## composite
Composite image(s) over the processed (resized, extracted etc.) image.
The images to composite must be the same size or smaller than the processed image.
If both `top` and `left` options are provided, they take precedence over `gravity`.
The `blend` option can be one of `clear`, `source`, `over`, `in`, `out`, `atop`,
`dest`, `dest-over`, `dest-in`, `dest-out`, `dest-atop`,
`xor`, `add`, `saturate`, `multiply`, `screen`, `overlay`, `darken`, `lighten`,
`colour-dodge`, `color-dodge`, `colour-burn`,`color-burn`,
`hard-light`, `soft-light`, `difference`, `exclusion`.
More information about blend modes can be found at
[https://libvips.github.io/libvips/API/current/libvips-conversion.html#VipsBlendMode][1]
and [https://www.cairographics.org/operators/][2]
### Parameters
* `images` **[Array][3]<[Object][4]>** Ordered list of images to composite
* `images[].input` **([Buffer][5] | [String][6])?** Buffer containing image data, String containing the path to an image file, or Create object (see below)
* `images[].input.create` **[Object][4]?** describes a blank overlay to be created.
* `images[].input.create.width` **[Number][7]?**
* `images[].input.create.height` **[Number][7]?**
* `images[].input.create.channels` **[Number][7]?** 3-4
* `images[].input.create.background` **([String][6] | [Object][4])?** parsed by the [color][8] module to extract values for red, green, blue and alpha.
* `images[].blend` **[String][6]** how to blend this image with the image below. (optional, default `'over'`)
* `images[].gravity` **[String][6]** gravity at which to place the overlay. (optional, default `'centre'`)
* `images[].top` **[Number][7]?** the pixel offset from the top edge.
* `images[].left` **[Number][7]?** the pixel offset from the left edge.
* `images[].tile` **[Boolean][9]** set to true to repeat the overlay image across the entire image with the given `gravity`. (optional, default `false`)
* `images[].premultiplied` **[Boolean][9]** set to true to avoid premultipling the image below. Equivalent to the `--premultiplied` vips option. (optional, default `false`)
* `images[].density` **[Number][7]** number representing the DPI for vector overlay image. (optional, default `72`)
* `images[].raw` **[Object][4]?** describes overlay when using raw pixel data.
* `images[].raw.width` **[Number][7]?**
* `images[].raw.height` **[Number][7]?**
* `images[].raw.channels` **[Number][7]?**
* `images[].failOnError` **[boolean][9]** @see [constructor parameters][10] (optional, default `true`)
* `images[].limitInputPixels` **([number][7] | [boolean][9])** @see [constructor parameters][10] (optional, default `268402689`)
### Examples
```javascript
await sharp(background)
.composite([
{ input: layer1, gravity: 'northwest' },
{ input: layer2, gravity: 'southeast' },
])
.toFile('combined.png');
```
```javascript
const output = await sharp('input.gif', { animated: true })
.composite([
{ input: 'overlay.png', tile: true, blend: 'saturate' }
])
.toBuffer();
```
```javascript
sharp('input.png')
.rotate(180)
.resize(300)
.flatten( { background: '#ff6600' } )
.composite([{ input: 'overlay.png', 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!
});
```
