Community-contributed examples showing how people use Transmute in the real world:
- home-lab automations
- media pipelines
- integrations with other tools
- ...
- Fork this repository.
- Create a folder under
user-examples/with a short, descriptive name (e.g.user-examples/node-red-image-converter/). - Include at minimum:
- A
README.mdexplaining what the example does, any prerequisites, and how to run it. - The relevant scripts, configs, or code needed to reproduce it.
- A
- Open a Pull Request against
main.
user-examples/
your-example/
README.md ← what it does & how to use it
script.py ← (or .sh, .js, docker-compose.yml, flow.json, …)
...
Not sure what to contribute? Here are a few ideas to get you started:
| Idea | Description |
|---|---|
| Node-RED flow | A Node-RED flow that watches a folder and auto-converts new images via the Transmute API |
| Arr-stack script | A post-import script for Sonarr/Radarr that converts media files to a preferred format |
| Bulk converter | A shell/Python script that walks a directory tree and batch-converts every file |
| Docker sidecar | A docker-compose.yml that runs Transmute alongside another service with automatic conversion |
| Cron job | A scheduled task that converts and cleans up files on a regular interval |
| Webhook handler | A small server that listens for webhooks and triggers conversions |
- Keep examples self-contained — someone should be able to clone just your folder and get started.
- Document any environment variables, API keys, or dependencies your example needs.
- Avoid committing secrets or credentials — use placeholders instead.
- Lean on the official API examples in
../examples/for endpoint reference.
