Meedia

A tool for creating dummy media files based on live environments., _(*1)

, _(*2)

Introduction

Meedia will provide dummy media files for dev-environments by connecting to a live setup via SSH and creating a configuration tree to generate example dummy images in the right proportions., _(*3)

Additional dummy generators can be added by configuration., _(*4)

The tool contains an meedia:install and meedia:update command, which will work fine for integrating it into review environments and continues integration systems., _(*5)

This project is still in progress and experimental. In the future following features shall be added:, _(*6)

• Add default video dummy generator
