crushify-node v1.0.1

crushify-node Documentation

Overview

The crushify-node is a robust Node.js class that provides high-performance image processing capabilities using the Sharp library. It extends EventEmitter to provide event-driven processing updates and includes comprehensive error handling, caching, and statistics tracking.

Features

• Support for multiple image formats (PNG, WebP, JPEG, AVIF)
• Batch processing capabilities
• Progress tracking and statistics
• File validation and error handling
• Event-driven architecture
• Processing cache for optimization
• Configurable processing options
• Automatic output directory creation
• EXIF metadata preservation

Installation

import crushify from 'crushify-node';

Core Concepts

Format Support

The processor supports conversion between the following formats:

• PNG

  • Input formats: JPG, JPEG, GIF, WebP, TIFF, AVIF
  • Default quality: 100

• WebP

  • Input formats: JPG, JPEG, PNG, GIF, HEIF, TIFF, AVIF
  • Default quality: 80
  • Additional options: lossless, effort level, alpha quality

• JPEG

  • Input formats: PNG, GIF, HEIF, WebP, TIFF, AVIF
  • Default quality: 85
  • Additional options: progressive loading, chroma subsampling, mozjpeg optimization

• AVIF

  • Input formats: JPG, JPEG, PNG, GIF, WebP, TIFF
  • Default quality: 65
  • Additional options: effort level, chroma subsampling

API Reference

Constructor

const processor = new crushify();

Single File Processing

Process File

async processFile({
  input: string,
  output?: string,
  format: 'png' | 'webp' | 'jpeg' | 'avif',
  processingOptions?: ProcessingOptions
}): Promise<ProcessingResult>

Convenience Methods

async convertToPNG(input, output?, options?)
async convertToWebP(input, output?, options?)
async convertToJPEG(input, output?, options?)
async convertToAVIF(input, output?, options?)

Batch Processing

Process Folder

async processFolder({
  folder: string,
  dest: string,
  format: 'png' | 'webp' | 'jpeg' | 'avif',
  processingOptions?: ProcessingOptions
}, progressCallback?: Function): Promise<ProcessingResult[]>

Convenience Methods

async convertFolderToPNG(folder, dest, options?)
async convertFolderToWebP(folder, dest, options?)
async convertFolderToJPEG(folder, dest, options?)
async convertFolderToAVIF(folder, dest, options?)

Utility Methods

Get Statistics

getStats(): {
  processed: number,
  failed: number,
  skipped: number,
  totalSaved: number,
  processingTime: number | null,
  averageSaving: string | null
}

Cache Management

clearCache(): void
resetStats(): void

Events

The processor emits the following events:

• processing:start: Emitted when processing begins
• processing:complete: Emitted when processing finishes
• error: Emitted when an error occurs

Usage Examples

Basic Single File Conversion

const processor = new crushify();

try {
  const result = await processor.convertToWebP('input.jpg', 'output.webp', {
    quality: 85,
    lossless: false
  });
  console.log(result.message);
} catch (error) {
  console.error('Conversion failed:', error.message);
}

Batch Processing with Progress

const processor = new crushify();

try {
  const results = await processor.convertFolderToAVIF(
    './input',
    './output',
    {
      quality: 70,
      effort: 6
    },
    ({ file, progress, result }) => {
      console.log(`Processing ${file}: ${progress.toFixed(1)}%`);
    }
  );
  
  console.log(`Processed ${results.length} files`);
} catch (error) {
  console.error('Batch processing failed:', error.message);
}

Custom Format Processing

const processor = new crushify();

try {
  const result = await processor.processFile({
    input: 'input.png',
    output: 'output.webp',
    format: 'webp',
    processingOptions: {
      quality: 90,
      effort: 6,
      lossless: true,
      progressive: true
    }
  });
  
  console.log(result.stats);
} catch (error) {
  console.error('Processing failed:', error.message);
}

Error Handling

The processor includes comprehensive error handling:

1. File Validation: Checks file existence and permissions
2. Format Validation: Verifies format compatibility
3. Processing Errors: Captures and enhances Sharp processing errors
4. Event Emission: Emits error events for monitoring

Errors include:

• Invalid file paths
• Unsupported format conversions
• Processing failures
• File system errors

Performance Considerations

1. Caching

   • Processed results are cached using input path and options as key
   • Identical processing requests use cached results
   • Cache can be cleared manually using clearCache()

2. Statistics

   • Processing statistics are maintained automatically
   • Available via getStats() method
   • Include counts, timing, and storage savings
   • Can be reset using resetStats()

3. Memory Usage

   • Streams are used for file processing
   • Cache should be cleared for long-running processes
   • Consider batch size in folder processing

Best Practices

1. Error Handling

   try {
     await processor.processFile(options);
   } catch (error) {
     if (error.originalError) {
       // Handle Sharp-specific errors
     }
     // Handle general errors
   }

2. Resource Management

   // Clear cache periodically for long-running processes
   setInterval(() => processor.clearCache(), 3600000);

3. Progress Monitoring

   processor.on('processing:start', () => console.log('Started'));
   processor.on('processing:complete', () => console.log('Completed'));
   processor.on('error', (error) => console.error(error));
