I would like to convert video into mp4 using ffmpeg and celery for the
asynchronous task. When user uploads a video, it will be for the
original_video and save it. After that I want celery to convert it into a
different version for the mp4_720 field. However I am confused on how to
apply that logic using celery.
app.models.py:
class Video(models.Model):
title = models.CharField(max_length=75)
pubdate = models.DateTimeField(default=timezone.now)
original_video = models.FileField(upload_to=get_upload_file_name)
mp4_720 = models.FileField(upload_to=get_upload_file_name,
blank=True, null=True)
converted = models.BooleanField(default=False)
app.views.py:
def upload_video(request):
if request.POST:
form = VideoForm(request.POST, request.FILES)
if form.is_valid():
video = form.save(commit=False)
video.save()
// Celery to convert the video
convert_video.delay(video)
return HttpResponseRedirect('/')
else:
form = VideoForm()
return render(request, 'upload_video.html', {
'form':form
})
app.tasks.py:
@app.task
def convert_video(video):
// Convert the original video into required format and save it in
the mp4_720 field using the following command:
//subprocess.call('ffmpeg -i (path of the original_video) (video
for mp4_720)')
// Change the converted boolean field to True
// Save
Basically my question is how to save the converted video in mp4_720. Your
help and guidance will be very much appreciated. Thank you.
