macOS Merge Video & Audio?

[DavidBlack]

Does anyone know of any API which I can use to merge a video (which contains no audio) and merge it with a audio track? I don't need to manipulate the time range or anything just to combine/merge them into one video file.

Thanks for any reply in advance.
P:S: I will also be very grateful if anyone includes a code a snippet with their reply

Wrote a Class

Since no one replied I did some research and wrote a class for this:
If anyone wants to accomplish this task you can use this:

-(void) mergeAudio:(NSURL *) audioURL withVideo:(NSURL *) videoURL andSaveToPathUrl:(NSString *) savePath{

    SJPowerAssertions *assertion = [[SJPowerAssertions alloc]init];
    
    [assertion createPowerAssertion:@"Merging Audio & Video Track" assertionType:SJPowerAssertionsPreventIdleSleep];
    
     AVURLAsset* audioAsset = [[AVURLAsset alloc]initWithURL:audioURL options:nil];
     AVURLAsset* videoAsset = [[AVURLAsset alloc]initWithURL:videoURL options:nil];
         
         if (![[NSFileManager defaultManager] fileExistsAtPath:[audioURL path]]){
             NSLog(@"Cannot find audio url");
             
             if (self.delegate && [self.delegate respondsToSelector:@selector(mergeFailed:)]) {
                 [self.delegate performSelectorOnMainThread:@selector(mergeFailed:) withObject:self waitUntilDone:NO];
             }
             
             return;
         }
         
         if (![[NSFileManager defaultManager] fileExistsAtPath:[videoURL path]]){
             NSLog(@"Cannot find video url");
             
             if (self.delegate && [self.delegate respondsToSelector:@selector(mergeFailed:)]) {
                 [self.delegate performSelectorOnMainThread:@selector(mergeFailed:) withObject:self waitUntilDone:NO];
             }
             
             return;
         }

         
         
    AVMutableComposition* mixComposition = [AVMutableComposition composition];
    
    AVMutableCompositionTrack *compositionCommentaryTrack = [mixComposition addMutableTrackWithMediaType:AVMediaTypeAudio
                                                                                        preferredTrackID:kCMPersistentTrackID_Invalid];
    [compositionCommentaryTrack insertTimeRange:CMTimeRangeMake(kCMTimeZero, audioAsset.duration)
                                        ofTrack:[[audioAsset tracksWithMediaType:AVMediaTypeAudio] objectAtIndex:0]
                                         atTime:kCMTimeZero error:nil];
    
   AVMutableCompositionTrack *compositionVideoTrack = [mixComposition addMutableTrackWithMediaType:AVMediaTypeVideo
                                                                                   preferredTrackID:kCMPersistentTrackID_Invalid];
    [compositionVideoTrack insertTimeRange:CMTimeRangeMake(kCMTimeZero, audioAsset.duration)

    _assetExport.shouldOptimizeForNetworkUse = YES;
