Heroku maintains an official buildpack that installs ffmpeg
.
While its original purpose is to provide ffmpeg
, as well as several PDF conversion programs, for users of Ruby on Rails, it can be used with any application and any programming language that requires the ffmpeg
command-line program.
If you'd like to maintain this repository, let me know!
A Heroku buildpack for ffmpeg that always downloads the latest static build. Unlike other build packs, I never compile anything.
Run the following from the heroku command line:
heroku buildpacks:add --index 1 https://github.com/jonathanong/heroku-buildpack-ffmpeg-latest.git
You can set a custom download URL by setting the variable FFMPEG_DOWNLOAD_URL
.
Note: This buildpack should be added before the main language buildpack (by using --index 1
),
since the application process types are calculated from the last buildpack in the list if no
Procfile
is specified.
