App Intents FFmpeg-iOS operation not permitted

93 Views Asked by At

Using latest iOS and Xcode, I have an AppIntent to which Im passing a video file from iOS Shortcuts, Im using an IntentFile parameter to read that in the intent. Then Im using FFmpeg-iOS to generate a single frame from the video.

...
@Parameter(title: "Media", supportedTypeIdentifiers: ["public.image", "public.video"], inputConnectionBehavior: .connectToPreviousIntentResult)
var media: IntentFile
...
let mediaPath = media.fileURL!.absoluteString;
let posterPath = mediaPath.replacingOccurrences(of: media.filename, with: "poster.jpg")
_ = ffmpeg(["FFmpeg-iOS", "-i", mediaPath, "-frames:v", "1", posterPath])

Here is the output:

ffmpeg(_:) ["FFmpeg-iOS", "-i", "file:///var/mobile/tmp/com.apple.WorkflowKit.BackgroundShortcutRunner/IMG_2751.mov", "-frames:v", "1", "file:///var/mobile/tmp/com.apple.WorkflowKit.BackgroundShortcutRunner/poster.jpg"]

file:///var/mobile/tmp/com.apple.WorkflowKit.BackgroundShortcutRunner/IMG_2751.mov: Operation not permitted

The issue is in the last line: Operation not permitted

I also tried just writing a file to the same directory as the media file:

let str = "Super long string here"
let filename = media.fileURL!.absoluteString.replacingOccurrences(of: media.filename, with: "asd.txt")

do {
    try str.write(to: URL(string: filename)!, atomically: true, encoding: String.Encoding.utf8)
} catch {
    print(error)
}

But got the error:

Error Domain=NSCocoaErrorDomain Code=513 "You don’t have permission to save the file “asd.txt” in the folder “com.apple.WorkflowKit.BackgroundShortcutRunner”." UserInfo={NSFilePath=/var/mobile/tmp/com.apple.WorkflowKit.BackgroundShortcutRunner/asd.txt, NSUnderlyingError=0x280f09aa0 {Error Domain=NSPOSIXErrorDomain Code=1 "Operation not permitted"}}

Apparently there is a permission issue, I tried googling about "AppIntents file permissions"/"shortcut permissions"/etc but found nothing. Im not a mobile developer so Im totally clueless. The same code though works fine in the simulator, it gets the permission issue only on device.
