Usage

django-sage-streaming provides two ways that you can stream videos over HTTP: 1. built-in API View: for using built-in view add sage_stream.api.urls to urls.py

from django.urls import path, include
urlpatterns = [
  ...
  path('api/', include('sage_stream.api.urls')),
  ...
]

Now you can access the stream api here: localhost:8000/api/stream?path=<you_video_path>

The settings of built-in view is available here

  1. create custom views: you can use stream functions in your application

from sage_stream.utils.stream_services import get_streaming_response

response = get_streaming_response(
    path=video_path, # path to video
    range_header=range_header, # range header extracted from request
    range_re=range_re, # range header regex pattern (default is available in sage_stream.settings.STREAM_RANGE_HEADER_REGEX_PATTERN)
    max_load_volume=max_load_volume,  # the maximum volume of the response body
)

Other functions you can use

from sage_stream.utils.file_services import file_iterator  # iterates in given file chunk by chunk in generator mode
from sage_stream.utils.log_services import log_watch_request  # creates WatchLog instance with given data

# usage examples

# log
log_watch_request(video_path, request.user.is_authenticated, ip, request.user)

# file iterator
resp = StreamingHttpResponse(
    file_iterator(
        path,
        offset=first_byte,
        length=length
    ),
    status=206,
    content_type=content_type
)

Admin

django-sage-streaming also has logging system for watching requests

It is available in admin panel when you add sage_stream to INSTALLED_APPS
