How to use WebMWriter with Node.js? I get "Couldn't decode WebP frame, does the browser support WebP?"

[ProgrammingLife]

I try to use WebmWriter like this:

const { createCanvas, loadImage } = require("canvas");
const CANVAS_WIDTH = 1920;
const CANVAS_HEIGHT = 1080;
const canvas = createCanvas(CANVAS_WIDTH, CANVAS_HEIGHT);
const context = canvas.getContext("2d");

const videoWriter = new webmWriter({
    quality: 0.9999,
    fileWriter: null,
    fd: null,
    frameRate: 30, 
});
for (let i = 0; i < 30 * 5; i++) {
    videoWriter.addFrame(canvas);
}
videoWriter.complete();

But unfortunately I have no luck because evertime I get "Couldn't decode WebP frame, does the browser support WebP?". How to use it with Node.js?

It's only supported under Electron, not vanilla Node, since Electron provides the required support for canvas.toDataURL('image/webp') by way of its Chrome engine.

https://github.com/Automattic/node-canvas doesn't have webp support built-in, although it may be available from other sources.
