Introduction to Async outputFile()This method is similar to write file of 'fs'. The only difference is it will create the parent directories, if not present. The argument passed should always be a file path, not a buffer or a file descriptor.SyntaxoutputFile(file, data[, options] [, callback])Parametersfile – String parameter which will contain name and location of the file.data – The data can hold a string data, buffer stream or a Unit8 string array that is to be stored.options – The 'outputFile' function supports the following options −encoding – Default 'utf8'.mode – Default 0o666signal – allown aborting an ongoing output file functioncallback ...

ReactJS and NodeJS both are a widely used subsets of JavaScript nowadays with high performance. But both are different in someways. In the below article, we will discuss the difference between the two and which is better to use to build a web application and why ?NodeJSIt is a completely open-source and cross-platform runtime environment used for executing JavaScript code outside of a browser.The event driven model of NodeJs lets the user to create a fast and scalable network applications. First thing to remember about NodeJS is that its neither a framework and nor a programming language. NodeJS is a ... Read More

An exception is a type of an event that occurs while executing or running a program that stops the normal flow of the program and returns to the system. When an exception occurs the method creates an object and gives it to the runtime system. This creating an exception and giving it to the runtime system is known as throwing an Exception.We need to handle these Exceptions to handle any use case and prevent the system from crashing or performing an unprecedented set of instructions. If we donot handle or throw exceptions, the program may perform strangely.Exception handling in Synchronous ... Read More

Like Image, we can also overlay text on an image using JIMP. This can be used to display brands or copyright information on images. The print() method is used to write text on images. Though Jimp can only support the Bitmap font format (.fnt), but other fonts can be converted into this format to be compatible and used with JIMP.Syntaximage.print(font, x, y, message);Definition of print() paramtersfont – This describes the font passed by the user for writing the text on image.x, y – The coordinates where the file will be placed.message – This is the user defined message which is passed in ...

NodeJS – Rotate() is an inbuilt function that is used to rotate the images. The image is rotated clockwise where the dimensions of the image remains same and no changes are made on them.Syntaxrotate ( r, mode, cb )Definition of rotate() paramtersr – Used to store the rotation angle at which the image will be rotated.mode – Used to store the scaling method of the image. This is an optional parameter.cb – This is an optional parameter that can be invoked after the compilation is complete.Input ImageUsing Node JIMP – ROTATE()Before proceeding to use rotate() functions, please check that the ...

NodeJS – Resize() is an inbuilt function that is used to resize the images to the desired size. We can use resize to set the height and width using a 2-pass bilinear algorithm. It can resize an image into any size as declared by the user. We can take input from the user or resize it into fixed Width*Height size.Syntaxresize(w, h, mode, cb)Definition of resize() paramtersw – This parameter is used to declare the width of the image. This is a required parameter.h – This parameter is used to declare the height of the resized image. This parameter is also required.mode – This ... Read More
