Replace java resizer with nodejs?

[m1ga]

Currently the image resizing for the iOS icons/splashscreens is done by https://github.com/tidev/node-appc/tree/master/tools/resizer which is a java tool. Could it be that this is the only requirement for an iOS only build to have Java installed? Maybe it could be replaced by something like https://github.com/lovell/sharp (first google hit, not used it) in nodejs.

It is used in https://github.com/tidev/titanium-sdk/blob/master/iphone/cli/commands/_build.js#L6214

I've always wondered if we could do this, I think we'd just have to be careful with it being a native module that the module works on all supported platforms and with how we distribute the SDK (there's no npm install on an end users machine so native modules can be difficult)

ah good point. Thats why java was a good choice 👍 Maybe it can be included in the titanium-cli as that is installed with npm
