• 参考项目： ffmpeg.js

This library provides FFmpeg builds ported to JavaScript using Emscripten project. Builds are optimized for in-browser use: minimal size for faster loading, asm.js, performance tunings, etc. Though they work in Node as well.

Currently available builds (additional builds may be added in future):

• ffmpeg-webm.js - WebM encoding (VP8 & Opus encoders, popular decoders).
• ffmpeg-worker-webm.js - Web Worker version of ffmpeg-webm.js.
• ffmpeg-mp4.js - MP4 encoding (H.264 & AAC & MP3 encoders, popular decoders).
• ffmpeg-worker-mp4.js - Web Worker version of ffmpeg-mp4.js.

Note: only NPM releases contain abovementioned files.

ffmpeg.js uses the following version pattern: major.minor.9ddd, where:

• major - FFmpeg's major version number used in the builds.
• minor - FFmpeg's minor version.
• ddd - ffmpeg.js own patch version. Should not be confused with FFmpeg's patch version number.

Example: 2.7.9005

See documentation on Module object for the list of options that you can pass.

ffmpeg.js provides common module API, ffmpeg-webm.js is the default module. Add its name after the slash if you need another build, e.g. require("ffmpeg.js/ffmpeg-mp4.js").

var ffmpeg = require("ffmpeg.js");
var stdout = "";
var stderr = "";
// Print FFmpeg's version.
ffmpeg({
  arguments: ["-version"],
  print: function(data) { stdout += data + "\n"; },
  printErr: function(data) { stderr += data + "\n"; },
  onExit: function(code) {
    console.log("Process exited with code " + code);
    console.log(stdout);
  },
});

Use e.g. browserify in case of Browser.

ffmpeg.js also provides wrapper for main function with Web Worker interface to offload the work to a different process. Worker sends the following messages:

• {type: "ready"} - Worker loaded and ready to accept commands.
• {type: "run"} - Worker started the job.
• {type: "stdout", data: "<line>"} - FFmpeg printed to stdout.
• {type: "stderr", data: "<line>"} - FFmpeg printed to stderr.
• {type: "exit", data: "<code>"} - FFmpeg exited.
• {type: "done", data: "<result>"} - Job finished with some result.
• {type: "error", data: "<error description>"} - Error occurred.

You can send the following messages to the worker:

• {type: "run", ...opts} - Start new job with provided options.

var stdout = "";
var stderr = "";
var worker = new Worker("ffmpeg-worker-webm.js");
worker.onmessage = function(e) {
  var msg = e.data;
  switch (msg.type) {
  case "ready":
    worker.postMessage({type: "run", arguments: ["-version"]});
    break;
  case "stdout":
    stdout += msg.data + "\n";
    break;
  case "stderr":
    stderr += msg.data + "\n";
    break;
  case "exit":
    console.log("Process exited with code " + msg.data);
    console.log(stdout);
    worker.terminate();
    break;
  }
};

This works in Browser as is, use e.g. webworker-threads Web Worker implementation in Node.

Empscripten supports several types of file systems. ffmpeg.js uses MEMFS to store the input/output files in FFmpeg's working directory. You need to pass Array of Object to MEMFS option with the following keys:

• name (String) - File name, can't contain slashes.
• data (ArrayBuffer/ArrayBufferView/Array) - File data.

ffmpeg.js resulting object has MEMFS option with the same structure and contains files which weren't passed to the input, i.e. new files created by FFmpeg.

var ffmpeg = require("ffmpeg.js");
var fs = require("fs");
var testData = new Uint8Array(fs.readFileSync("test.webm"));
// Encode test video to VP8.
var result = ffmpeg({
  MEMFS: [{name: "test.webm", data: testData}],
  arguments: ["-i", "test.webm", "-c:v", "libvpx", "-an", "out.webm"],
  // Ignore stdin read requests.
  stdin: function() {},
});
// Write out.webm to disk.
var out = result.MEMFS[0];
fs.writeFileSync(out.name, Buffer(out.data));

You can also mount other FS by passing Array of Object to mounts option with the following keys:

• type (String) - Name of the file system.
• opts (Object) - Underlying file system options.
• mountpoint (String) - Mount path, must start with a slash, must not contain other slashes and also the following paths are blacklisted: /tmp, /home, /dev, /work. Mount directory will be created automatically before mount.

See documentation of FS.mount for more details.

var ffmpeg = require("ffmpeg.js");
ffmpeg({
  // Mount /data inside application to the current directory.
  mounts: [{type: "NODEFS", opts: {root: "."}, mountpoint: "/data"}],
  arguments: ["-i", "/data/test.webm", "-c:v", "libvpx", "-an", "/data/out.webm"],
  stdin: function() {},
});
// out.webm was written to the current directory.

Tips, use a docker container (basic ubuntu is good)

Thanks to videoconverter.js for inspiration. And of course to all great projects which made this library possible: FFmpeg, Emscripten, asm.js, node.js and many others.
