PSD.js

A general purpose PSD parser written in Coffeescript. Based off of PSD.rb.

Runs in both NodeJS and the browser (using browserify). There are still some pieces missing that are present in PSD.rb, such as layer comp filtering, layer image exporting, a built-in renderer, and many layer info blocks. The eventual goal is full feature parity with PSD.rb.

Installation

PSD.js has no native dependencies. Simply add psd to your package.json or run npm install psd.

Basic Usage

PSD.js works almost exactly the same in the browser and NodeJS.

NodeJS

var PSD = require('psd');
var psd = PSD.fromFile("path/to/file.psd");
psd.parse();

console.log(psd.tree().export());
console.log(psd.tree().childrenAtPath('A/B/C')[0].export());

// You can also use promises syntax for opening and parsing
PSD.open("path/to/file.psd").then(function (psd) {
  return psd.image.saveAsPng('./output.png');
}).then(function () {
  console.log("Finished!");
});

Browser

var PSD = require('psd');

// Load from URL
PSD.fromURL("/path/to/file.psd").then(function(psd) {
  document.getElementById('ImageContainer').appendChild(psd.image.toPng());
});

// Load from event, e.g. drag & drop
function onDrop(evt) {
  PSD.fromEvent(evt).then(function (psd) {
    console.log(psd.tree().export());
  }); 
}
