WebP

Build Status Coverage Code Style: Blue

WebP.jl is a Julia library for handling WebP images. WebP provides both lossy and lossless compression of images, and may offer smaller file sizes compared to JPEG and PNG.

The core functionality of this package is supported by the libwebp C library.

This package provides functions for reading and writing WebP image files,

• WebP.read_webp
• WebP.write_webp

as well as functions for decoding and encoding WebP image data,

• WebP.decode
• WebP.encode

An image may be written,

using TestImages
using WebP
image = testimage("lighthouse")
WebP.write_webp("lighthouse.webp", image)

and subsequently read,

image = WebP.read_webp("lighthouse.webp")

An image may be encoded,

using TestImages
using WebP
image = testimage("lighthouse")
data = WebP.encode(image) # data is a Vector{UInt8}

and subsequently decoded,

image = WebP.decode(data)
