Package Exports

sharp
sharp/package.json

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

Readme

sharp

The typical use case for this high speed Node.js module is to convert large images of many formats to smaller, web-friendly JPEG, PNG and WebP images of varying dimensions.

Resizing an image is typically 4x faster than using the quickest ImageMagick and GraphicsMagick settings.

Colour spaces, embedded ICC profiles and alpha transparency channels are all handled correctly. Bicubic interpolation with Lanczos anti-alias filtering ensures quality is not sacrificed for speed.

As well as image resizing, operations such as rotation, extraction, compositing and gamma correction are available.

64-bit Windows and recent Linux systems do not require the installation of any external runtime dependencies.

Use with OS X is as simple as running brew install homebrew/science/vips to install the libvips dependency.
