Requirements

Installation

Download dummyimages and save it as a dependency.

$ yarn add dummyimages

Use it as middleware in your Express app.

var express = require('express');
var app     = express();

var dummyimages = require('dummyimages');

app.use(dummyimages());

app.listen(8080);
console.log('Listening on ' + 8080);

Settings

You can enable the middleware passing in optional parameters. The defaults are listed below.

app.use(dummyimages({
  colorBg:     '999',      // Default image background color
  colorFg:     'fff',      // Default image text color
  maxFontSize: 120,        // Max font size
  maxHeight:   1600,       // Max image height
  maxWidth:    1600,       // Max image width
  route:       'imgipsum', // Route endpoint to  respond to
  textPadding: 0.1         // Text padding (left/right) in percentage
}));
