All image processing functions provided operate on types that implement the `GenericImageView` and `GenericImage` traits and return an `ImageBuffer`. ## Supported Image Formats `image` provides implementations of common image format encoders and decoders. | Format | Decoding | Encoding | | ------ | -------- | -------- | | AVIF | Only 8-bit \*\* | Lossy | | BMP | Yes | Rgb8, Rgba8, Gray8, GrayA8 | | DDS | DXT1, DXT3, DXT5 | No | | Farbfeld | Yes | Yes | | GIF | Yes | Yes | | ICO | Yes | Yes | | JPEG | Baseline and progressive | Baseline JPEG | | OpenEXR | Rgb32F, Rgba32F (no dwa compression) | Rgb32F, Rgba32F (no dwa compression) | | PNG | All supported color types | Same as decoding | | PNM | PBM, PGM, PPM, standard PAM | Yes | | QOI | Yes | Yes | | TGA | Yes | Rgb8, Rgba8, Bgr8, Bgra8, Gray8, GrayA8 | | TIFF | Baseline(no fax support) + LZW + PackBits | Rgb8, Rgba8, Gray8 | | WebP | Yes | Rgb8, Rgba8 \* | - \* Requires the `webp-encoder` feature, uses the libwebp C library. - \*\* Requires the `avif-decoder` feature, uses the libdav1d C library. ### The [`ImageDecoder`](https://docs.rs/image/*/image/trait.ImageDecoder.html) and [`ImageDecoderRect`](https://docs.rs/image/*/image/trait.ImageDecoderRect.html) Traits All image format decoders implement the `ImageDecoder` trait which provide basic methods for getting image metadata and decoding images. Some formats additionally provide `ImageDecoderRect` implementations which allow for decoding only part of an image at once. The most important methods for decoders are... + **dimensions**: Return a tuple containing the width and height of the image. + **color_type**: Return the color type of the image data produced by this decoder. + **read_image**: Decode the entire image into a slice of bytes. ## Pixels `image` provides the following pixel types: + **Rgb**: RGB pixel + **Rgba**: RGB with alpha (RGBA pixel) + **Luma**: Grayscale pixel + **LumaA**: Grayscale with alpha All pixels are parameterised by their component type. ## Images Individual pixels within images are indexed with (0,0) at the top left corner. ### The [`GenericImageView`](https://docs.rs/image/*/image/trait.GenericImageView.html) and [`GenericImage`](https://docs.rs/image/*/image/trait.GenericImage.html) Traits Traits that provide methods for inspecting (`GenericImageView`) and manipulating (`GenericImage`) images, parameterised over the image's pixel type. Some of these methods for `GenericImageView` are... + **dimensions**: Return a tuple containing the width and height of the image. + **get_pixel**: Returns the pixel located at (x, y). + **pixels**: Returns an Iterator over the pixels of this image. While some of the methods for `GenericImage` are... + **put_pixel**: Put a pixel at location (x, y). + **copy_from**: Copies all of the pixels from another image into this image. ### Representation of Images `image` provides two main ways of representing image data: #### [`ImageBuffer`](https://docs.rs/image/*/image/struct.ImageBuffer.html) An image parameterised by its Pixel types, represented by a width and height and a vector of pixels. It provides direct access to its pixels and implements the `GenericImageView` and `GenericImage` traits. ```rust use image::{GenericImage, GenericImageView, ImageBuffer, RgbImage}; // Construct a new RGB ImageBuffer with the specified width and height. let img: RgbImage = ImageBuffer::new(512, 512); // Construct a new by repeated calls to the supplied closure. let mut img = ImageBuffer::from_fn(512, 512, |x, y| { if x % 2 == 0 { image::Luma([0u8]) } else { image::Luma([255u8]) } }); // Obtain the image's width and height. let (width, height) = img.dimensions(); // Access the pixel at coordinate (100, 100). let pixel = img[(100, 100)]; // Or use the `get_pixel` method from the `GenericImage` trait. let pixel = *img.get_pixel(100, 100); // Put a pixel at coordinate (100, 100). img.put_pixel(100, 100, pixel); // Iterate over all pixels in the image. for pixel in img.pixels() { // Do something with pixel. } ``` #### [`DynamicImage`](https://docs.rs/image/*/image/enum.DynamicImage.html) A `DynamicImage` is an enumeration over all supported `ImageBuffer
