- Test-Driven Development (TDD) with pytest: Always write a failing test before writing implementation code (Red-Green-Refactor). Use
pytest
andpytest-fixtures
for test setup, execution, and teardown. - KISS (Keep It Simple, Stupid): Favor the simplest solution that meets the requirements.
- DRY (Don't Repeat Yourself): Avoid code duplication. Extract reusable logic into functions or classes.
- Standard Libraries and Tools: Utilize standard Python libraries (like
datetime
for date/time,requests
for HTTP requests, andlogging
) and external libraries, includingBeautifulSoup4
for HTML parsing, to avoid reinventing the wheel. Favor well-maintained and widely-used libraries. - YAGNI (You Ain't Gonna Need It): Don't implement features or functionality unless they are currently required.
- SOLID Principles & Extensibility: Adhere to SOLID principles, promoting maintainability, testability, and future extension. Consider potential future requi
Adaptive Streaming has become the neccessity for streaming video and audio. Unfortantely, as of this post, there isn't a whole lot of tutorials that accumulate all of the steps to get this working. Hopefully this post achieves that. This post focuses on using Amazon Web Services (AWS) to transcode for HLS and DASH and be the Content Delivery Network (CDN) that delivers the stream to your web page. We'll be using Video.js for the HTML5 player as well as javascript support libaries to make Video.js work with HLS and DASH.
