## Installing

```shell

npm install audio-conversion-queue

```

## Usage

```js

const createConversionQueue = require('audio-conversion-queue')

const queue = createConversionQueue()

queue.convert('/path/to/audio.m4a', (err, dest, purge) => {

	if (err) return console.error(err)

	console.info('the converted MP3 file is at', dest)

	// do something with the file…

	// when you don't need it anymore, delete it:

	purge((err) => {

		if (err) console.error(err)

	})

})

```

## API

```js

const queue = createConversionQueue(srcToDest = defaultSrcToDest, ffmpegArgs = ['-acodec', 'mp3', '-format', 'mp3'])

```

Pass a custom `createConversionQueue(src, cb)` function that, given the source path `src` (e.g. `/path/to/audio.m4a`), calls `cb` with the path of the MP3 destination file (e.g. `/path/to/audio-4f2f.mp3`). You could also use the hash of the source file.

Pass an array of strings for `ffmpegArgs` to customize the conversion. Refer to the [`ffmpeg` docs](https://ffmpeg.org/ffmpeg.html) for details.
