## An npm/nodejs wrapper for imagesnap

[imagesnap](https://github.com/rharder/imagesnap) is an OSX tool for capturing webcam photos from the command line,

written by [Robert Harder](https://github.com/rharder). (Thanks!)

imagesnapjs is first a wrapper, for making imagesnap installation as easy as `npm i -g imagesnapjs`,

and second, an npm dependency for capturing webcam shots from nodejs applications.

### As a command line tool

##### Installation

```

$ npm install -g imagesnapjs

```

##### Usage

see [the original documentation](https://github.com/rharder/imagesnap) or just type `imagesnap -h`.

### As an npm module

##### Installation

```

$ npm install --save imagesnapjs

```

##### Usage

```

var imagesnapjs = require('imagesnapjs');

imagesnapjs.capture('/Users/dany/image.jpg', { cliflags: '-w 2'}, function(err) {

  console.log(err ? err : 'Success!');

});

```

The second options parameter is optional, and can include a

`cliflags` value of additional command line flags to be passed to the imagesnap command execution.

### Notes

* this is OSX specific! execution of the binary will fail on other systems.
