gif-me-duration

Promise-based gif duration module.

Install

npm i gif-me-duration

Notes

Essentially, this module just uses a very small part of gify-parse allowing users to get the duration for a single gif url or an array of gif urls.

Updates:

• 1.0.6: simplified img to binary process
• 1.0.4: allows single or array of gif urls.
