Generate a 1×1 pixel transparent PNG in Node

November 26, 2019 Leave a comment Go to comments

If you ever need to generate a Uint8Array to represent a 1×1 pixel transparent PNG in Node, here’s the script

var base64 = “iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAAEAAAABCAQAAAC1HAwCAAAAC0lEQVR42mNkYAAAAAYAAjCB0C8AAAAASUVORK5CYII=”;
var atob = require(‘atob’);
var raw = atob(base64);
var rawLength = raw.length;
u8 = new Uint8Array(new ArrayBuffer(rawLength));
for(i = 0; i < rawLength; i++) {
u8[i] = raw.charCodeAt(i);
}
