angular
  .module('yourAwesomeApp')
  .factory('SomeFactory', function(Ahdin) {
    function compressFile(file) {
      Ahdin.compress({
        sourceFile: file,
        maxWidth: 1000,
        outputFormat: 'png'
      }).then(function(compressedBlob) {
      	doSomething(compressedBlob);
      });
    }
});

###compress() parameter object Parameter object that is passed to function compress() can have the following properties.

var parameterObj = {
  // jpeg or png file that is instance of File or Blob
  sourceFile: file, // required

  // Maximum width of compressed photo in pixels
  maxWidth: 1000, // optional, defaults to original image width

  // Maximum height of compressed photo in pixels
  maxHeight: 1000, // optional, defaults to original image height

  // String defining compressed file mime type. Accepted values: 'jpeg' and 'png'
  outputFormat: 'png' // optional, default value 'jpeg'

  // Image quality when desired outputFormat is 'jpeg' or undefined. Take values
  // over 0 and less or equal to 1. If outputFormat is 'png' this has no effect.
  quality: 0.9 // optional, defaults to 0.8
};

var compressionPromise = Ahdin.compress(parameterObj);
