Package Exports

node-easel

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 (node-easel) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

Simple Example

node-easel is completely polymorphic with EaselJS. A good starting point is to checkout the EaselJS documentation.

//Import easel
require('node-easel');
var Stage = createjs.Stage;
var Shape = createjs.Shape;
var Graphics = createjs.Graphics;

var fs = require('fs');

//Create the canvas to draw to
var c = new Canvas(980, 580);
var ctx = c.getContext('2d');

//Create graphics object
var g = new createjs.Graphics();
var shape = new createjs.Shape(g);

//Draw a circle
g.setStrokeStyle(8)
.beginStroke("#F0F")
.beginRadialGradientFill(["#FF0","#00F"],[0,1],100,200,0,100,200,40)
.drawCircle(100,200,40);

//Add the item to our stage, and call .tick(); to draw the object.
var stage = new createjs.Stage(c);
stage.addChild(shape);
stage.tick();

//Create a PNG file.
fs.writeFile(__dirname + '/public/circle.png', c.toBuffer(), function() {
    createjs.Ticker.halt();
});
