PicMerge
A simple tool that merges two images and return a url where the final image has been uploaded to.
Usage
Using PicMerge is pretty simple.
Fair warning PicMerge is written entirely in ES6. So please make sure you're transpiling your Javascript code somewhere in your build process.
1. Install PicMerge
Run npm install picmerge --save
, or if you're cool, use yarn. yarn add picmerge
2. Import picMerge into your nodeJS app
const picMerge = ;
If the name doesn't suit your context, you may do something like...
const kudiReferralImg = ;
3. Use PicMerge
This is the fun part.
If no exceptions are thrown, the url
variable would hold a string representation of the URL for the merged picture.
4. Playing Safe
Because shit happens, you may want to do this:
This would save you from events in which an error occurs while picMerge does it's magic.
Later, you may be able to pass in a default url to the picMerge function. So, in the event that an error occurs, picMerge would return the url for some default Image you have specified.
Something like:
const mergedPicsURL =
5. Example
Here are two urls.
const bgImg = 'http://i.imgur.com/7mb8Bcl.png'; const profilePic = 'http://i.imgur.com/sMayycp.png';
Below is the Background Image:
And the Profile Picture:
Update your code:
const bgImg = 'http://i.imgur.com/7mb8Bcl.png'; const profilePic = 'http://i.imgur.com/sMayycp.png'; const picMerge = ;
when the picMerge promise is fufilled, res
is http://res.cloudinary.com/blushcow/image/upload/v1490510074/vyh2qan9awf6whoidasp.jpg
6. What else?
