Image Alternatives

Reviews and mentions

• I'd like to write a program that combines images into .gifs, but in rust.

  the image crate might be just what you're looking for. more specifically, the gif encoder can do exactly what you want.

  Use image to read individual images and gif to compose them into an animation.

  I've used fits-rs before, but it lacks interop with the awesome image crate, so I only really used it for quick prototyping and then rolled my own fits parser.

• Library for Simple Image Processing (resizing)
  reddit.com/r/rust | 2021-07-14

  I would recommend using the image crate for any image manipulation.

• Written in Rust wishlist?

  https://github.com/image-rs/image has decoding support for WebP luma channel only. Could really use chroma decoding. There is a draft PR, but it's stalled.

• Seeneva - smart comic book reader. ML powered speech balloons zooming.
  reddit.com/r/androidapps | 2021-06-03

  Supports different image formats on any Android device.

• Czkawka 3.1.0 - new version of my app to find duplicates, similar images, same music, broken files etc.
  reddit.com/r/DataHoarder | 2021-05-09

  No, Czkawka uses Image crate which for now doesn't support such image type - https://github.com/image-rs/image/issues/1375

  First, let me explain a crate, where old dependencies do matter. There is one very handy crate called nshare. It's used for converting images into ndarrays. The libraries between nshare converts are regularly updated, for example to support new formats or to make the usage more convenient. If one writes a new software there could be conflicts in versions of ndarray (for example), so we make sure, that nshare is always up-to-date and works with the newest versions in order to build the best code on it. Another example could be everything cryptographic. If there would be a security issue with ring we really want every dependent to be updated.

• Oculante - yet another image viewer
  reddit.com/r/rust | 2021-03-21

  It supports every format the great image crate supports, and improves upon that with animated gif, tonemapped hdr, webp, DDS with DXT1-5, psd, svg and tonemapped exr. If you want more, please add an issue on GH!

• Is there anyone looking for GSOC student for a Rust project ? (or just a contributor for a project ?)

  image crate is the go-to tool for encoding/decoding images in Rust, but there's still plenty of work to be done. I've contributed a bit myself and it was quite pleasant. This is a very widely used crate, so any contributions will reach a lot of people.

• Speedy2D: Easy-to-use library for graphics, text, and input events
  reddit.com/r/rust | 2021-02-28

  Thank you! Currently there's no support for loading images from files, however it's possible to use an external library (e.g. image) to read the image, and then pass the pixel data to Graphics2D::create_image_from_raw_pixels().

• The last and next year of image-rs

  Here's a comparison for encoding JPEGs against Go's implementation.

  reddit.com/r/rust | 2021-02-25

  Someone has taken a stab at implementing webp luma, but it has not been completed: https://github.com/image-rs/image/pull/952

  reddit.com/r/rust | 2021-02-25

  The original JPEG has an ICC profile, I suspect that the color difference comes from using this cmyk_to_rgb() https://github.com/image-rs/image/blob/902b9596c777aed76e4d023f0b8327cd15897139/src/codecs/jpeg/decoder.rs#L118 instead of the transformation specified in the ICC profile.

• Czkawka 2.0 - App to clean duplicates, similar images, broken symlinks etc. now with support of multithreading, new progress bar, performance improvements, Windows support etc.
  reddit.com/r/DataHoarder | 2020-12-27

  At the moment only some of the formats are supported "jpg", "png", "bmp", "ico", "webp", "tiff", "dds", because the image library which I'm using does not support the rest for the time being (but this should change over time) - https://github.com/image-rs/image#supported-image-formats
