Module usage

const { pack } = require('./dist/cli/lib/index');
 
pack({
  type: 'astc',

Flags

Required

-i, --input [example: ./input/example.png] [required]
-o, --output [example: ./output/example.ktx] [required]
-t, --type [example: astc, etc, pvrtc, s3tc] [required]
-c, --compression [example: ASTC_4x4, ETC2_RGB, PVRTC1_2, DXT1] [required]
-q, --quality [example: astcmedium, etcfast, pvrtcnormal, normal] [required]

Optional

-vb, --verbose [true / false, default: false] [not required]

-rs, --square ['no', '-', '+', default: +] [not required]
-rp, --pot ['no', '-', '+', default: +] [not required]
-m, --mipmap [true / false, default: false] [not required]
-y, --flipY [tue / false, default: false] [not required]

Tool flags

Tool flags are not processed by texture-compressor but rather directly by the binary you are targeting itself.

For example adding --flags ["usesourceformat DXT1A" "alphaThreshold 200"] will pass usesourceformat DXT1A and alphaThreshold 200 directly to Crunch.

Please be aware that these flags are tool specific and can therefore not be directly applied to the other binaries.

-f, --flags ["flag value" "flag value"] [not required]

To find tool specific flags please refer to the manuals of ASTC, ETC, PVRTC, S3TC.
