If VIPS_DEBUG is defined, you get a version that checks bounds for you.

See also: vips_image_wio_input(), vips_image_inplace(), VIPS_REGION_ADDR().

VIPS_MATRIX()

#define             VIPS_MATRIX( I, X, Y )

This macro returns a pointer to a pixel in an image, cast to a double*. The image must have a single band, be VIPS_FORMAT_DOUBLE and be fully available in memory, so memory buffers and small mapped images only.

If VIPS_DEBUG is defined, you get a version that checks bounds and image type for you.

See also: vips_image_wio_input(), vips_image_inplace(), vips_check_matrix().

vips_image_invalidate_all ()

void
vips_image_invalidate_all (VipsImage *image);

Invalidate all pixel caches on image and any downstream images, that is, images which depend on this image. Additionally, all operations which depend upon this image are dropped from the VIPS operation cache.

You should call this function after destructively modifying an image with something like vips_draw_circle().

The “invalidate” signal is emitted for all invalidated images.

See also: vips_region_invalidate().

vips_image_minimise_all ()

void
vips_image_minimise_all (VipsImage *image);

Minimise memory use on this image and any upstream images, that is, images which this image depends upon. This function is called automatically at the end of a computation, but it might be useful to call at other times.

The “minimise” signal is emitted for all minimised images.

vips_image_set_progress ()

void
vips_image_set_progress (VipsImage *image,
                         gboolean progress);

vips signals evaluation progress via the “preeval”, “eval” and “posteval” signals. Progress is signalled on the most-downstream image for which vips_image_set_progress() was called.

vips_filename_get_filename ()

char *
vips_filename_get_filename (const char *vips_filename);

Given a vips filename like "fred.jpg[Q=90]", return a new string of just the filename part, "fred.jpg" in this case.

See also: vips_filename_get_options().

vips_filename_get_options ()

char *
vips_filename_get_options (const char *vips_filename);

Given a vips filename like "fred.jpg[Q=90]", return a new string of just the options part, "[Q=90]" in this case.

See also: vips_filename_get_filename().

vips_image_new ()

VipsImage *
vips_image_new (void);

vips_image_new() creates a new, empty VipsImage. If you write to one of these images, vips will just attach some callbacks, no pixels will be generated.

Write pixels to an image with vips_image_generate() or vips_image_write_line(). Write a whole image to another image with vips_image_write().

vips_image_new_memory ()

VipsImage *
vips_image_new_memory (void);

vips_image_new_memory() creates a new VipsImage which, when written to, will create a memory image.

See also: vips_image_new().

vips_image_new_from_file ()

VipsImage *
vips_image_new_from_file (const char *name,
                          ...);

Optional arguments:

access : hint VipsAccess mode to loader disc : load via a temporary disc file

vips_image_new_from_file() opens name for reading. It can load files in many image formats, including VIPS, TIFF, PNG, JPEG, FITS, Matlab, OpenEXR, CSV, WebP, Radiance, RAW, PPM and others.

Load options may be appended to filename as "[name=value,...]" or given as a NULL-terminated list of name-value pairs at the end of the arguments. Options given in the function call override options given in the filename. Many loaders add extra options, see vips_jpegload(), for example.

vips_image_new_from_file() always returns immediately with the header fields filled in. No pixels are actually read until you first access them.

access lets you set a VipsAccess hint giving the expected access pattern for this file. VIPS_ACCESS_RANDOM means you can fetch pixels randomly from the image. This is the default mode. VIPS_ACCESS_SEQUENTIAL means you will read the whole image exactly once, top-to-bottom. In this mode, vips can avoid converting the whole image in one go, for a large memory saving. You are allowed to make small non-local references, so area operations like convolution will work. VIPS_ACCESS_SEQUENTIAL_UNBUFFERED does not allow non-local references, so will only work for very strict top-to-bottom operations, but does have very low memory needs.

In VIPS_ACCESS_RANDOM mode, small images are decompressed to memory and then processed from there. Large images are decompressed to temporary random-access files on disc and then processed from there. Set disc to TRUE to force loading via disc. See vips_image_new_temp_file() for an explanation of how VIPS selects a location for the temporary file.

