# Jimp ... in a browser #
|
||
|
|
||
|
Browser support for Jimp was added by Phil Seaton. This enabled Jimp to be used in [Electron](http://electron.atom.io/) applications as well as web browsers.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Example usage:
|
||
|
|
||
|
```html
|
||
|
<script src="jimp.min.js"></script>
|
||
|
<script>
|
||
|
Jimp.read("lenna.png").then(function (lenna) {
|
||
|
lenna.resize(256, 256) // resize
|
||
|
.quality(60) // set JPEG quality
|
||
|
.greyscale() // set greyscale
|
||
|
.getBase64(Jimp.MIME_JPEG, function (err, src) {
|
||
|
var img = document.createElement("img");
|
||
|
img.setAttribute("src", src);
|
||
|
document.body.appendChild(img);
|
||
|
});
|
||
|
}).catch(function (err) {
|
||
|
console.error(err);
|
||
|
});
|
||
|
</script>
|
||
|
```
|

## WebWorkers ##
|
||
|
|
||
|
For better performance, it recommended that Jimp methods are run on a separate thread using [`WebWorkers`](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Web_Workers_API/Using_web_workers). The following shows how using two files (`index.html` and `jimp-worker.js`):
|
||
|
|
||
|
```js
|
||
|
// index.html
|
||
|
|
||
|
var worker = new Worker("jimp-worker.js");
|
||
|
worker.onmessage = function (e) {
|
||
|
// append a new img element using the base 64 image
|
||
|
var img = document.createElement("img");
|
||
|
img.setAttribute("src", e.data);
|
||
|
document.body.appendChild(img);
|
||
|
};
|
||
|
worker.postMessage("lenna.png"); // message the worker thread
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
```js
|
||
|
// jimp-worker.js
|
||
|
|
||
|
importScripts("jimp.min.js");
|
||
|
|
||
|
self.addEventListener("message", function(e) {
|
||
|
Jimp.read(e.data).then(function (lenna) {
|
||
|
lenna.resize(256, 256) // resize
|
||
|
.quality(60) // set JPEG quality
|
||
|
.greyscale() // set greyscale
|
||
|
.getBase64(Jimp.MIME_JPEG, function (err, src) {
|
||
|
self.postMessage(src); // message the main thread
|
||
|
});
|
||
|
});
|
||
|
});
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
## CDN ##
|
||
|
|
||
|
CDN access to the minified library is available through the [RawGit CDN](https://rawgit.com/):
|
||
|
|
||
|
```html
|
||
|
<script src="https://cdn.rawgit.com/oliver-moran/jimp/v0.2.28/browser/lib/jimp.min.js"></script>
|
||
