Processors¶

class smartfields.processors.BaseProcessor¶

__init__(**kwargs)¶

process(value, instance=None, field=None, dependee=None, stashed_value=None, **kwargs)¶

Parameters:

value – New value that is being assigned to the parent field.
instance – Model instance that a field is attached to.
field – Parent field instance.
dependee – Instance of a field that depends on the field. It is decided by the attname or suffix argument to the
stashed_value – This is a previous value that a dependee field was holding. Very useful for comparing it to new values.

class smartfields.processors.BaseFileProcessor¶

get_ext(format=None, **kwargs)¶

class smartfields.processors.RenameFileProcessor¶

class smartfields.processors.ExternalFileProcessor¶

class smartfields.processors.FFMPEGProcessor¶

__init__()¶

process(value, **kwargs)¶

Here is an examlple of how to convert a video to MP4 format. In this example every time MediaModel is instantiated FileDependency will automatically attach another field like attribute to the model video_mp4. Moreover, whenever a new video file is uploaded or simply assigned to a video field, it will use FFMPEGProcessor and ffmpeg to convert that video file to mp4 format and will assign it the same name as original video with mp4 suffix and file extension. While converting a video file it will set progress between 0.0 and 1.0, which can be retrieved from field’s status.

from django.db import models
from smartfields import fields, dependencies
from smartfields.processors import FFMPEGProcessor

class MediaModel(models.Model):
    video = fields.FileField(dependencies=[
        dependencies.FileDependency(suffix='mp4', processor=FFMPEGProcessor(
            vbitrate = '1M',
            maxrate = '1M',
            bufsize = '2M',
            width = 'trunc(oh*a/2)*2', # http://ffmpeg.org/ffmpeg-all.html#scale
            height = 720,
            threads = 0, # use all cores
            abitrate = '96k',
            format = 'mp4',
            vcodec = 'libx264',
            acodec = 'libfdk_aac'))])
