The typical use case for this high speed Node.js module
|
|
is to convert large images in common formats to
|
|
smaller, web-friendly JPEG, PNG and WebP images of varying dimensions.
|
|
|
|
Resizing an image is typically 4x faster than using the
|
|
quickest ImageMagick and GraphicsMagick settings.
|
|
|
|
Colour spaces, embedded ICC profiles and alpha transparency channels are all handled correctly.
|
|
Bicubic interpolation with Lanczos anti-alias filtering ensures quality is not sacrificed for speed.
|
|
|
|
As well as image resizing, operations such as
|
|
rotation, extraction, compositing and gamma correction are available.
|
|
|
|
Most Windows (x64), Linux and ARMv6+ systems do not require
|
|
the installation of any external runtime dependencies.
|
|
|
|
Use with OS X is as simple as running `brew install homebrew/science/vips`
|
|
to install the libvips dependency.
