Editing PhotoShop smart objects using Node

[santa]

Hello All,

I have some simple photoshop files. They have smartobjects in them and want to replace particular images in the smart object programmatically using node.

Nothing too fancy. An exact size image should go and replace in the smartobject.

Any idea if this can be done through node?

Thanks,

Santosh

I'd say good luck getting this done in any language, let alone Node :)

I know of no photoshop libraries for node specifically, but Photoshop can probably be scripted to do what you want. What sort of environment do you need this to run in?

I ideally wanted to do this in Ubuntu. I think Photoshop has a scripting language of some sort. But, I wished I could manipulate using node.

npm search photoshop does show that there’s a PSD file parser; I don’t know how complete, nor whether further manipulation is easy or hard — that might be a place to start.

It’s a proprietary format, so support is, of course, more limited than an interchange format.

I think Adobe did add some more detailed Javascript capabilities to photoshop recently 

heres a link to their api
