ctx.fillStyle = "white";
ctx.textAlign = "center";
ctx.font = "bold 18px Poppins";
ctx.fillText(shape.memberName, circleX, rectY + 80);
ctx.fillStyle = "#4e4e6a";
ctx.textAlign = "center";
ctx.font = "semi 12px Poppins";
ctx.fillText(shape.memberUsername, circleX, rectY + 95);

ctx.textAlign = "center";
ctx.font = "semi 14px Poppins";
ctx.fillText(
Math.floor(shape.voiceTimeMs / 60000) + " minutes",
circleX,

it's likely that your path is just incorrect
@exotic goblet do you see what could be causing the font to not get loaded?
exotic goblet
Unfortunately, I’m not too familiar with node-canvas
I’d have to play with it and see what’s going on
proven meadow
but is that a proper path? looks like it could be simplified?
exotic goblet
The way it’s being called there feels like it would be treated as a system font, instead of an imported one
If it can’t find it, it will default to actual system fonts

@stoic escarp - are you providing this font in your repo?
proven meadow
this is more likely the correct package
https://www.npmjs.com/package/canvas
exotic goblet
They said node-canvas not canvas
proven meadow
maybe the path is correct, but the container is missing the lib that would read the font file?
npm names are confusing
this would still count as node-canvas
exotic goblet
This is why I don’t use node
exotic goblet
But according to the canvas docs, the implementation is correct
proven meadow
correct, though probably sub optimal import path
exotic goblet
Might be time to throw some console.log() statements. Unless someone familiar with the package knows what’s going on
proven meadow
no one is familiar with npm packages

Fair

proven meadow

He’s really not joking. Perl, python, PHP, go, c#, you name it
