Jimp ... in a browser

Browser support for Jimp was added by Phil Seaton. This enabled Jimp to be used in Electron applications as well as web browsers.

Example usage:

<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>

See the main documentation for the full API documenatinon.

WebWorkers

For better performance, it recommended that Jimp methods are run on a separate thread using WebWorkers. The following shows how using two files (index.html and jimp-worker.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

// 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
             });
    });
});
