A small library to abstract taking photos using the command line with node.js
To use this you need to install the package node-webcam. However this has a hard dependency on a package installed through homebrew. Annoying I know
// If you havent installed homebrew, do that here:
// https://brew.sh/
brew install imagesnap
npm install node-webcam
