Photoshop Automation: batch resize & export images for Xcode .xcassets catalogs as @1x, @2x, @3x resolution versions from @3x source images.
// batch-export-ios-assets.jsx
// Licensed under MIT. See below.
//
// Tested with: macOS 10.15.6, Adobe Photoshop 2020 v21.2.3 Release
//
// Description:
// A JS script that enables simple automated *batch* exporting for
// images in the @1x, @2x, @3x sizes required for Xcode .xcasset catalogs
//
// This script makes a few assumptions, you should either adjust
// your local workflow to meet these, or edit the script before running:
//
// - Your source images are already in 3x resolution
// - Your source images are NOT named @3x, because this script handles that
// - That you are exporting every image in the folder you select as a source
// - That you want the resized files exported using the same name as the original
//
// Preparing your Files:
// - Use your photo processing tool to export your source images at 3x resolution
// Generally, you shouldn't scale up raster images like pngs, because it
// causes quality loss, so export your source file in @3x (don't name it that, just at 3x resolution)
//
// Running this script:
// - Download this gist and unzip it
// - Open the .jsx file with Photoshop (drag it to the PS icon, or right click and "open with" works best)
// - It will prompt you for the folder that contains the assets you want export @1x and @2x versions for
// - It will prompt you to select the output folder
// - Go get coffee, processing time depends on your local machine and you will not be notified when it is done.
//
// This script was adapted for iOS assets from another
// author. Thanks!
