VideoSink Class

Video sink allows for video and audio to be recorded to the Video Analyzer service. The recorded video can be played from anywhere and further managed from the cloud. Due to security reasons, a given Video Analyzer edge module instance can only record content to new video entries, or existing video entries previously recorded by the same module. Any attempt to record content to an existing video which has not been created by the same module instance will result in failure to record.

All required parameters must be populated in order to send to Azure.

VideoSink

Constructor

VideoSink(*, name: str, inputs: List[NodeInput], video_name: str, local_media_cache_path: str, local_media_cache_maximum_size_mi_b: str, video_creation_properties: VideoCreationProperties | None = None, video_publishing_options: VideoPublishingOptions | None = None, **kwargs)

Keyword-Only Parameters

Name Description
name
str

Required. Node name. Must be unique within the topology.

inputs
list[<xref:azure.media.videoanalyzer.edge.models.NodeInput>]

Required. An array of upstream node references within the topology to be used as inputs for this node.

video_name
str

Required. Name of a new or existing Video Analyzer video resource used for the media recording.

video_creation_properties
<xref:azure.media.videoanalyzer.edge.models.VideoCreationProperties>

Optional video properties to be used in case a new video resource needs to be created on the service.

video_publishing_options
<xref:azure.media.videoanalyzer.edge.models.VideoPublishingOptions>

Optional video publishing options to be used for changing publishing behavior of the output video.

local_media_cache_path
str

Required. Path to a local file system directory for caching of temporary media files. This will also be used to store content which cannot be immediately uploaded to Azure due to Internet connectivity issues.

local_media_cache_maximum_size_mi_b
str

Required. Maximum amount of disk space that can be used for caching of temporary media files. Once this limit is reached, the oldest segments of the media archive will be continuously deleted in order to make space for new media, thus leading to gaps in the cloud recorded content.

Variables

Name Description
type
str

Required. Type discriminator for the derived types.Constant filled by server.

name
str

Required. Node name. Must be unique within the topology.

inputs
list[<xref:azure.media.videoanalyzer.edge.models.NodeInput>]

Required. An array of upstream node references within the topology to be used as inputs for this node.

video_name
str

Required. Name of a new or existing Video Analyzer video resource used for the media recording.

video_creation_properties
<xref:azure.media.videoanalyzer.edge.models.VideoCreationProperties>

Optional video properties to be used in case a new video resource needs to be created on the service.

video_publishing_options
<xref:azure.media.videoanalyzer.edge.models.VideoPublishingOptions>

Optional video publishing options to be used for changing publishing behavior of the output video.

local_media_cache_path
str

Required. Path to a local file system directory for caching of temporary media files. This will also be used to store content which cannot be immediately uploaded to Azure due to Internet connectivity issues.

local_media_cache_maximum_size_mi_b
str

Required. Maximum amount of disk space that can be used for caching of temporary media files. Once this limit is reached, the oldest segments of the media archive will be continuously deleted in order to make space for new media, thus leading to gaps in the cloud recorded content.

Methods

as_dict

Return a dict that can be JSONify using json.dump.

Advanced usage might optionally use a callback as parameter:

Key is the attribute name used in Python. Attr_desc is a dict of metadata. Currently contains 'type' with the msrest type and 'key' with the RestAPI encoded key. Value is the current value in this object.

The string returned will be used to serialize the key. If the return type is a list, this is considered hierarchical result dict.

See the three examples in this file:

  • attribute_transformer

  • full_restapi_key_transformer

  • last_restapi_key_transformer

If you want XML serialization, you can pass the kwargs is_xml=True.

deserialize

Parse a str using the RestAPI syntax and return a model.

enable_additional_properties_sending
from_dict

Parse a dict using given key extractor return a model.

By default consider key extractors (rest_key_case_insensitive_extractor, attribute_key_case_insensitive_extractor and last_rest_key_case_insensitive_extractor)

is_xml_model
serialize

Return the JSON that would be sent to azure from this model.

This is an alias to as_dict(full_restapi_key_transformer, keep_readonly=False).

If you want XML serialization, you can pass the kwargs is_xml=True.

validate

Validate this model recursively and return a list of ValidationError.