The disc threshold can be set with the "--vips-disc-threshold" command-line argument, or the VIPS_DISC_THRESHOLD environment variable. The value is a simple integer, but can take a unit postfix of "k", "m" or "g" to indicate kilobytes, megabytes or gigabytes. The default threshold is 100 MB.

For example:

1
2
3

VipsImage *image = vips_image_new_from_file ("fred.tif",
    "page", 12,
    NULL);

Will open "fred.tif", reading page 12.

1
2

VipsImage *image = vips_image_new_from_file ("fred.jpg[shrink=2]",
    NULL);

Will open "fred.jpg", downsampling by a factor of two.

Use vips_foreign_find_load() or vips_foreign_is_a() to see what format a file is in and therefore what options are available. If you need more control over the loading process, you can call loaders directly, see vips_jpegload(), for example.

See also: vips_foreign_find_load(), vips_foreign_is_a(), vips_image_write_to_file().

vips_image_new_from_file_RW ()

VipsImage *
vips_image_new_from_file_RW (const char *filename);

Opens the named file for simultaneous reading and writing. This will only work for VIPS files in a format native to your machine. It is only for paintbox-type applications.

See also: vips_draw_circle().

vips_image_new_from_file_raw ()

VipsImage *
vips_image_new_from_file_raw (const char *filename,
                              int xsize,
                              int ysize,
                              int bands,
                              guint64 offset);

This function maps the named file and returns a VipsImage you can use to read it.

It returns an 8-bit image with bands bands. If the image is not 8-bit, use vips_copy() to transform the descriptor after loading it.

See also: vips_copy(), vips_rawload(), vips_image_new_from_file().

vips_image_new_from_memory ()

VipsImage *
vips_image_new_from_memory (void *data,
                            size_t size,
                            int width,
                            int height,

                            VipsBandFormat format);

This function wraps a VipsImage around a memory area. The memory area must be a simple array, for example RGBRGBRGB, left-to-right, top-to-bottom. Use vips_image_new_from_buffer() to load an area of memory containing an image in a format.

VIPS does not take responsibility for the area of memory, it's up to you to make sure it's freed when the image is closed. See for example “close”.

Use vips_copy() to set other image properties.

See also: vips_image_new(), vips_image_write_to_memory().

vips_image_new_from_buffer ()

VipsImage *
vips_image_new_from_buffer (void *buf,
                            size_t len,
                            const char *option_string,
                            ...);

Loads an image from the formatted area of memory buf , len using the loader recommended by vips_foreign_find_load_buffer(). Only TIFF, PNG and JPEG formats are supported. To load an unformatted area of memory, use vips_image_new_from_memory().

VIPS does not take responsibility for the area of memory, it's up to you to make sure it's freed when the image is closed. See for example “close”.

Load options may be given in option_string as "[name=value,...]" or given as a NULL-terminated list of name-value pairs at the end of the arguments. Options given in the function call override options given in the filename.

See also: vips_image_write_to_buffer().

vips_image_new_matrix ()

VipsImage *
vips_image_new_matrix (int width,
                       int height);

This convenience function makes an image which is a matrix: a one-band VIPS_FORMAT_DOUBLE image held in memory.

Use VIPS_IMAGE_ADDR(), or VIPS_MATRIX() to address pixels in the image.

Use vips_image_set_double() to set "scale" and "offset", if required.

See also: vips_image_new_matrixv()

vips_image_new_matrixv ()

VipsImage *
vips_image_new_matrixv (int width,
                        int height,
                        ...);

As vips_image_new_matrix(), but initialise the matrix from the argument list. After height should be width * height double constants which are used to set the matrix elements.

See also: vips_image_new_matrix()

vips_image_new_matrix_from_array ()

VipsImage *
vips_image_new_matrix_from_array (int width,
                                  int height,
                                  double *array,
                                  int size);

A binding-friendly version of vips_image_new_matrixv().

vips_image_set_delete_on_close ()

void
vips_image_set_delete_on_close (VipsImage *image,
                                gboolean delete_on_close);

Sets the delete_on_close flag for the image. If this flag is set, when image is finalized, the filename held in image->filename at the time of this call is deleted.

This function is clearly extremely dangerous, use with great caution.

