Dragonfly Video

Wraps common video-related tasks into Dragonfly analysers and processors.

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'dragonfly_video'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install dragonfly_video

Dependencies

The gem relies on ffmpeg (and ruby implementation streamio-ffmpeg) for reading metadata and generating screenshots of video files.

On a Mac you can install ffmpeg with homebrew: brew install ffmpeg.

Usage

Add the :video plugin to your Dragonfly config block:

Dragonfly.app.configure do
  plugin :video
end
