Convert MP4 to MP3 on Heroku, using FFMPEG buildpack

Job ID: 33587885

Budget: $30 – $250 USD

I need to convert a large number of MP4 files to MP3 format and would like to deploy a very simple, single-purpose API to do this on Heroku. You can do this with JS / Node.js or Python.

- Deploy the deploy FFMPEG Buildpack on Heroku
- Implement an endpoint to receive new conversion request
- Fetch MP4 from URL provided in request
- Convert MP4 to MP3 and save file using filename provided in request
- Upload converted file via FTP

Here is a guide (and sample code) on that converts MP4 to MP3 using Heroku. Therefore, you task is to use this example and extend it to allow for new conversion request and upload output file via FTP.
