First download and install GraphicsMagick

then either use npm: npm install gm

or clone the repo: git clone git:https://github.com/aheckmann/gm.git

Check out the examples directory to play around. Also take a look at the Extending gm page to see how to customize gm to your own needs.

There are a few ways you can use the gm image constructor.

• 1. gm(path) When you pass a string as the first argument it is interpreted as the path to an image you intend to manipulate.
• 2. gm(width, height) When you pass two arguments it tells gm to create a new image on the fly with the provided dimensions. And you can still chain just like you do with pre-existing images too. See here for an example.
• 3. gm(width, height, color) The same as #2 but you may also specify a background color for the created image.

• getters

  • size - returns the size (WxH) of the image
  • format - returns the image format (gif, jpeg, png, etc)
  • depth - returns the image color depth
  • color - returns the number of colors
  • res - returns the image resolution
  • filesize - returns image filesize
  • identify - returns all image data available
