Convert DWG to BMP using Node.js REST API

This guide explains how to convert CAD to BMP using a Node.js-based Cloud SDK. It has details to set the environment, a list of steps, and a sample code to perform the conversion by using a couple of API calls. You can use a source file from the disk or Cloud storage while converting the file format from CAD to BMP using Node.js Low Code API.

Prerequisite

Steps to Convert DWG to BMP using Node.js REST API

  1. Instantiate the CadApi class object and set the client ID, secret, and base URL
  2. Set the input CAD file name and output BMP file name for processing
  3. Read the DWG file contents into the memory stream
  4. Initialize the memory stream to initial position for further processing
  5. Create the PutDrawingBmpRequest object and pass the memory stream as an argument
  6. Call the PutDrawingBmp() method and pass the custom request object
  7. Retrieve the memory stream from the API response and save it to the disk

These steps define the process of converting a DWG to BMP using Node.js REST API. Create the CadApi object using client secret, ID, and base URL. Read the source DWG file into the memory stream, reset memory to start for further processing, and create a PutDrawingBmpRequest object with the DWG file memory stream object that is used by the PutDrawingBmp() while converting the file format. Finally, retrieve the API response stream and save it to the disk.

Code to Convert DWG to BMP using Node.js-based API

This code has demonstrated the process of developing a DWG to BMP converter using Node.js RESTful Service. This conversion allows for transforming a detailed vector graphics into a raster image that can be viewed or used in many image viewing applications or tools. You may utilize the output BMP in websites. Options are also available to convert the DWG to many other formats.

This tutorial has explained how to change DWG to BMP. To transform a DWG file to an SVG file, refer to the article on Convert DWG into SVG using Node.js REST API.
