                 console.log('\n **********************');
                       }).catch((error) => {

Image upload

const fs = require('fs');
const imageUploadEngine = require('facebook-business-video-upload').image;

function imageTobase64(filePath) {
    // read binary data
    let bitmap = fs.readFileSync(filePath);
    // convert binary data to base64 encoded string
    return new Buffer(bitmap).toString('base64'); // this may give warning. Now working on it    
    
}
const options = {
  token: "TOKEN",
  id: "ID", // page_id or user_id or event_id or group_id 
  bytes: imageTobase64('./test.jpg') // Image data in bytes (base64)
};
 
imageUploadEngine(options)
      .then((response) => {
          console.log('\n **********************');
          console.log('\n Image Upload Result : ', response);  //  { images: { hash: 'b4345sLKndf34245FDKLn', url:'https://scontent.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t21/32424545gf.jpg?cd=42&fdf=42' } } }
