Display Images in your terminal with python

Last update: Dec 30, 2022

Overview

`Img`

Display Images in your terminal with python

Installation

The package can be installed via pip

pip install terminal-img

Quick Start

The library is really simple to get started with. Here's is an example of how you display an image

from image import DrawImage

image = DrawImage("image.png")

You can also use a url if you dont have the file locally stored

image = DrawImage.from_url("url")

Methods

`image.DrawImage`

filename: The name of the file containing the image
size(Optional[Tuple]) : The size of the image to be displayed. Default: 24, 24
draw: Whether to draw on creating an instance or wait for the user to call the function

`image.DrawImage.from_url`

url : The url of the image
size(Optional[Tuple]) : The size of the image to be displayed. Default: 24, 24
draw: Whether to draw on creating an instance or wait for the user to call the function

Comments

Storing images in memory instead of on disk.
Discussed in https://github.com/pranavbaburaj/img/discussions/9

^{Originally posted by AnonymouX47 October 5, 2021} This applies in three ways:

A DrawImage instance holds a reference to a PIL image instead of a filepath.

This way, the file doesn't have to be read from disk every time the image is to be drawn.

This will easily allow support for cases where an image is being processed and only currently exists in memory e.g PIL image objects and more.

Increases the speed of repeated image drawing.

Of course, this also comes at the cost of memory but i think the trade-off is worth it.

Makes the library usable in an environment where file writes are either not possible or not wanted (maybe on some servers or cloud-based systems).

The other points below are hinged upon this one.

Images downloaded from URLs are stored as PIL image objects instead of files.

This is dependent upon and shares the benefits/liabilities of (1.).

Frames of GIFs are stored as PIL images instead of files.

This is dependent upon and shares the benefits/liabilities of (1.).

I think this is good because the frames are only used once, so why take them from memory to disk, then back to memory.

Drastically increases speed.

Reduces amount of disk read/write.

Let me know what you think... I've already checked (and tested) and I'm sure 2 and 3 are possible.

CLI
A CLI would be a nice addon to the project. So, user can try out printing images. The current cli need to be polished.

CLI design.

Discrepancies in image colour space interpretation.

Here: https://github.com/pranavbaburaj/img/blob/1309c087b7b7aa5ade183c2800a0789d1529b6ab/image.py#L73 conversion to RGB is not enabled by default but here: https://github.com/pranavbaburaj/img/blob/1309c087b7b7aa5ade183c2800a0789d1529b6ab/image.py#L93 RGB values are expected.

I actually ran into this bug while trying to print a PNG image with a single (alpha) chanel. Here: https://github.com/pranavbaburaj/img/blob/1309c087b7b7aa5ade183c2800a0789d1529b6ab/image.py#L83 pixel_values was just a tuple of integers (0s and 1s), representing the opacity of each pixel.

So, here: https://github.com/pranavbaburaj/img/blob/1309c087b7b7aa5ade183c2800a0789d1529b6ab/image.py#L90-L92 continue was always executed on every iteration.

Therefore, there was no output at all! As expected, the image could only be displayed when I set convert_to_rgb = True when calling draw_image().

I think conversion to RGB should be made the default and then support for other colour spaces can be added later on.

Disable image draw upon instantiation.

https://github.com/pranavbaburaj/img/blob/1309c087b7b7aa5ade183c2800a0789d1529b6ab/image.py#L53-L54

I feel it's rather uncommon and unintuitive for object initialization (class instantiation) to have immediate size effects (e.g printing to the terminal in this case). For instance, PIL doesn't display an image when you create a new image object, you have to explicitly call a method to do that... among so many others.

ObJect initialization has it's purpose... I think drawing the image will be better as a completely explicit action by calling the draw_image() method.

This concerns both the __init__() and from_url() methods and the draw parameter in both.

Convert all color spaces to RGB (fixed #7)

See description of #7. Closes #7

Images in other color spaces are now converted to RGB. It's no longer optional since the ANSI color codes use RGB only.
