A composable FFmpeg-based video editing library
Project description
🎬 Video Editing Library
A modular, pluggable video editing library built with Python and FFmpeg. Supports programmatic video transformations like text (watermark) overlay and audio merging using strategy and interpreter design patterns.
🚀 Features
- Add watermark (text overlay) to videos
- Overlay audio tracks onto videos
- Process nested JSON editing instructions
- In-memory and tempfile-based FFmpeg pipelines
- Clean, extendable strategy-based architecture
- Custom command interpreter for complex video editing workflows
- Developer-friendly logging using
colorlog
📦 Installation
From PyPI (coming soon)
pip install video-editing-lib
From source
git clone https://github.com/your-username/video-editing-lib.git
cd video-editing-lib
python3 -m venv .venv

pip install -e .
🧪 Testing
pytest # all tests
pytest tests/unit # only unit tests
pytest tests/integration # only integration tests
🔧 Usage Example
from video_editor import process_json_command
command = {
"operation": "overlay",
"left": {
"operation": "overlay",
"left": {
"type": "video",
"bytes": open("video.mp4", "rb").read()
},
"right": {
"type": "text",
"value": "Watermark Text",
"position": "bottom"
}
},
"right": {
"type": "audio",
"bytes": open("audio.mp3", "rb").read()
}
}
result = process_json_command(command)
with open("output.mp4", "wb") as f:
f.write(result["bytes"].getvalue())
