i got a node error when i use this modules

how this should work
should I add node modules on webpack or?

Well, I'm not expected this module can be used in browsers. So basically it only be available for Node.js environment at the moment (I'm working on new version which supports it). However, it's essentially relying on jimp module for image processing, I guess the issue you filed might related to upstream.

I don't have enough information to figure out what went wrong in your code. Can I see some code snippets?

What I have done is that I just import this module， I guess the problem is that fail to use Webpack somehow, but I do not know how to configure this Webpack make it use the buffer, my Webpack is like 3.0+

I got the issue from the upstream: jimp-dev/jimp#280

[preco21]

Basically, when you build a library that targets to browser environments with webpack, the webpack will automatically inject Buffer polyfill to the bundle to make it work in other platform other than node.

But it seems to be they are using browserify instead of webpack. Although, I suppose it should handle Buffer injection anyway.

So in the meantime, I'm going to revert previous version of jimp so that merge-img will still work until this issue addressed.

Oops, closed by mistake. Reopening.

Thanks, I will just try it now once you use the previous jimp
