  • Multilang : améliorer l’interface pour les blocs multilingues

    18 février 2011, par

    Multilang est un plugin supplémentaire qui n’est pas activé par défaut lors de l’initialisation de MediaSPIP.
    Après son activation, une préconfiguration est mise en place automatiquement par MediaSPIP init permettant à la nouvelle fonctionnalité d’être automatiquement opérationnelle. Il n’est donc pas obligatoire de passer par une étape de configuration pour cela.

  • Automated installation script of MediaSPIP

    25 avril 2011, par

    To overcome the difficulties mainly due to the installation of server side software dependencies, an "all-in-one" installation script written in bash was created to facilitate this step on a server with a compatible Linux distribution.
    You must have access to your server via SSH and a root account to use it, which will install the dependencies. Contact your provider if you do not have that.
    The documentation of the use of this installation script is available here.

  • Emballe médias : à quoi cela sert ?

    4 février 2011, par

    Ce plugin vise à gérer des sites de mise en ligne de documents de tous types.

  • Using node-media-server and FFMPEG, Transmuxing ends when rtmp is publishing with no errors

    8 juillet 2023, par Sina KH

    I've configured and used node-media-server library on 2 of my test servers and it works great, but when I'm trying to make it work on production, it creates directories for different qualities, but does not generate .ts and .m3u8 for them. It only creates original hls outputs.
My logs show that instantly after [rtmp publish] Handle video. and [rtmp publish] Handle audio. files, it receives [rtmp publish] Close stream. id=Y8KK9U3D streamPath=/live/15_1280 streamId=1 and [rtmp play] Close stream. id=7MC9Q65N streamPath=/live/15_1280 streamId=1
Please note that everything is the same on my test and prod servers, and with no known cause, it fails on some of my servers and works on some other ones. I've tried both deploying dockerized and not dockerized versions, with different node versions.
FFMPEG version is also the same on all systems.

  • How to move font in ffmpeg ?

    16 mai 2023, par speedyes

    I want to move font from mkv container a couple pixels up so I can see the text, because when I scaled up the font it didn't change it's position and it's now too low. Also, is there a way to make ffmpeg automatically word-wrap my text so it doesn't come out of my screen ?

    


    Here's syntax I used :

    


    ffmpeg -i 'Lain01.mkv' -vf 'scale=320:240:force_original_aspect_ratio=decrease,pad=320:240:x=(320-iw)/2:y=(240-ih)/2:color=black,format=yuv420p,fps=12,subtitles=Lain01.mkv:force_style=Fontsize=24' -c:v mpeg4 -b:v 384k -c:a aac -b:a 256k -ac 2 'Lain Episode 1.mp4'


    


  • Track API calls in Node.js with Piwik

    25 juin 2014, par Frederic Hemberger — Community, API, Node.js

    When using Piwik for analytics, sometimes you don’t want to track only your website’s visitors. Especially as modern web services usually offer RESTful APIs, why not use Piwik to track those requests as well ? It really gives you a more accurate view on how users interact with your services : In which ways do your clients use your APIs compared to your website ? Which of your services are used the most ? And what kind of tools are consuming your API ?

    If you’re using Node.js as your application platform, you can use piwik-tracker. It’s a lightweight wrapper for Piwik’s own Tracking HTTP API, which helps you tracking your requests.

    First, start with installing piwik-tracker as a dependency for your project :

    npm install piwik-tracker --save

    Then create a new tracking instance with your Piwik URL and the site ID of the project you want to track. As Piwik requires a fully qualified URL for analytics, add it in front of the actual request URL.

    var PiwikTracker = require('piwik-tracker');

    // Initialize with your site ID and Piwik URL
    var piwik = new PiwikTracker(1, 'http://mywebsite.com/piwik.php');

    // Piwik works with absolute URLs, so you have to provide protocol and hostname
    var baseUrl = 'http://example.com';

    // Track a request URL:
    piwik.track(baseUrl + req.url);

    Of cause you can do more than only tracking simple URLs : All parameters offered by Piwik’s Tracking HTTP API Reference are supported, this also includes custom variables. During Piwik API calls, those are referenced as JSON string, so for better readability, you should use JSON.stringify({}) instead of manual encoding.

    piwik.track({
       // The full request URL
       url: baseUrl + req.url,

       // This will be shown as title in your Piwik backend
       action_name: 'API call',

       // User agent and language settings of the client
       ua: req.header('User-Agent'),
       lang: req.header('Accept-Language'),

       // Custom request variables
       cvar: JSON.stringify({
         '1': ['API version', 'v1'],
         '2': ['HTTP method', req.method]
       })
    });

    As you can see, you can pass along arbitrary fields of a Node.js request object like HTTP header fields, status code or request method (GET, POST, PUT, etc.) as well. That should already cover most of your needs.

    But so far, all requests have been tracked with the IP/hostname of your Node.js application. If you also want the API user’s IP to show up in your analytics data, you have to override Piwik’s default setting, which requires your secret Piwik token :

    function getRemoteAddr(req) {
       if (req.ip) return req.ip;
       if (req._remoteAddress) return req._remoteAddress;
       var sock = req.socket;
       if (sock.socket) return sock.socket.remoteAddress;
       return sock.remoteAddress;
    }

    piwik.track({
       // …
       token_auth: '<YOUR SECRET API TOKEN>',
       cip: getRemoteAddr(req)
    });

    As we have now collected all the values that we wanted to track, we’re basically done. But if you’re using Express or restify for your backend, we can still go one step further and put all of this together into a custom middleware, which makes tracking requests even easier.

    First we start off with the basic code of our new middleware and save it as lib/express-piwik-tracker.js :

    // ./lib/express-piwik-tracker.js
    var PiwikTracker = require('piwik-tracker');

    function getRemoteAddr(req) {
       if (req.ip) return req.ip;
       if (req._remoteAddress) return req._remoteAddress;
       var sock = req.socket;
       if (sock.socket) return sock.socket.remoteAddress;
       return sock.remoteAddress;
    }

    exports = module.exports = function analytics(options) {
       var piwik = new PiwikTracker(options.siteId, options.piwikUrl);

       return function track(req, res, next) {
           piwik.track({
               url: options.baseUrl + req.url,
               action_name: 'API call',
               ua: req.header('User-Agent'),
               lang: req.header('Accept-Language'),
               cvar: JSON.stringify({
                 '1': ['API version', 'v1'],
                 '2': ['HTTP method', req.method]
               }),
               token_auth: options.piwikToken,
               cip: getRemoteAddr(req)

           });
           next();
       }
    }

    Now to use it in our application, we initialize it in our main app.js file :

    // app.js
    var express      = require('express'),
       piwikTracker = require('./lib/express-piwik-tracker.js'),
       app          = express();

    // This tracks ALL requests to your Express application
    app.use(piwikTracker({
       siteId    : 1,
       piwikUrl  : 'http://mywebsite.com/piwik.php',
       baseUrl   : 'http://example.com',
       piwikToken: '<YOUR SECRET API TOKEN>'
    }));

    This will now track each request going to every URL of your API. If you want to limit tracking to a certain path, you can also attach it to a single route instead :

    var tracker = piwikTracker({
       siteId    : 1,
       piwikUrl  : 'http://mywebsite.com/piwik.php',
       baseUrl   : 'http://example.com',
       piwikToken: '<YOUR SECRET API TOKEN>'
    });

    router.get('/only/track/me', tracker, function(req, res) {
       // Your code that handles the route and responds to the request
    });

    And that’s everything you need to track your API users alongside your regular website users.
