/api/get-pages: returns the total number of pages given the data sent in the request.
/api/converter: returns a JSON object with the following structure:

{
    "files": [
        {
            "type": "png or jpeg or pdf",
            "data": {
                "image buffer data",
            },
        },
    ],
}

To save the data as an image, you can create an image from the buffer:

    const responseData = JSON.parse(response.data)
    for (let image of responseData.files) {
       return Buffer.from(image) 
    }

API that takes a string and converts it to an image of the text like in an ebook. Returns image as an array buffer.

Required Queries

fileType: "png" or "jpeg"
textType: "plainText" or "lz-string"
- If necessary, you can use lz encoding (ex. lz-string npm library) to encode text to make it shorter.
text: string or lz-encoded string

Optional Parameters

Note: numerical values must be numbers and not letters. For example, type "30", not "thirty".

width: number in pixels
height: number in pixels
padding: number in pixels
fontFamily: css font-family element
- Most standard system fonts should work. Others may not render correctly. I plan on adding support for more fonts in the future.
- Japanese text using the Hina Micho font is supported by default.
fontSize: number in pixels
backgroundColor: css color property
- ex. #0092d2 or tomato
textColor: css color property
pages: number
- specifies max number of pages. If pages is specified, the converter will convert as many pages it needs but will not return more than the number specified.
- the API will calculate the necessary number of images by default.
- This does not make the app squeeze the text to fit it in a certain number of pages. If 2 pages are specified, it will produce the first two pages and then not send any more.
