Giving a font, would be great to be able to add text onto an image.

Throwing some support here. Would love to not have to rely on imagemagick/graphicsmagick

+1 couldn't find any non-process-spawning library for writing text to images

Found that the https://www.npmjs.com/package/opencv has a method to put text.

thellimist commented 9 years ago

best part of LWIP is it doesn't have external dependencies where npm/opencv has lots of. GM / Imagemagick also has this properties with lots of dependencies.

I think what'd be most useful is an API to create a new image with a transparent background and user-specified color, font, and text. That can then be added to other images or manipulated as-needed.

+1 I was using canvas, but it relies on cairo, which is a hell to maintain on docker or similar.
