Format is a JavaScript module that allows you to easily convert image files to WebP format (for the moment ). This module is lightweight and can be used with any JavaScript framework.

Installation

You can install the module via npm:

Usage

Here's how you can use the toWebP function to convert an image file to WebP format:

Importing the module

If you are using a module bundler like Webpack or Rollup, you can import the function:

import { toWebP } from "format-converter";

Converting an image to WebP

To convert an image file to WebP format, use the toWebP function:

const webpData = await toWebP(imageFile);

Example

Here is a complete example of how to use the toWebP function:

import { toWebP } from "format-converter";

const imageFile = document.querySelector('input[type="file"]').files[0];

toWebP(imageFile)
	.then((webpBlob) => {
		// Do something with the WebP blob, e.g., create a URL for it
		const webpURL = URL.createObjectURL(webpBlob);
		const imgElement = document.createElement("img");
		imgElement.src = webpURL;
		document.body.appendChild(imgElement);
	})
	.catch((error) => {
		console.error("Error converting image to WebP:", error);
	});

Here is a complete example using the toWebP function and downloading the converted image:

import { toWebP } from "format-converter";

const handleConvert = async (file) => {
	if (!file) return;
	const res = await toWebP(file);

	const downloadUrl = window.URL.createObjectURL(res);

	a.href = url;
	a.download = "test.webp";
	a.click();
};
