#  Compile ffmpeg and ffprobe for AWS Lambda

#  Run this on a fresh AWS EC2 instance
#  running same AMI as AWS Lambda:
#  https://docs.aws.amazon.com/lambda/latest/dg/current-supported-versions.html
#  AMI: amzn-ami-hvm-2017.03.1.20170812-x86_64-gp2

## Skip update as it upgrades to 2018.03 version, 
## but AWS Lambda lists older 2017.03
# sudo yum update -y


sudo yum groupinstall -y "Development Tools" "Development Libraries"

git clone https://github.com/markus-perl/ffmpeg-build-script.git

cd ffmpeg-build-script/

## disable aom codec - i fails for some reason
sed -i 's/--enable-libaom/--disable-libaom/' build-ffmpeg

## Compilation takes ~90 minutes on AWS EC2 t2.micro instance
sudo nohup ./build-ffmpeg --build &

Main compilation script is markus-perl/ffmpeg-build-script
It only supports builds for Mac OSX 10.14 64Bit XCode 10.1 and Debian 9.4 so here I introduced a little tweak disabling libaom which was failing.
