Install ffmpeg into heroku

Heroku buildpack: FFMpeg

This is a Heroku buildpack for using ffmpeg in your project.
It doesn't do anything else, so to actually compile your app you should use heroku-buildpack-multi to combine it with a real buildpack.

Usage

To use this buildpack, you should prepare .buildpacks file that contains this buildpack url and your real buildpack url.

$ ls
.buildpacks
...

$ cat .buildpacks
https://github.com/shunjikonishi/heroku-buildpack-ffmpeg
https://github.com/heroku/heroku-buildpack-play

$ heroku create --buildpack https://github.com/ddollar/heroku-buildpack-multi

$ git push heroku master
...

You can verify installing ffmpeg by following command.

$ heroku run "ffmpeg -version"

Hacking

If you want to use your own ffmpeg binary, fork and rewrite following line.

Register buildpack in buildpack registry

My name is Jon Byrum and I’m a product manager at Heroku. Your buildpack is one of the top 200 most popular buildpacks on Heroku!

I would like to invite you to publish your buildpack early in our Buildpack Registry, before it is made available to the general public (expected early July).

To register your buildpack, visit: https://addons-next.heroku.com/buildpacks
Documentation: https://devcenter.heroku.com/articles/buildpack-registry

Why register?

• By registering early you’ll be able to grab your preferred namespace for the buildpack
• After registering, your buildpack will be available to all Heroku users when they run heroku buildpacks:search. In the future, we will only display registered buildpacks on elements.heroku.com/buildpacks
• The Buildpack Registry makes it easy for you to publish a new version of your buildpack, as well as roll back if there are errors

Recommended naming conventions:

• We recommend that you use the same namespace (e.g., jbyrum) with Buildpack Registry that you use on GitHub
• In general, avoid using "buildpack" in the name of your registered buildpack
  • For example: If your Github repo is github.com/foobar/heroku-buildpack-elixir, then we recommend a name like "foobar/elixir"

It would be greatly appreciated if you could publish before June 18th, as we prepare to make the feature publicly available. Registering a buildpack should take approximately 5 minutes.

If you have any questions about registering (or run into any issues), please email:
[email protected]

Cannot read temporary files in /tmp/

I created a nodejs application hosted on heroku which uses imagemagick. I am doing this operation:

require('child_process').exec(`convert -quiet -delay 1 output.avi ${gif}`);

This should convert output.avi (which is present) to a gif file. In this case, gif is "../gifs/xstrycatdq.gif". This command works perfectly on my local windows machine.

I have installed heroku buildpack:

• https://github.com/ello/heroku-buildpack-imagemagick
• https://github.com/weibeld/heroku-buildpack-graphviz

The error I am receiving is:

Command failed: convert -quiet -delay 1 output.avi ../gifs/xstrycatdq.gif
convert: DelegateFailed 'ffmpeg' -nostdin -v -1 -vframes %S -i '%i' -vcodec pam -an -f rawvideo -y '%u.pam' 2> '%Z'' @ error/delegate.c/InvokeDelegate/1919.
convert: UnableToOpenBlobmagick-58hSkEGyYprU5c.pam': No such file or directory @ error/blob.c/OpenBlob/2705.
convert: NoImagesDefined `../gifs/xstrycatdq.gif' @ error/convert.c/ConvertImageCommand/3257.
It seems that the /tmp/ directory can't be written to or anything. I also tried to mkdir /tmp/ but bash tells me that this dir already exists.

I have also tried changing the imagemagick's temp directory with the environment variable by doing export MAGICK_TMPDIR="temp".

Any help?

Ffmpeg vulnerability

This Ffmpeg vulnerability was recently discovered:

Wondering if the compiled version for Heroku includes the --disable-network configure flag described.

update ffmpeg to 2.5

I'd like to update the buildpack to 2.5 ffmpeg. How did you compile/get binaries? Thx.

I'm trying to do the following.

• Download source

~ $ DOWNLOAD_URL="https://ffmpeg.org/releases/ffmpeg-2.5.tar.gz"
~ $ curl -L --silent $DOWNLOAD_URL | tar xz

• Compile with the same configure as local

cd ffmpeg-2.5/
./configure --prefix=/Volumes/Ramdisk/sw --enable-gpl --enable-pthreads --enable-version3 --enable-libspeex --enable-libvpx --disable-decoder=libvpx --enable-libmp3lame --enable-libtheora --enable-libvorbis --enable-libx264 --enable-avfilter --enable-libopencore_amrwb --enable-libopencore_amrnb --enable-filters --enable-libgsm --enable-libvidstab --enable-libx265 --arch=x86_64 --enable-runtime-cpudetect

• Copy file from the server
  just copy binaries to static and download

There is a problem with compilation step

./configure
yasm/nasm not found or too old. Use --disable-yasm for a crippled build.
