Installation

Install the @nexrender/core

$ npm install @nexrender/core --save

Usage

And then load it, and run it

const { init, render } = require('@nexrender/core')

const settings = init({
    logger: console,
})

const main = async () => {
    const result = await render(/*myJobJson*/, settings)
}

main().catch(console.error);
