Introduction

Laravel Shaka connects your Laravel app to Google's Shaka Packager. It turns a video file into adaptive streaming formats — HLS and DASH — using a simple, chainable API that feels like the rest of Laravel.

use Foxws\Shaka\Facades\Shaka;

$result = Shaka::fromDisk('s3')
    ->open('videos/input.mp4')
    ->addVideoStream('videos/input.mp4', 'video_1080p.mp4', ['bandwidth' => '5000000'])
    ->addVideoStream('videos/input.mp4', 'video_720p.mp4', ['bandwidth' => '3000000'])
    ->addAudioStream('videos/input.mp4', 'audio.mp4')
    ->withHlsMasterPlaylist('master.m3u8')
    ->withSegmentDuration(6)
    ->export()
    ->toDisk('export')
    ->save();

Features

Fluent API - Chain methods together, the same way you'd chain an Eloquent query.
Multiple disks - Read source files from, and write output to, local disk, S3, or any Laravel filesystem disk.
Adaptive bitrate - Produce several quality levels from one video so players can switch between them.
Encryption & DRM - Built-in support for protecting your content.
HLS & DASH - Both manifest formats are built from the same packaged segments in one pass, so there's no extra encoding step.
Testable - The package is split into small, mockable pieces, so your own tests stay fast.
Type-safe - Fully typed for PHP 8.3+.
