Photopea Embedded Editor Skill

Using photopea.js (yikuansun/PhotopeaAPI) in Websites & Apps

When to Use This Skill

Use this skill for every task that involves:

Embedding Photopea as an image editor inside a webpage or web app
Controlling an embedded Photopea instance from your JavaScript code
Automating image editing workflows from a host page (open files, run scripts, export results)
Building an image editing feature into your product using Photopea as the engine
Writing scripts to manipulate documents, layers, text, selections, filters, colors, and paths

Do NOT use raw postMessage wiring — always use photopea.js as the wrapper.

Library: photopea.js

photopea.js is a Promises-based JavaScript wrapper around the Photopea Live Messaging API. Repository: https://github.com/yikuansun/PhotopeaAPI npm package: https://www.npmjs.com/package/photopea

Problem	Cause	Fix
`createEmbed` never resolves	Container has no size	Add `width` + `height` CSS to the container `<div>`
`runScript` returns `["done"]` with no data	No `echoToOE` in script	Add `app.echoToOE(value)` for anything you want back
`result[0]` is `"done"`, not the expected value	`echoToOE` not reached	Check script logic for early exit or errors
Images won't load (network error)	CORS	Server must respond with `Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *`
`openFromURL(url, true)` layer not ready	Async loading lag	Use `addImageAndWait` utility
`exportImage` only PNG/JPG	`exportImage` limitation	Use `runScript("saveToOE('webp:0.85')")` for other formats
Pixel coordinates behave unexpectedly	Wrong ruler units	Always set `app.preferences.rulerUnits = Units.PIXELS` first
Text `size` set but looks different	Wrong type units	Set `app.preferences.typeUnits = TypeUnits.PIXELS`
Layer not found by name	Wrong layer level	Layers are scoped; use recursive search for nested layers
`layer.bounds[0]` returns a UnitValue, not number	Ruler units issue	Force `Units.PIXELS` before reading bounds
Smart Object edit hangs	Missing `doc.save(); doc.close()`	Always save + close when done editing SO
React double-mount in dev	Strict Mode	Use `if (peaRef.current) return` guard in `useEffect`
