How do you include this on a web page? about apng-js HOT 11 OPEN

You should do this (I'll use async/await syntax for brevity):

const apng = parseAPNG(buffer); // buffer is an ArrayBuffer with the image data
await apng.createImages(); // making images for all frames
const player = await apng.getPlayer(ctx); // ctx is a canvas 2D context
player.play() // play apng on canvas
...
player.pause() // pause playback

from apng-js.

Thanks for your help. I submitted PR #3 to maybe help others get started, the whole babel/webpack workflow was not something I was very familiar with when I found your library, although I am glad to know it now!

@davidmz Is it possible to read data from IMG tag rather than accessing the data through a file INPUT tag, using filereader(). I have several APNG that load on a webpage, I want loop over these images and access data like duration etc

from apng-js.

@charlesr1971 yes, it possible but not from IMG itself. You should load the image binary data from the src URL (via fetch API or XHR) and parse it using this library.

Also, you can use a bit more hi-level library, https://github.com/davidmz/apng-canvas that have the APNG.animateImage method for it. Note that there are some limitations.

from apng-js.

David. Thanks for your help. I will have a look at the other library apng-canvas, but I wanted to try and avoid XHR

How about this method? After an image has loaded, I recreate it as a Canvas, using:

ctx.drawImage()

And then use:

ctx.getImageData()

Like:

https://jsfiddle.net/donmccurdy/jugzk15b/

Then I can use:

new FileReader()

To access the array buffer and pass it into:

parseAPNG()

from apng-js.

Of course, with my previous method, I wouldn’t need to build the image out. I would just add the APNG duration data, underneath the source image, once it is available.

from apng-js.

No, it wouldn't work. The only way to obtain APNG data is fetch/XHR.

from apng-js.

@davidmz David. Thanks for your advice.

What part of the method outlined in:

https://jsfiddle.net/donmccurdy/jugzk15b/

Would fail?

Thanks

from apng-js.

Sorry, but I cannot provide detailed consultation via Github issues. The getImageData isn't returning raw PNG data, it event isn't have PNG format at all (https://developer.mozilla.org/ru/docs/Web/API/ImageData). It is just an uncompressed 'screenshot' without any animation info.

from apng-js.

@davidmz Thanks for your help...

from apng-js.

And finally, I managed to resolve this problem by using apng-canvas:

jQuery(document).ready(function(){
			
		  var animatedStickerImages = document.querySelectorAll('.animated-sticker-image');
		  var counter = 1;
		  [].forEach.call(animatedStickerImages, function(img) {
			const duration = document.querySelector('##animated-sticker-image-duration-' + counter);
			APNG.parseURL(img.src).then(function(data) {
			  if('playTime' in data){
				var playTime = parseInt(data['playTime']/1000).toFixed(2) + "s";
				duration.appendChild(document.createTextNode(playTime));
			  }
			});
			counter++;
 });

Simple when you know how...

Anyway, great libraries! Thanks...
