# mediainfo-wrapper

node wrapper for mediainfo.

This product uses [MediaInfo](http://mediaarea.net/MediaInfo) library, Copyright (c) 2002-2014 [MediaArea.net SARL](mailto:Info@MediaArea.net)

_Warning: contains 24MiB of binaries for osx, linux, windows. You can delete the platforms you don't need_

### Usage

    npm install mediainfo-wrapper

then:

```js
var mi = require('mediainfo-wrapper');
mi('foo/bar.mkv', 'foo/bar2.avi').then(function(data) {
  for (var i in data) {
    console.log('%s parsed', data[i].file);
    console.log('MediaInfo data:', data[i]);
  }
}).catch(function (e){console.error(e)});
```

### Using child_process power

You can pass an object as first argument to use exec options. See [Node child_process](https://nodejs.org/api/child_process.html#child_process_child_process_exec_command_options_callback).

```js
require('mediainfo-wrapper')({maxBuffer: 'infinity'}, 'foo/bar.mkv', 'foo/bar2.avi').then...
```

### Glob

You can use glob to match files:

```js
require('mediainfo-wrapper')('foo/bar.mkv', 'foo2/*', 'foo3/*.ogg').then...
```

### Cleaning unneccesary binaries

You can clean unneeded binaries, with gulp and nwjs for example:

```js
var del = require('del');
var path = require('path');
var pkJson = require('./package.json');

// clean mediainfo-wrapper
gulp.task('clean:mediainfo', () => {
    return Promise.all(['linux32','linux64'].map((platform) => {
        console.log('clean:mediainfo', platform);
        const sources = path.join(releasesDir, pkJson.name, platform);
        return del([
            path.join(sources, 'node_modules/mediainfo-wrapper/lib/*'),
            path.join(sources, pkJson.name + '.app/Contents/Resources/app.nw/node_modules/mediainfo-wrapper/lib/*'),
            '!'+path.join(sources, 'node_modules/mediainfo-wrapper/lib/'+platform),
            '!'+path.join(sources, pkJson.name + '.app/Contents/Resources/app.nw/node_modules/mediainfo-wrapper/lib/'+platform)
        ]);
    }));
});
```
Or you can use bash script to do this, e.g to clean all binaries except OSX 64 you can run this from your project root:
```bash
find ./node_modules/mediainfo-wrapper/lib/* -maxdepth 1 -type d -not -name "osx64" | xargs rm -rf
```
