Advanced tools
get-image-data is a browser/server utility that extracts RGBA data from images.
$ npm install get-image-data
var image = require('get-image-data')
image('./image.jpg', function(error, data) {
for (var i = 0, l = data.length, i < l; i += 4) {
var red = data[i]
var green = data[i + 1]
var blue = data[i + 2]
var alpha = data[i + 3]
}
})
The image data will contained within either a Uint8ClampedArray or a CanvasPixelArray depending on the environment. This shouldn’t be a problem, but it’s worth knowing.
