NPM targeted by malware campaign mimicking familiar library names
Socket uncovered npm malware campaign mimicking popular Node.js libraries and packages from other ecosystems; packages steal data and execute remote code.
@playcanvas/canvas-mock
Advanced tools
The canvas-mock
package recreates the HTMLCanvasElement
API and is intended to be used in a Node.js environment. This makes it possible to run WebGL-based libraries server-side or to execute unit tests for WebGL codebases within Node.
It has been tested with the PlayCanvas Engine but other libraries should be compatible too.
Ensure you have node installed. Then:
npm install @playcanvas/canvas-mock
canvas-mock
is currently only available as ES Modules. To use it, do:
import { HTMLCanvasElement } from '@playcanvas/canvas-mock';
const width = 500;
const height = 500;
const canvas = new HTMLCanvasElement(width, height);
const gl = canvas.getContext('webgl');
// Use WebGL API as normal
Currently, only webgl
or 2d
contexts can be requested (webgl2
is unavailable). The WebGL 1.0 implementation assumes a minimum supported spec (so no extensions are available and capabilities are restricted to the absolute minimum allowed by the WebGL 1.0 spec).