See also: vips_image_new_temp_file().

vips_get_disc_threshold ()

guint64
vips_get_disc_threshold (void);

Return the number of bytes at which we flip between open via memory and open via disc. This defaults to 100mb, but can be changed with the VIPS_DISC_THRESHOLD environment variable or the --vips-disc-threshold command-line flag. See vips_image_new_from_file().

vips_image_new_temp_file ()

VipsImage *
vips_image_new_temp_file (const char *format);

Make a VipsImage which, when written to, will create a temporary file on disc. The file will be automatically deleted when the image is destroyed. format is something like "%s.v" for a vips file.

The file is created in the temporary directory. This is set with the environment variable TMPDIR. If this is not set, then on Unix systems, vips will default to /tmp. On Windows, vips uses GetTempPath() to find the temporary directory.

vips uses g_mkstemp() to make the temporary filename. They generally look something like "vips-12-EJKJFGH.v".

See also: vips_image_new().

vips_image_write ()

int
vips_image_write (VipsImage *image,
                  VipsImage *out);

Writes in to name using the saver recommended by vips_foreign_find_save().

Save options may be appended to filename as "[name=value,...]" or given as a NULL-terminated list of name-value pairs at the end of the arguments. Options given in the function call override options given in the filename.

See also: vips_image_new_from_file().

vips_image_write_to_buffer ()

int
vips_image_write_to_buffer (VipsImage *in,
                            const char *suffix,

                            size_t *size,
                            ...);

Writes in to a memory buffer in a format specified by suffix .

Save options may be appended to suffix as "[name=value,...]" or given as a NULL-terminated list of name-value pairs at the end of the arguments. Options given in the function call override options given in the filename.

Currently only TIFF, JPEG and PNG formats are supported.

You can call the various save operations directly if you wish, see vips_jpegsave_buffer(), for example.

See also: vips_image_decode().

vips_image_decode ()

int
vips_image_decode (VipsImage *in,
                   VipsImage **out);

Return TRUE if im represents a partial image (a delayed calculation).

vips_image_wio_input ()

int
vips_image_wio_input (VipsImage *image);

Check that an image is readable via the VIPS_IMAGE_ADDR() macro, that is, that the entire image is in memory and all pixels can be read with VIPS_IMAGE_ADDR().

See also: vips_image_pio_input(), vips_image_inplace(), VIPS_IMAGE_ADDR().

vips_image_pio_input ()

int
vips_image_pio_input (VipsImage *image);

Check that an image is readable with vips_region_prepare() and friends. If it isn't, try to transform the image so that vips_region_prepare() can work.

See also: vips_image_pio_output(), vips_region_prepare().

vips_image_pio_output ()

Write a line of pixels to an image. This function must be called repeatedly with ypos increasing from 0 to “height” . linebuffer must be VIPS_IMAGE_SIZEOF_LINE() bytes long.

See also: vips_image_generate().

vips_band_format_isint ()

gboolean
vips_band_format_isint (VipsBandFormat format);

Return TRUE if format is one of the integer types.

             ...);

Optional arguments:

in : array of input images out : output image in_format : write input files like this out_format : write output filename like this log : stdout of command is returned here

vips_system() runs a command, optionally passing a set of images in and optionally getting an image back. The command's stdout is returned in log .

First, if in is set, the array of images are written to files. See vips_image_new_temp_file() to see how temporary files are created. If in_format is something like %s.png, the file will be written in PNG format. By default, in_format is %s.tif.

If out_format is set, an output filename is formed in the same way.

The command string to run is made by substituting the first set of %s in cmd_format for the names of the input files, if in is set, and then the next %s for the output filename, if out_format is set. You can put a number between the % and the s to change the order in which the substitution occurs.

The command is executed with popen() and the output captured in log .

After the command finishes, if out_format is set, the output image is opened and returned in out . Closing out image will automatically delete the output file.

Finally the input images are deleted.

For example, this call will run the ImageMagick convert program on an image, using JPEG files to pass images into and out of the convert command.

enum VipsDemandStyle

See vips_image_pipelinev(). Operations can hint to the VIPS image IO system about the kind of demand geometry they prefer.

These demand styles are given below in order of increasing restrictiveness. When demanding output from a pipeline, vips_image_generate() will use the most restrictive of the styles requested by the operations in the pipeline.

VIPS_DEMAND_STYLE_THINSTRIP --- This operation would like to output strips the width of the image and a few pels high. This is option suitable for point-to-point operations, such as those in the arithmetic package.

