question on usage in layer about imagemagick-aws-lambda-2

[anija]

Solved! I was finally able tu build with freetype enabled.
Here's the Layer .zip to be uplaoded on AWS ;)
Archivio.zip

@anija - This one worked for me, thank you very much for sharing it, you saved me a ton of work

I've the same problem: everything is fine, resize and other functions works fine, but the drawText just don't work and doesn't raise any error/warning.

Here's the solution: #6

The compiled build in #6 is not working for me (buffer is always empty).
I've tried to build the library from 0, without changing anything from the repo, and the result is the same: buffer is always empty. I'm building with MacOs.

Any chance to get a precompiled and working layer zip with freetype?

@anija Any chance we can get a hand with this? Uploaded Archivio.zip as a new layer, linked the layer to our simple Lambda function, and now code that worked with imagemagick-aws-lambda-2 is no longer working – produces Stream yields empty buffer output.

Here's our Lambda function with the extraneous bits removed, but this is the exact gm() call that we're making with this new layer:

const gm = require('gm').subClass({ imageMagick: true });
...
gm(path.join(__dirname, '/file.jpg'))
    .toBuffer('jpeg', (err, buffer) => {
        if (err) return console.error(err); <-- this throws.
        console.log(buffer)
    });

Is there anything else we need to do to use / link this layer and its binaries properly?

@anija I'm not following. The .zip that you posted appears to be HarfBuzz OpenType text engine.

How does this work with imagemagick?
