Ness-Canvas is a small canvas Builder for Canvas.

Inslallation

$ npm install ness-canvas

If you are not used to canvas, the latter can request a specific installation that you will find here

Quick Example

const { NessBuilder } = require('ness-canvas')
const { loadImage } = require('canvas')

const background = await loadImage('https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/1006600590408818810/1006600665298116728/background-3147808.jpg');
const avatar = await loadImage('https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/758031322244710601/1000153437813616650/perso_anime_U565bW7EhY2InkF.png');
const builder = new NessBuilder(700, 250);

const gradient = builder.context.createLinearGradient(25, 25, 185 , 185  );
const gradient2 = builder.context.createLinearGradient(25, 200, 660 , 130);

gradient.addColorStop(0, 'red');
...
gradient2.addColorStop(0, 'red');
...

builder.setCornerRadius(15)
  .setBackground(background)
  .setAxis("BottomRight")
  .setFrame("Square", { x: 25, y: 25, size: 80 }, { type: "Image", content: avatar, color: gradient, lineWidth: 5 })
  .setFrame("Hexagon", { x: 520, y: 25, size: 80, rotate: 90 }, { type: "Text", content: "33", color: "Black", textOptions: { size: 50 } })
  .setExp({ x: 40, y: 200, width: 620, height: 30, radius: 15 }, 50, { outlineColor1: gradient2, outlineColor2: "HotPink", color2: "Plum" })
  .setText('Hello World!', {x:250, y:100}, {size: 40, font: '*Impact'})
  .generatedTo('.', "test", "png");

// Generate canvas in a specific file
builder.generateTo('FileLocation', 'ImageName', "PNG | JPEG | JPG")

// Recover the canvas buffer
Builder.getBuffer()

// Add a filter to an image

const filter = new FilterBuilder(avatar);
await filter.Invert();
  
new NessBuilder(avatar.width, avatar.height)
  .setCornerRadius(15)
  .setBackground(filter.getCanvas())
  .generatedTo("src/test/", "testFilter", "png");

Documentation

This project is an implementation of the Canvas module. For more on the latter visit the Canvas Module Guide. All utility methods are documented below.

The filter builder has documentation specifying all filters you find here.
