gpu-tex-enc

API and CLI for compressing images using the ASTC, ETC, ETC2, BCn (DXTn) texture compression standard.

Description

gpu-tex-enc is a comprehensive Node.js module that provides both an API and a command-line interface (CLI) for compressing images using various texture compression standards including ASTC, ETC, ETC2, and BCn (DXTn). It's designed to cater to the needs of graphics programming, game development, and any applications requiring efficient texture storage and bandwidth optimization.

Features

• Supports multiple compression standards: ASTC, ETC, ETC2, BCn (DXTn).
• Easy-to-use API and CLI for versatile image compression tasks.
• Integrates with @gpu-tex-enc/astc, @gpu-tex-enc/bc, and @gpu-tex-enc/etc modules.

Installation

To install the package, run:

npm install gpu-tex-enc

Usage

As a Node.js Module

Require the module in your project:

const gpuTexEnc = require('gpu-tex-enc');

// Example usage of the API

As a CLI Tool

After installation, gputexenc can be used directly from the command line:

gputexenc [options]
