The stop command in MarinaBox CLI supports custom video saving options, allowing you to specify where and how session recordings are saved.

Command Syntax

mb local stop <SESSION_ID> [--video-dir <PATH>] [--video-filename <FILENAME>]

Options:

  • --video-dir: (Optional) Specifies a custom directory to save the session recording
  • --video-filename: (Optional) Sets a custom filename for the session recording

Description

When stopping a session, you can customize how the recording is saved:
  1. Custom Directory: Specify where to save the video file
  2. Custom Filename: Choose a specific name for the video file
  3. Both Combined: Full control over the video file location and name

Example Usage

Save to Custom Directory:

mb local stop abc123xyz --video-dir /home/user/recordings

Use Custom Filename:

mb local stop abc123xyz --video-filename test-session-001.mp4

Custom Directory and Filename:

mb local stop abc123xyz --video-dir /home/user/recordings --video-filename test-session-001.mp4

Example Output:

Session stopped successfully
Video saved to: /home/user/recordings/test-session-001.mp4

Configuration Options

  1. Video Directory (--video-dir):
    • Accepts absolute paths
    • Directory must exist and be writable
    • If not specified, uses default MarinaBox videos directory
  2. Video Filename (--video-filename):
    • Must end with .mp4
    • If not specified, uses session ID as filename
    • Special characters are allowed but not recommended

Notes

  • Custom filenames must end with .mp4
  • Existing files with the same name will be overwritten
  • Directory paths should be absolute to avoid confusion
  • Both options can be used independently or together
