pngquant-bin

pngquant is a PNG compressor that significantly reduces file sizes by converting images to a more efficient 8-bit PNG format

You probably want imagemin-pngquant instead.

Install

$ npm install @mole-inc/pngquant-bin

Usage

import {execFile} from 'child_process';
import {pngquantBin} from '@mole-inc/pngquant-bin';

execFile(pngquantBin.path, ['-o', 'output.png', 'input.png'], err => {
	console.log('Image minified!');
});

CLI

$ npm install --global @mole-inc/pngquant-bin

$ pngquant --help

Updating pre-compiled binaries

The Linux binaries are statically linked so they should work on all Linux distributions. To recompile them:

1. sudo apt-get install libpng-dev
2. ./configure CFLAGS=-static && make && cp pngquant pngquant-64
3. Repeat the above commands, but in a 32-bin docker container started with: docker run -ti -v pwd:/source i386/debian:9.3 bash
