• Step 1: Install using npm.

npm install pixteroid

• Step 2: Follow Demo repository - pixteroid-demo

const { upscale } = require("pixteroid");
const { join, relative } = require("path");

const imagePath = "image-samples/0200.png";
const outputPath = join("single-output", relative(process.cwd(), imagePath));
const level = "level1"; //level1 or level2 or level3 - low to higher level

upscale(imagePath, outputPath, level)
  .then(() => {
    console.log("done");
  })
  .catch((err) => {
    console.log(err);
  });

const { globSync } = require("glob");
const { upscaleAll } = require("pixteroid");

/* only 50 samples taken by slicing */
const imagePaths = globSync("image-samples/**.jpg").slice(0, 50);
const destinationPath = "output-samples";
const level = "level1"; //level1 or level2 or level3 - low to higher level
const batchSize = 2; //This is optional parameter def=2

upscaleAll(imagePaths, destinationPath, level, batchSize)
  .then(() => {
    console.log("done");
  })
  .catch((err) => {
    console.log(err);
  });

I would like to extend our gratitude to Xintao for implementing Real-ESRGAN with the NCNN framework. Special thanks to Tencent for creating the NCNN framework, a high-performance neural network inference computing framework optimized for mobile platforms. NCNN is designed with mobile deployment in mind, is cross-platform, and runs faster than all known open-source frameworks on mobile CPUs. It is currently used in various Tencent applications, such as QQ, Qzone, WeChat, and Pitu.
