A javascript spritesheet generator

Note

The module is not fully tested. So bugs or unexpected behaviour can happen (Sorry for the troubles waiting a clean version 2.0.0).

Purpose

• Generate multiple .png spritesheets from directories
• Generate a css preprocessor file containing abstract class and mixins for each sprite (only stylus for now, but you can create your own use a custom processor function).
• Generate spritesheet and preprocessor tools for retina and other resolutions.

Install

npm install @alexistessier/spritesheet-generator

How to use

var SpritesheetGenerator = require('@alexistessier/spritesheet-generator/factory');

var path = require('path');

var gen = SpritesheetGenerator({
	inputPath : path.join(__dirname, 'sources'),
	outputPath : path.join(__dirname, 'generated-spritesheets'),
	processor : 'stylus'
});

gen.run();

This basic usage example will take all the folders in the inputPath, and create one spritesheet for each, from all .png files in it. Note that inputPath can be a glob or an array of glob. The spritesheets (with the @2x version) and the preprocessor files are saved in outputPath

See examples to see the kind of files which are generated.
