JSPM – recordrtc@0.0.4

Package Exports

recordrtc

This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (recordrtc) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

Readme

RecordRTC to Node.js

npm install recordrtc

// to run!
node ./node_modules/recordrtc/index.js

This experiment:

Records audio/video separately as wav/webm
POST both files in single HttpPost-Request to Node.js (FormData)
Node.js code saves both files into disk
Node.js code invokes ffmpeg to merge wav/webm in single "webm" file
The merged webm file's URL is returned using same HTTP-callback for playback!

Windows Batch File (`merger.bat`)

merger.bat file is executed to invoke ffmpeg functionalities on windows:

@echo off
"C:\ffmpeg\bin\ffmpeg.exe" -i %1 -i %2  %3

It is assumed that you already have installed ffmpeg on your system. Though, EXE file is hard-coded to "C:\ffmpeg\bin\ffmpeg.exe" however you can easily edit it according to your own installations.

`.sh` file

merger.sh file is executed to invoke ffmpeg functionalities on Mac/Linux/etc.

ffmpeg -i video-file.webm -i audio-file.wav -map 0:0 -map 1:0 output-file-name.webm

Using Linux; ffmpeg installation is super-easy! You can install DEVEL packages as well.