` types. Its exact image type is determined at runtime. It is the type returned when opening an image. For convenience `DynamicImage` reimplements all image processing functions. `DynamicImage` implement the `GenericImageView` and `GenericImage` traits for RGBA pixels. #### [`SubImage`](https://docs.rs/image/*/image/struct.SubImage.html) A view into another image, delimited by the coordinates of a rectangle. The coordinates given set the position of the top left corner of the rectangle. This is used to perform image processing functions on a subregion of an image. ```rust use image::{GenericImageView, ImageBuffer, RgbImage, imageops}; let mut img: RgbImage = ImageBuffer::new(512, 512); let subimg = imageops::crop(&mut img, 0, 0, 100, 100); assert!(subimg.dimensions() == (100, 100)); ``` ## Image Processing Functions These are the functions defined in the `imageops` module. All functions operate on types that implement the `GenericImage` trait. Note that some of the functions are very slow in debug mode. Make sure to use release mode if you experience any performance issues. + **blur**: Performs a Gaussian blur on the supplied image. + **brighten**: Brighten the supplied image. + **huerotate**: Hue rotate the supplied image by degrees. + **contrast**: Adjust the contrast of the supplied image. + **crop**: Return a mutable view into an image. + **filter3x3**: Perform a 3x3 box filter on the supplied image. + **flip_horizontal**: Flip an image horizontally. + **flip_vertical**: Flip an image vertically. + **grayscale**: Convert the supplied image to grayscale. + **invert**: Invert each pixel within the supplied image This function operates in place. + **resize**: Resize the supplied image to the specified dimensions. + **rotate180**: Rotate an image 180 degrees clockwise. + **rotate270**: Rotate an image 270 degrees clockwise. + **rotate90**: Rotate an image 90 degrees clockwise. + **unsharpen**: Performs an unsharpen mask on the supplied image. For more options, see the [`imageproc`](https://crates.io/crates/imageproc) crate. ## Examples ### Opening and Saving Images `image` provides the `open` function for opening images from a path. The image format is determined from the path's file extension. An `io` module provides a reader which offer some more control. ```rust,no_run use image::GenericImageView; fn main() { // Use the open function to load an image from a Path. // `open` returns a `DynamicImage` on success. let img = image::open("tests/images/jpg/progressive/cat.jpg").unwrap(); // The dimensions method returns the images width and height. println!("dimensions {:?}", img.dimensions()); // The color method returns the image's `ColorType`. println!("{:?}", img.color()); // Write the contents of this image to the Writer in PNG format. img.save("test.png").unwrap(); } ``` ### Generating Fractals ```rust,no_run //! An example of generating julia fractals. fn main() { let imgx = 800; let imgy = 800; let scalex = 3.0 / imgx as f32; let scaley = 3.0 / imgy as f32; // Create a new ImgBuf with width: imgx and height: imgy let mut imgbuf = image::ImageBuffer::new(imgx, imgy); // Iterate over the coordinates and pixels of the image for (x, y, pixel) in imgbuf.enumerate_pixels_mut() { let r = (0.3 * x as f32) as u8; let b = (0.3 * y as f32) as u8; *pixel = image::Rgb([r, 0, b]); } // A redundant loop to demonstrate reading image data for x in 0..imgx { for y in 0..imgy { let cx = y as f32 * scalex - 1.5; let cy = x as f32 * scaley - 1.5; let c = num_complex::Complex::new(-0.4, 0.6); let mut z = num_complex::Complex::new(cx, cy); let mut i = 0; while i < 255 && z.norm() <= 2.0 { z = z * z + c; i += 1; } let pixel = imgbuf.get_pixel_mut(x, y); let image::Rgb(data) = *pixel; *pixel = image::Rgb([data[0], i as u8, data[2]]); } } // Save the image as “fractal.png”, the format is deduced from the path imgbuf.save("fractal.png").unwrap(); } ``` Example output: ### Writing raw buffers If the high level interface is not needed because the image was obtained by other means, `image` provides the function `save_buffer` to save a buffer to a file. ```rust,no_run fn main() { let buffer: &[u8] = unimplemented!(); // Generate the image data // Save the buffer as "image.png" image::save_buffer("image.png", buffer, 800, 600, image::ColorType::Rgb8).unwrap() } ```
