Encoders.

get_encoder_class(import_path=None)

Get the encoder class by supplying a fully qualified path to import_path.

If import_path is None the default encoder class specified in the ENCODE_DEFAULT_ENCODER_CLASS is returned.

Parameters:import_path (str) – Fully qualified path of the encoder class, for example: encode.encoders.BasicEncoder. Returns:The encoder class. Return type:class

class BaseEncoder(profile, input_path=None, output_path=None)

The base encoder.

Parameters:

• profile (EncodingProfile) – The encoding profile that configures this encoder.
• input_path (str) –
• output_path (str) –

command

The command for the encoder with the vars injected, eg. convert "/path/to/input.gif" "/path/to/output.png".

Return type:str Returns:The command.

class BasicEncoder(profile, input_path=None, output_path=None)

Encoder that uses the subprocess module.

start()

Start encoding.

Raises:EncodeError if something goes wrong during encoding.

class FFMpegEncoder(profile, input_path=None, output_path=None)

start()

Start encoding.

Raises:EncodeError if something goes wrong during encoding.
