- gm
- image processing
- http://github.com/aheckmann/gm
- Introduction
- ImageMagick and GraphicsMagick are mainly used to create, edit, and synthesize images. They can read, convert, and write pictures in many formats. Picture cutting, color replacement, application of various effects, picture rotation, combination, text, straight line, polygon, ellipse, curve, attached to picture stretching and rotation.
- The gm module implements the related functions of ImageMagick and GraphicsMagick, allowing us to easily perform image-related operations in Node
- sharp
- Mainly used for image processing, compared to ImageMagick and GraphicsMagick, the processing speed will be four or five times faster. Mainly supports JPEG, PNG, WebP, TIFF, GIF and SVG images

18.1. spritesmith
- Category: Image Processing
- Official website: http://github.com/ensighten/spritesmith
- Introduction:
- SSSprites are called css sprites by many people in China, which is a kind of web page image application processing method. It allows you to include all the sporadic pictures involved in a page into a large picture, so that when visiting the page, the loaded pictures will not be displayed slowly one by one as before .
- The spritesmith module is to generate CSSSprites from multiple images and combine them into one image
- Code:
var fs = require('fs');
var Spritesmith = require('spritesmith');
Spritesmith.run({
src: [ __dirname + '/fork.png', __dirname + '/github.png', __dirname + '/twitter.png'
],
engine: require('canvassmith')
}, function handleResult (err, result) {
if (err) { throw err;
}
fs.writeFileSync(__dirname + '/canvassmith.png', result.image); result.coordinates, result.properties; });
18.2. TinyColor
- Category: Color Manipulation
- Official website: https://github.com/bgrins/TinyColor
- Introduction:
- In daily development, we often deal with the conversion of some color values, and TinyColor comes in handy, which can easily convert color values.
- Code:
var color = tinycolor("red");
color.getFormat(); // "name"
color = tinycolor({r:255, g:255, b:255});
color.getFormat(); // "rgb"
18.3. pdfkit
- Category: Document Processing
- Official website: http://github.com/devongovett/pdfkit
- Introduction:
- At first, generating PDF files may seem like a tedious task, but with PDFKit, this task is much easier. But for the PDFKit module of Node.js, not many people know it, which is surprising. Working with PDF files is very easy thanks to the PDFKit module, which saves you from all the complicated work and provides a simple API written in CoffeeScript (also available as plain Javascript)
- Code:
var PDF = require('pdfkit');
var fs = require('fs');
var text = 'ANY_TEXT_YOU_WANT_TO_WRITE_IN_PDF_DOC';
doc = new PDF();
doc.pipe(fs.createWriteStream('PATH_TO_PDF_FILE'));
doc.text(text, 100, 100);
doc.end();
18.4. marked
- Category: Document Handling
- Official website: http://github.com/chjj/marked
- Introduction:
- Markdown is a lightweight "markup language". It has many advantages and is widely used by more and more writing enthusiasts and writers. Therefore, the need to display Markdown format comes along, and marked can handle this requirement very well.
- Code:
var marked = require('marked');
console.log(marked('I am using __markdown__.'));
// Outputs: <p>I am using <strong>markdown</strong>.</p>
