Image renderer that converts JSON specs into SVG and PNG images using Satori.
Quick Start
import { renderToPng } from "@json-render/image/render";
import type { Spec } from "@json-render/core";
const spec: Spec = {
root: "frame",
elements: {
frame: {
type: "Frame",
props: { width: 1200, height: 630, backgroundColor: "#1a1a2e" },
children: ["heading"],
},
heading: {
type: "Heading",
props: { text: "Hello World", level: "h1", color: "#ffffff" },
children: [],
},
},
};
const png = await renderToPng(spec, {
fonts: [{ name: "Inter", data: fontData, weight: 400, style: "normal" }],
});
Using Standard Components
import { defineCatalog } from "@json-render/core";
import { schema, standardComponentDefinitions } from "@json-render/image";

components: standardComponentDefinitions,
});
Adding Custom Components
import { z } from "zod";
const catalog = defineCatalog(schema, {
components: {
...standardComponentDefinitions,
Badge: {
props: z.object({ label: z.string(), color: z.string().nullable() }),
slots: [],
description: "A colored badge label",
},
},
});