This option is only efficient for cases where each output pel depends upon the pel in the corresponding position in the input image.

VIPS_DEMAND_STYLE_FATSTRIP --- This operation would like to output strips the width of the image and as high as possible. This option is suitable for area operations which do not violently transform coordinates, such as vips_conv().

VIPS_DEMAND_STYLE_SMALLTILE --- This is the most general demand format. Output is demanded in small (around 100x100 pel) sections. This style works reasonably efficiently, even for bizzare operations like 45 degree rotate.

VIPS_DEMAND_STYLE_ANY --- This image is not being demand-read from a disc file (even indirectly) so any demand style is OK. It's used for things like vips_black() where the pixels are calculated.

See also: vips_image_pipelinev().

enum VipsImageType

enum VipsInterpretation

How the values in an image should be interpreted. For example, a three-band float image of type VIPS_INTERPRETATION_LAB should have its pixels interpreted as coordinates in CIE Lab space.

These values are set by operations as hints to user-interfaces built on top of VIPS to help them show images to the user in a meaningful way. Operations do not use these values to decide their action.

The gaps in numbering are historical and must be maintained. Allocate new numbers from the end.

enum VipsBandFormat

The format used for each band element.

Each corresponds to a native C type for the current machine. For example, VIPS_FORMAT_USHORT is unsigned short.

enum VipsCoding

How pixels are coded.

Normally, pixels are uncoded and can be manipulated as you would expect. However some file formats code pixels for compression, and sometimes it's useful to be able to manipulate images in the coded format.

The gaps in the numbering are historical and must be maintained. Allocate new numbers from the end.

enum VipsAccess

The type of access an operation has to supply. See vips_tilecache() and VipsForeign.

VIPS_ACCESS_RANDOM means requests can come in any order.

VIPS_ACCESS_SEQUENTIAL means requests will be top-to-bottom, but with some amount of buffering behind the read point for small non-local accesses.

VIPS_ACCESS_SEQUENTIAL_UNBUFFERED means requests will be strictly top-to-bottom with no read-behind. This can save some memory.

VipsProgress

typedef struct {
	int run;		/* Time we have been running */
	int eta;		/* Estimated seconds of computation left */
	gint64 tpels;		/* Number of pels we expect to calculate */
	gint64 npels;		/* Number of pels calculated so far */
	int percent;		/* Percent complete */
	GTimer *start;		/* Start time */
} VipsProgress;

A structure available to eval callbacks giving information on evaluation progress. See “eval”.

The “bands” property

  “bands”                    gint

Number of bands in image.

The “eval” signal

void
user_function (VipsImage *image,
               gpointer   progress,
               gpointer   user_data)

The ::eval signal is emitted once per work unit (typically a 128 x 128 area of pixels) during image computation.

You can use this signal to update user-interfaces with progress feedback. Beware of updating too frequently: you will usually need some throttling mechanism.

Use vips_image_set_progress() to turn on progress reporting for an image.

Flags: Run Last

The “invalidate” signal

void
user_function (VipsImage *image,
               gpointer   user_data)

The ::invalidate signal is emitted when an image or one of it's upstream data sources has been destructively modified. See vips_image_invalidate_all().

Flags: Action

The “minimise” signal

void
user_function (VipsImage *image,
               gpointer   user_data)

The ::minimise signal is emitted when an image has been asked to minimise memory usage. All non-essential caches are dropped. See vips_image_minimise_all().

Flags: Action

The “posteval” signal

void
user_function (VipsImage *image,
               gpointer   progress,
               gpointer   user_data)

The ::posteval signal is emitted once at the end of the computation of image . It's a good place to shut down evaluation feedback.

Use vips_image_set_progress() to turn on progress reporting for an image.

Flags: Run Last

The “preeval” signal

void
user_function (VipsImage *image,
               gpointer   progress,
               gpointer   user_data)

The ::preeval signal is emitted once before computation of image starts. It's a good place to set up evaluation feedback.

Use vips_image_set_progress() to turn on progress reporting for an image.

Flags: Run Last

The “written” signal

void
user_function (VipsImage *image,
               gpointer   result,
               gpointer   user_data)

The ::written signal is emitted just after an image has been written to. It is used by vips to implement things like write to foreign file formats.
