Package Exports

gif-encoder

This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (gif-encoder) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

Streaming GIF encoder

This is built as part of the gifsockets project.

Getting Started

Install the module with: npm install gif-encoder

// Create a 10 x 10 gif
var GifEncoder = require('gif-encoder');
var gif = new GifEncoder(10, 10);

// using an rgba array of pixels [r, g, b, a, ... continues on for every pixel]
// This can be collected from a <canvas> via context.getImageData(0, 0, width, height).data
var pixels = [0, 0, 0, 255, /*...*/];

// Write out the image into memory
gif.writeHader();
gif.addFrame(pixels);
// Write subsequent rgba arrays for more frames
gif.finish();

// 4096 arrays of bytes is available at
gif.out.pages
