node-mac-app-icon

Get App icons by pid on macOS in NodeJS. Returns a Buffer representation of the App's icon data.

The node source uses a Swift binary to fetch the icons so it's pretty fast.

Returning a Buffer is inspired by sindresorhus/file-icon.

Install

$ npm install node-mac-app-icon --save

Usage

const { getAppIconByPid, getAppIconListByPid } = require('node-mac-app-icon');

  console.log(res); // res is a Buffer
});
 
getAppIconListByPid([814, 20134, 503], { size: 512 }).then(res => {
  console.log(res); // array of { pid: ..., icon: ... }
});
