Headless rendering

[TudorHulban]

hi,
is headless rendering supported? would there be an example?
thank you!

headless like with node-canvas rather than Puppeteer in headless mode?

the title, legend, cursor, hovered points, and selected area are rendered in the DOM, but you can disable those.

the plot, grid, axes and labels are rendered on Canvas so this part should be do-able with likely some minor tweaks.

something like:

the constraint for some solutions is that what you see on browser you should have sent by email.

ok, this is basically headless Puppeteer or an alternative like what's done in #175.

i don't think there's anything specific that uPlot needs to do in this case. you would just need to provide the matching chart config and data to the server for it to re-render there.
