Project mention: 3D and 2D: Testing out my cross-platform graphics engine | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-04-02
With the help of the image crate, loading an image from disk is fairly straightforward.
Project mention: OxiPNG: Multithreaded PNG optimizer written in Rust | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-01-08
Project mention: Show HN: OS Image processing API running on edge functions using Rust and WASM | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-04-04Image processing/transformations with built-in CDNs is one of the more common solutions you would find out there but can get pretty expensive and locked in over time.
Vercel is a good example that provides a built-in “next/image” solution for the NextJS framework that optimises images for better performance, however, it gets very expensive as you scale.
Alternatively, running your own service with one of the most common image processing libraries like SharpJS is great but can get pretty difficult to run in a serverless environment with CDNs and all the other bells and whistles alongside all your other code while the cold startup time of Sharp in a serverless environment can be pretty brutal.
With all the growth around rebuilding engines in Rust for performance gains, I thought there must be an image processing library written in Rust which could be compiled to WebAssembly (WASM) and run way faster. That’s when I discovered Photon https://github.com/silvia-odwyer/photon by Silvia, who has done amazing work with the library.
This eventually led me to discover https://github.com/fineshopdesign/cf-wasm/tree/main/packages... that has already transcribed the Photon package into a WASM binary for easy use in edge v8 environments like Cloudflare workers or NextJS Edge functions.
Using these packages I built an API layer on the NextJS framework allowing you to easily process local and remote images at blazing fast speeds with a bunch of helper functions making it similar to use as most paid Image processing APIs. If hosted on Vercel, you can make use of the built-in CDN cache for files less than 10 MB at no extra charge with Edge caching.
Some of the features:
- Blazing fast image processing
- Fully serverless, runs on Vercel Edge functions
- Resize, crop, compress, tint, rotate, format and more
- Global distribution with Edge functions
- Automated CDN cache with Edge functions
- Replacement for `next/image` processing on Vercel
- Local and remote image processing
Some problems:
- The Photon lib has last been updated in 2020
- There are still a few obvious bugs when using it for more advanced requirements like 8k image processing on edge function due to poor memory management in Rust
- No sexy features right now like AI image optimisation and selective background blurring
- If you are looking for an all-in-one solution with Image Storage + image processing/CDN, this is not it (something we will be releasing soon on JigsawStack.com)
I think the Photon library and the API have a lot more potential for growth and will be hoping for more contributions from the community as Rust gets more popular!
https://github.com/twistedfall/opencv-rust makes it evident that they do try to support using a prebuild system-opencv. Maybe it is not correctly recognized?

Project mention: Receiving Weather Satellite Images Using SatDump | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-02-09GOES sats are geostationary but the NOAA APT satellites are encircling the planet and you can pick them up. Old tutorial but still relevant, just use "noaa-apt" tool[0] instead of WXtoImg. https://www.rtl-sdr.com/rtl-sdr-tutorial-receiving-noaa-weat...

There was ffmpeg-sidecar which was announced on here recently
