Normal Usage

zipDataInPng()

Hide a hello.zip into deno.png, and output the file named final.png

import path from "path";
import { zipDataInPng } from 'zip-data-in-png';

zipDataInPng (
    path.join(__dirname, "deno.png"),  // Original data
    path.join(__dirname, "hello.zip"), // .zip file to hide
    path.join(__dirname, "final.png") // Output file
)

pngAddHiddenContent()

Hide a hi.zip into cat.png, and return a Uint8Array png Buffer for save in hidden.png.

import fs from "fs";
import { pngAddHiddenContent } from 'zip-data-in-png';

const png_in = fs.readFileSync("cat.png", {flag:'r'});
const content_in = fs.readFileSync("hi.zip", {flag:'r'});

const result: Uint8Array = pngAddHiddenContent (
    png_in,         // Original data
    content_in,     // .zip file to hide
    { quiet: true } // Output file
)

fs.writeFileSync("hidden.png", result);

Sample

Hide a data.zip into deno.png, and output the file named result.png

import path from "path";
import { zipDataInPng } from 'zip-data-in-png';

zipDataInPng (
    path.join(__dirname, "deno.png"),   // Original data
    path.join(__dirname, "data.zip"),   // .zip file to hide
    path.join(__dirname, "result.png") // Output file
)

Notices:

1. The input file MUST be a .png file.
2. Hidden file MUST be a .zip file.
3. If you see ERROR: Input files too big for cover image resolution., means the input .png resolution is too high.

Params

export function zipDataInPng(
    originalPngPath: string,
    inputContentPath: string,
    outputPath: string,
    option?: zipDataInPngOptions
) : boolean

export function pngAddHiddenContent(
    png_in: Buffer, // Png file
    content_in: Buffer, // Zip file
    option?: zipDataInPngOptions
): Uint8Array

interface zipDataInPngOptions {
    quiet: boolean // Default: false, if true then will console.log all info
}

Advance usage

import path from "path";
import { zipDataInPng } from 'zip-data-in-png';

zipDataInPng (
    path.join(__dirname, "deno.png"),   
    path.join(__dirname, "data.zip"),   
    path.join(__dirname, "result.png"), 
    { quiet: false }
)
