urify


A simple module to synchronously return a DataURI for the given file path.

This also includes a browserify transform to statically analyze the expression, inlining the URI during the bundle step. This allows you to do the following in the browser:

``js
var path = require('path');
var urify = require('urify');
var uri = urify(path.join(__dirname, 'icon.png'));

var img = new Image()
img.onload = function() {
console.log("Image loaded!")
}
img.src = uri
`

While bundling, include the urify/transform like so:

`browserify -t urify/transform foo.js > bundle.js`

After bundling, the code will look like this:

`js
var uri = "data:image/png;base64,....."

var img = new Image()
img.onload = function() {
console.log("Image loaded!")
}
img.src = uri
`

API Usage

![NPM](https://nodei.co/npm/urify/)

$3


#### uri = urify(file)

Synchronously grabs a file's DataURI string, with the following format:

`js
"data:image/png;base64,....."
`

$3


#### stream = transform(file, [opts])

Returns a through stream inlining require('urify') calls to their statically evaluated DataURI strings.

Optionally, you can set which opt.vars will be used in the static-eval in addition to __dirname and ___filename.

Upgrade from 1.x to 2.x

There was a signficant breaking change between 1.x and 2.x. Note the following:

$3

datauri has been replaced with urify.

#### 1.x

`javascript
var datauri = require('datauri');
var data = datauri('path/to/file');
`

#### 2.x

`javascript
var urify = require('urify');
var data = urify('path/to/file');
`

$3

Use urify/transform instead of urify:

#### 1.x

`json
"browserify": {
"transform": [
"urify"
]
}
`

#### 2.x

`json
//2.x
"browserify": {
"transform": [
"urify/transform"
]
}
``
