Feature Requests: interlineSpace, kerning

[reggi]

I created a bunch of issues today in https://github.com/lumeland/imagemagick-deno that should have been added here.

lumeland/imagemagick-deno#5
lumeland/imagemagick-deno#4
lumeland/imagemagick-deno#3
lumeland/imagemagick-deno#2

My main question is it possible to just add string flags the same as you'd pass to the CLI, if not how can I use imagemagick's parentheses feature via this wasm implementation?

[dlemstra]

Next file feel free to create separate issues and discussions for this.

3/5: Unable to set font kerning / Unable to set font interlineSpace
In the next version of magick-wasm you will be able to set textKerning and textInterlineSpacing with the MagickSettings or MagickReadSettings.

4: Overload needed when using read with color, width, height, (for settings)
I will not add this overload because of how ImageMagick works internally. When you only specify the width the library will determine the height and the same will happen when you only specify the height.

2: Is there a way to pass in raw flags?
This library uses the API of ImageMagick that is called when the command line flags are parsed. And I will not provide an api to send command line options to some kind of api. And you don't really need the parentheses because of this api design. But feel free to start a new discussion when you need some help with translating a command line api to code..

@dlemstra how " don't really need the parentheses because of this api design"? What if I need to process an image and pass that output without saving and reprocess it? 🙏

I have a rather complicated build command right now all build using the NPM library. With 3 nested parentheses.

I'd love some docs to understand how to do the same with your libary. @dlemstra 🙏

I will be doing some attempts today.

NVM @dlemstra I figured it out with the help of feeding chat gpt all the main exports and some types. Thanks for the great library.
