Generate

The generate method creates images from structured parameters using registered generators.

Basic Usage

const image = await floimg.generate({
  generator: 'quickchart',
  params: {
    type: 'bar',
    data: { /* Chart.js config */ }
  }
});

Parameters

Parameter	Type	Required	Description
generator	string	Yes	Name of the registered generator
params	object	Yes	Generator-specific parameters

Return Value

Returns a Blob representing the generated image.

Registering Generators

Before using a generator, you must register it:

import createClient from '@teamflojo/floimg';
import quickchart from '@teamflojo/floimg-quickchart';
import qr from '@teamflojo/floimg-qr';

const floimg = createClient();
floimg.registerGenerator(quickchart());
floimg.registerGenerator(qr());

Error Handling

try {
  const image = await floimg.generate({
    generator: 'quickchart',
    params: { type: 'bar', data: {} }
  });
} catch (error) {
  console.error('Generation failed:', error.message);
}

Common errors:

• Generator not found - Generator not registered
• Invalid params - Parameters don’t match generator schema
• Generation failed - Generator-specific error
