Image upload via buffer

#help #node

I'm using buffer in Node.js for image upload in cloudinary but cloudinary doesn't have any option for image transformation for buffer upload.

Is there is any package which have the ability to resize image by reading buffer and return buffer back after resizing it.

I use sharp for all imagetransformation in nodeJS before uploading them to any cloud based service. It works great and the ressources you need are very low

It is possible to implement something like this

sharp(inputBuffer)
  .resize(320, 240)
  .toBuffer()
