Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

Readme

Base64-to-Tensor

This package enables the conversion of Base64-encoded images to tensor objects using pure JavaScript, compatible with TensorFlow.js.

Installation

Install the package using npm:

npm install base64-to-tensor --save

Prerequisites

Ensure @tensorflow/tfjs-core is installed alongside a valid TensorFlow backend. Choose between the synchronous package jpeg-js for full blocking sync or the asynchronous package sharp for non-blocking async operations:

# For synchronous operations:
npm install @tensorflow/tfjs-core jpeg-js

# For asynchronous operations:
npm install @tensorflow/tfjs-core sharp

Usage

Refer to the convert.test.ts file for example usage. Below are snippets demonstrating both synchronous and asynchronous conversions:

import { convert, convertAsync } from "base64-to-tensor";
import { setBackend } from "@tensorflow/tfjs-core";
import "@tensorflow/tfjs-backend-wasm";

await setBackend("wasm");

// Synchronous conversion (jpeg-js)
const tensorSync = convert(mybase64); // Ensure mybase64 is a valid JPEG

// Asynchronous conversion (sharp)
const tensorAsync = await convertAsync(mybase64); // Enhanced performance

// Example tensor output
{
  kept: false,
  isDisposedInternal: false,
  shape: [189, 300, 3],
  dtype: "int32",
  size: 170100,
  strides: [900, 3],
  dataId: { id: 1 },
  id: 1,
  rankType: "3",
}

Benefits

Using pure JavaScript for image conversion to tensors offers several advantages:

  1. Reduced Size and Portability: Eliminates the need for cairo or other native image development converters.
  2. Increased Speed: Performs calculations on-the-fly without external call overheads.
  3. Worker Thread Compatibility: Facilitates the use of TensorFlow WASM backends within API services, enhancing performance and scalability.
