## overlayWith
Overlay (composite) an image over the processed (resized, extracted etc.) image.
The overlay image must be the same size or smaller than the processed image.
If both `top` and `left` options are provided, they take precedence over `gravity`.
If the overlay image contains an alpha channel then composition with premultiplication will occur.
### Parameters
- `overlay` **([Buffer][1] \| [String][2])** Buffer containing image data or String containing the path to an image file.
- `options` **[Object][3]?**
- `options.gravity` **[String][2]** gravity at which to place the overlay. (optional, default `'centre'`)
- `options.top` **[Number][4]?** the pixel offset from the top edge.
- `options.left` **[Number][4]?** the pixel offset from the left edge.
- `options.tile` **[Boolean][5]** set to true to repeat the overlay image across the entire image with the given `gravity`. (optional, default `false`)
- `options.cutout` **[Boolean][5]** set to true to apply only the alpha channel of the overlay image to the input image, giving the appearance of one image being cut out of another. (optional, default `false`)
- `options.density` **[Number][4]** number representing the DPI for vector overlay image. (optional, default `72`)
- `options.raw` **[Object][3]?** describes overlay when using raw pixel data.
- `options.raw.width` **[Number][4]?**
- `options.raw.height` **[Number][4]?**
- `options.raw.channels` **[Number][4]?**
- `options.create` **[Object][3]?** describes a blank overlay to be created.
- `options.create.width` **[Number][4]?**
- `options.create.height` **[Number][4]?**
- `options.create.channels` **[Number][4]?** 3-4
- `options.create.background` **([String][2] \| [Object][3])?** parsed by the [color][6] module to extract values for red, green, blue and alpha.
### Examples
```javascript
sharp('input.png')
.rotate(180)
.resize(300)
.flatten()
.background('#ff6600')
.overlayWith('overlay.png', { gravity: sharp.gravity.southeast } )
.sharpen()
.withMetadata()
.webp( { quality: 90 } )
.toBuffer()
.then(function(outputBuffer) {
// outputBuffer contains upside down, 300px wide, alpha channel flattened
// onto orange background, composited with overlay.png with SE gravity,
// sharpened, with metadata, 90% quality WebP image data. Phew!
});
```
