Hey @contra and @sandfox - The only hold-out stopping this from being 100% set for Node is the build_pyramid function in jsfeat_bbf.js which uses canvas heavily.

I'm a CV noob, so I didn't feel safe attempting to reimplement this (I'm sure there's a lot of nuance to combining multiple pixels into one). And I really didn't want to rely on node-canvas because it has a bunch of native dependencies/is a pain to setup, and this lib is currently so easy to use.

Just mentioning it in case either of you wants to give a JS implementation a crack (for Node only, since I'd bet the current canvas impl would be faster in the browser).

With NPM installing node-canvas is seamless in most cases. I think having it available on NPM with a few deps vs. not available at all is better

Eh, there are quite a few seams to node-canvas. Anyway, jsfeat is already on NPM, just the build_pyramid function won't work.

Agree node-canvas is better than nothing. I just want something better for devspeed. Would be great if node-canvas were an optional dependency with a JS fallback. Maybe that's step two though.

Cheers.

i removed canvas dependency in bbf module. u can easily use it without any additions now.

Well! That's pretty slick. Thanks a ton!

I just published it to NPM. Any reason you don't seem too keen to own the NPM module? Then you can publish yourself.
