Hi @gemini86 , Sorry for the disturb. I have installed your node and I have 2 question.

1. Is possible save the image how file (the output is a buffer) with file node?
2. I have try your exapmple ([[SOLVED] Using node-red-contrib-chart-image](https://discourse.nodered.org/t/solved-using-node-red-contrib-chart-image/35300)) but receive even a error in debug tab.

```auto
"TypeError: CanvasRenderService is not a constructor"

```

I miss something?

Thanks a lot

I am also interested in this, because I am using this quite a lot. I even made a video on this and in the comment I was told the same. Something appears to have changed in the canvas.  
Now I am afraid to update canvas.

To be honest, I would also be interested of using canvas in a function node to dynamically generate and image.
