@jamsinclair Is there anything specific that needs to be done to run this in a worker?

jamsinclair commented 12 months ago

@marklundin, nope so long as you can import them and bundle the worker yourself it should be fine!

The only known issue is #37.

I've added an example at https://github.com/jamsinclair/jSquash/blob/main/examples/web-workers to show case how you can run the code from a Web Worker.

At this time I don't want to abstract the WebWorker part and leave that to the user. For several reasons:

Different bundlers have different opinions on how Workers get handled and bundled
It may be better to do several tasks in a worker rather than just run one operation
