Convert videos to proper formats for HTML5 video on Linux shell using ffmpeg. Will probably convert this to a bash script later, but for the time being, here's some examples. Not sure there have actually sensible dimensions and bitrates for web video.
# webm
ffmpeg -i IN -f webm -vcodec libvpx -acodec libvorbis -ab 128000 -crf 22 -s 640x360 OUT.webm
# mp4
ffmpeg -i IN -acodec aac -strict experimental -ac 2 -ab 128k -vcodec libx264 -vpre slow -f mp4 -crf 22 -s 640x360 OUT.mp4
# ogg (if you want to support older Firefox)
ffmpeg2theora IN -o OUT.ogv -x 640 -y 360 --videoquality 5 --audioquality 0 --frontend

Migrating from Amazon Linux to Amazon Linux 2 with Elastic Beanstalk and Node.js

This file is a log of everything I've encountered when trying to migrate a Node.js, Elastic Beanstalk application from the Amazon Linux platform to the Amazon Liunx 2 platform. Here's why you should migrate:

  1. LTS support up to 2023 source
  2. The Amazon Linux AMI's end-of-life is December, 2020 source
  3. Amazon Linux 2 has some big package upgrades (GCC, Glibc, etc.)
  4. Elastic Beanstalk also has some upgrades on top of Amazon Linux 2 (e.g. faster deploys)

Challenges

Disabling NPM install

Opening and closing an SSH tunnel in a shell script the smart way

Opening and closing an SSH tunnel in a shell script the smart way

I recently had the following problem:

  • From an unattended shell script (called by Jenkins), run a command-line tool that accesses the MySQL database on another host.
  • That tool doesn't know that the database is on another host, plus the MySQL port on that host is firewalled and not accessible from other machines.

We didn't want to open the MySQL port to the network, but it's possible to SSH from the Jenkins machine to the MySQL machine. So, basically you would do something like

ssh -L 3306:localhost:3306 remotehost

and the way we access it is changing
