Save remote images locally with ease

Save image is a dependency free + promise oriented + image saver utility that makes saving remote images locally trivial.

Default

Saves an image in the current directory using the remote image name. In this case will output ./avatar.jpeg

import saveImage from 'save-image';

const imageUrl = 'http://zzarcon.github.io/static/images/avatar.jpeg';
const image = await saveImage(imageUrl);

console.log(image.path);
console.log(image.content);

Specify location

import saveImage from 'save-image';

const imageUrl = 'http://zzarcon.github.io/static/images/avatar.jpeg';

saveImage(imageUrl, './public/download.jpeg');

Return type

interface Image {
  path: string;
  content: string;
}

path: Absolute location where the image was saved

content: Binary content of the image

Installation

$ yarn add save-image

TODO

• [ ] Allow to preserve image extension saveImage(imageUrl, './public/download') => ./public/download.jpeg
