A Rails Engine for working with Mux.

Use Mux::Client to create assets and Mux::Notifications (built on the ActiveSupport::Notifications API) to handle incoming webhook requests.

Run

bundle add mux-rails

or add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'mux-rails'

and run bundle install.

Then mount the engine in your routes:

# config/routes.rb
mount Mux::Engine, at: "/mux" # provide a custom path

Remember to configure the webhooks at mux.com to point to https://yourwebsite.com/mux/events.

# config/initializers/mux.rb
MuxRuby.configure do |config|
  config.username = ENV["MUX_TOKEN_ID"]
  config.password = ENV["MUX_TOKEN_SECRET"]
end

Create a Mux asset by using the Mux::Client.create_asset(url) method, passing the url to the video. The method returns a Mux asset id.

mux_asset_id = Mux::Client.create_asset("http://foo.com/bar.mp4")
# You probably want to store mux_asset_id somewhere for future reference

Delete an asset using the Mux::Client.destroy_asset(asset_id) method, passing the asset id:

Mux::Client.destroy_asset("mux_asset_id")

Fetch an asset using the Mux::Client.get_asset(asset_id) method, passing the asset id. This returns a JSON object:

asset = Mux::Client.get_asset("mux_asset_id")
puts asset.data.status

Using a subscriber with a block we can listen to incoming events from Mux and do further work:

# config/initializers/mux.rb
# ...

Mux::Notifications.subscribe "video.asset.created" do |event|
  # handle asset created
  # event.id == mux_asset_id
end

Mux::Notifications.subscribe "video.asset.ready" do |event|
  # handle asset ready
  # event.id == mux_asset_id
end

Mux::Notifications.subscribe "video.asset.deleted" do |event|
  # handle asset deleted
  # event.id == mux_asset_id
end

The block is passed an event which is simply the incoming JSON (take a peek in fixtures for examples) wrapped in Mux::Event class based on Dry::Struct.
