# Webp-ffi [![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/le0pard/webp-ffi.png)](https://travis-ci.org/le0pard/webp-ffi) [![Code Climate](https://codeclimate.com/github/le0pard/webp-ffi.png)](https://codeclimate.com/github/le0pard/webp-ffi) Ruby wrapper for libwebp. What is WebP? WebP is a new image format that provides lossless and lossy compression for images on the web. WebP lossless images are 26% smaller in size compared to PNGs. WebP lossy images are 25-34% smaller in size compared to JPEG images at equivalent SSIM index. WebP supports lossless transparency (also known as alpha channel) with just 22% additional bytes. Transparency is also supported with lossy compression and typically provides 3x smaller file sizes compared to PNG when lossy compression is acceptable for the red/green/blue color channels. ## [WebP Gallery](https://developers.google.com/speed/webp/gallery) ## Installation ### Requirements First of all you should have install libraries: libpng, libjpeg and libtiff. For Ubuntu, Debian: sudo apt-get install libjpeg-dev libpng-dev libtiff-dev For Mac OS: brew install libjpg libpng libtiff webp or (for MacPorts): sudo port install jpeg libpng tiff Next, you should [install libwebp](https://developers.google.com/speed/webp/docs/compiling) (if you didn't install it by `brew` in Mac OS). This gem is not support Windows systems (sorry). ### Final part Add this line to your application's Gemfile: gem 'webp-ffi' And then execute: $ bundle Or install it yourself as: $ gem install webp-ffi ## Usage ### Encoder end Decoder versions Basic info about libwebp (encoder and decoder versions): $ irb 2.0.0p0 :001 > require 'webp_ffi' => true 2.0.0p0 :002 > WebP.decoder_version => "0.3.1" 2.0.0p0 :003 > WebP.encoder_version => "0.3.1" ### WebP size (width and height) Get size (width and height) from webp image: filename = File.expand_path(File.join(File.dirname(__FILE__), "spec/factories/4.webp")) WebP.webp_size(File.open(filename, "rb").read) => [2000, 2353] ### Encode WebP image Encode png, jpg or tiff image to webp: filename = File.expand_path(File.join(File.dirname(__FILE__), "spec/factories/4.png")) out_filename = File.expand_path(File.join(File.dirname(__FILE__), "tmp/4.webp")) WebP.encode(filename, out_filename) Encode png, jpg or tiff image to webp with options: WebP.encode(filename, out_filename, quality: 50, resize_w: 100, resize_h: 200) WebP.encode(filename, out_filename, quality: 75, crop_x: 0, cropt_y: 0, crop_w: 100, crop_h: 100) Possible encode options: * **lossless** (int) - Lossless encoding (0=lossy(default), 1=lossless) * **quality** (float) - between 0 (smallest file) and 100 (biggest) * **method** (int) - quality/speed trade-off (0=fast, 6=slower-better) * **target\_size** (int) - if non-zero, set the desired target size in bytes. Takes precedence over the 'compression' parameter * **target\_PSNR** (float) - if non-zero, specifies the minimal distortion to try to achieve. Takes precedence over target\_size * **segments** (int) - maximum number of segments to use, in [1..4] * **sns_strength** (int) - Spatial Noise Shaping. 0=off, 100=maximum * **filter\_strength** (int) - range: [0 = off .. 100 = strongest] * **filter\_sharpness** (int) - range: [0 = off .. 7 = least sharp] * **filter\_type** (int) - filtering type: 0 = simple, 1 = strong (only used if filter\_strength > 0 or autofilter > 0) * **autofilter** (int) - Auto adjust filter's strength [0 = off, 1 = on] * **alpha\_compression** (int) - Algorithm for encoding the alpha plane (0 = none, 1 = compressed with WebP lossless). Default is 1 * **alpha\_filtering** (int) - Predictive filtering method for alpha plane. 0: none, 1: fast, 2: best. Default if 1 * **alpha\_quality** (int) - Between 0 (smallest size) and 100 (lossless). Default is 100 * **pass** (int) - number of entropy-analysis passes (in [1..10]) * **show\_compressed** (int) - if true, export the compressed picture back. In-loop filtering is not applied * **preprocessing** (int) - preprocessing filter (0=none, 1=segment-smooth) * **partitions** (int) - log2(number of token partitions) in [0..3]. Default is set to 0 for easier progressive decoding * **partition\_limit** (int) - quality degradation allowed to fit the 512k limit on prediction modes coding (0: no degradation, 100: maximum possible degradation) * **width** (int), **height** (int) - Input size (width x height) for YUV * **crop\_x** (int), **crop\_y** (int), **crop\_w** (int), **crop\_h** (int) - crop picture with the given rectangle * **resize\_w** (int), **resize\_h** (int) - resize picture (after any cropping) ### Decode WebP image Decode webp image (default format is png): filename = File.expand_path(File.join(File.dirname(__FILE__), "spec/factories/4.webp")) out_filename = File.expand_path(File.join(File.dirname(__FILE__), "tmp/4.png")) WebP.decode(filename, out_filename) Decode webp image to pam, ppm, pgm, bmp, tiff or yuv format of image: filename = File.expand_path(File.join(File.dirname(__FILE__), "spec/factories/4.webp")) out_filename = File.expand_path(File.join(File.dirname(__FILE__), "tmp/4.png")) WebP.decode(filename, out_filename, output_format: :pam) WebP.decode(filename, out_filename, output_format: :ppm) WebP.decode(filename, out_filename, output_format: :pgm) WebP.decode(filename, out_filename, output_format: :bmp) WebP.decode(filename, out_filename, output_format: :tiff) WebP.decode(filename, out_filename, output_format: :yuv) Decode webp image with options: WebP.encode(filename, out_filename, resize_w: 100, resize_h: 200) WebP.encode(filename, out_filename, crop_x: 0, cropt_y: 0, crop_w: 100, crop_h: 100) Possible decode options: * **bypass\_filtering** (bool) - disable in-loop filtering * **no\_fancy\_upsampling** (bool) - don't use the fancy YUV420 upscaler * **use\_threads** (bool) - use multi-threading * **crop\_x** (int), **crop\_y** (int), **crop\_w** (int), **crop\_h** (int) - crop picture with the given rectangle * **resize\_w** (int), **resize\_h** (int) - resize picture (after any cropping) ## Contributing 1.
