This works very well to export a WAV to MP3:

from pydub import AudioSegment

song = AudioSegment.from_wav("test.wav")

song.export("test.mp3", format="mp3", bitrate="256k")

but it requires to install ffmpeg which takes 338 MB with apt-get install ffmpeg:

enter image description here

I'm working on a small container, thus I'd like to avoid using 338 MB for this task.

@tink It's as ugly as having to install 338 MB to decode a MP3 ;)

@tink Thank you for your answer. This solution seems to involve C compiling, etc. so it will require to install dev tools too (build-essential) and it will be big too. I'm looking for a binary that could decode/encode MP3 from Python in a few megabytes maximum.

You don't need to include the build-environment in your container ... ?

Not 100% sure it will work, but I'll try it:

Go on https://www.ffmpeg.org/download.html, select "Linux Static Builds", this redirects to https://johnvansickle.com/ffmpeg/. Then select https://johnvansickle.com/ffmpeg/releases/ffmpeg-release-amd64-static.tar.xz, do

tar ffmpeg-release-amd64-static.tar.xz

Then:

./ffmpeg

seems to work.

It might be possible to keep only one of the 3 (or am I wrong?)

-rwxr-xr-x 1 1000 1000  63M Nov 12 02:45 ffmpeg

-rwxr-xr-x 1 1000 1000  64M Nov 12 03:05 ffmpeg-10bit

-rwxr-xr-x 1 1000 1000  63M Nov 12 02:45 ffprobe

so I think we can reduce the required size to 63M.
