TypeScript image processor

This library provides basic image processing on the frontend side (inside the web browser) for use in TypeScript or Angular projects.

Available processing functions:

• applyExifOrientation
• resize
• sharpen
• rotate
• mirror
• noop

For best results I recommend to always use sharpen after resize - that's what Photoshop does, too ;)

Available File/HTMLImageElement utility functions:

• fileToBase64
• fileToArrayBuffer
• base64ToImgElement
• base64ToArrayBuffer

Advantages

• Smooth resizing of images in multiple resize-steps
• Prevents error on iOS Total canvas memory use exceeds the maximum limit by using only one canvas for everything
• Tree shakable - if you use a bundler like Webpack it will not include unused functions in your project

Usage

npm i ts-image-processor -S

import { getBlobForFile, imageProcessor, resize, sharpen, output } from 'ts-image-processor';

// If you have a file from <input>, convert it to base64-string first
getBlobForFile(file).then(base64 => {
  // Use any of the functions with an existing blob (base64-string)
  imageProcessor
    .src(base64)
    .pipe(
      resize({maxWidth: 800, maxHeight: 800}),
      sharpen(),
    )
    .then(processedBase64 => {
      // Do whatever with your happy result :)
    });
});
