Prima::image-load - Using image subsystem

Details on image subsystem - image loading, saving, and codec managements

Simplest case, loading a single image would look like:

        my $x = Prima::Image-> load( 'filename.duf');
        die "$@" unless $x;

Image functions can work being either invoked from package, or from existing Prima::Image object, in latter case the caller object itself is changing. The code above could be also written as

        my $x = Prima::Image-> create;
        die "$@" unless $x-> load( 'filename.duf');

In both cases $x contains image data upon success. Error is returned into $@ variable ( see perldoc perlvar for more info).

"Prima::Image" can also load image by reading from a stream:

        open FILE, 'a.jpeg' or die "Cannot open:$!";
        binmode FILE;
        my $x = Prima::Image-> load( \*FILE);
        die "$@" unless $x;

Multiframe load call can be also issued in two ways:

        my @x = Prima::Image-> load( 'filename.duf', loadAll => 1);
        die "$@" unless $x[-1];

        my $x = Prima::Image-> create;
        my @x = $x-> load( 'filename.duf', loadAll => 1);
        die "$@" unless $x[-1];

In second case, the content of the first frame comes to $x and $x[0]. Sufficient check for error is whether last item of a returned array is defined. This check works also if an empty array is returned. Only this last item can be an undefined value, others are guaranteed to be valid objects.

Multiframe syntax is expressed in a set of extra hash keys. These keys are:

loadAll
Request for loading all frames that can be read from a file. Example:

        loadAll => 1
    
index
If present, returns a single frame with index given. Example:

        index => 8
    
map
Contains an anonymous array of frame indices to load. Valid indices are above zero, negative ones can't be counted in a way perl array indices are. Example:

         map => [0, 10, 15..20]
    

By default Prima loads image data and palette only. For any other information that can be loaded, anonymous hash 'extras' can be defined. To notify a codec that this extra information is desired, loadExtras boolean value is used. Example:

        my $x = Prima::Image-> load( $f, loadExtras => 1);
        die "$@" unless $x;
        for ( keys %{$x-> {extras}}) {
           print " $_ : $x->{extras}->{$_}\n";
        }

The code above loads and prints extra information read from a file. Typical output, for example, from a gif codec based on libgif would look like:

    codecID : 1
    transparentColorIndex : 1
    comment : created by GIMP
    frames : 18

'codecID' is a Prima-defined extra field, which is an index of the codec which have loaded the file. This field's value is useful for explicit indication of codec on the save request.

'frames' is also a Prima-defined extra field, with integer value set to a number of frames in the image. It might be set to -1, signaling that codec is incapable of quick reading of the frame count. If, however, it is necessary to get actual frame count, a 'wantFrames' profile boolean value should be set to 1 - then frames is guaranteed to be set to a 0 or positive value, but the request may take longer time, especially on a large file with sequential access. Real life example is a gif file with more than thousand frames. 'wantFrames' is useful in null load requests.

The parameters that are accepted by load, are divided into several categories - first, those that apply to all loading process and those who apply only to a particular frame. Those who are defined by Prima, are enumerated above - loadExtras, loadAll etc. Only loadExtras, noImageData, noIncomplete and iconUnmask are applicable to a frame, other govern the loading process. A codec may as well define its own parameters, however it is not possible to tell what parameter belongs to what group - this information is to be found in codec documentation;

The parameters that applicable to any frame, can be specified separately to every desirable frame in single call. For that purpose, parameter 'profiles' is defined. 'profiles' is expected to be an anonymous array of hashes, each hash where corresponds to a request number. Example:

        $x-> load( $f, loadAll => 1, profiles => [
             {loadExtras => 0},
             {loadExtras => 1},
        ]);

First hash there applies to frame index 0, second - to frame index 1. Note that in code

        $x-> load( $f,
           map => [ 5, 10],
           profiles => [
             {loadExtras => 0},
             {loadExtras => 1},
        ]);

first hash applies to frame index 5, and second - to frame index 10.

If it is desired to peek into image, reading type and dimensions only, one should set 'noImageData' boolean value to 1. Using 'noImageData', empty objects with read type are returned, and with extras 'width' and 'height' set to image dimensions. Example:

        $x-> load( $f, noImageData => 1);
        die "$@" unless $x;
        print $x-> {extras}-> {width} , 'x' , $x-> {extras}-> {height}, 'x',
           $x-> type & im::BPP, "\n";

Some information about image can be loaded even without frame loading - if the codec provides such a functionality. This is the only request that cannot be issued on a package:

        $x-> load( $f, map => [], loadExtras => 1);

Since no frames are required to load, an empty array is returned upon success and an array with one undefined value on failure.

If Prima needs to create a storage object, it is by default Prima::Image, or a class name of an caller object, or a package the request was issued on. This behavior can be altered using parameter 'className', which defines the class to be used for the frame.

        my @x = Prima::Image-> load( $f,
            map => [ 1..3],
            className => 'Prima::Icon',
            profiles => [
                {},
                { className => 'Prima::Image' },
                {}
            ],

In this example @x will be ( Icon, Image, Icon) upon success.

When loading to an Icon object, the default toolkit action is to build the transparency mask based on image data. When it is not the desired behavior, e.g., there is no explicit knowledge of image, but the image may or may not contain transparency information, "iconUnmask" boolean option can be used. When set to a "true" value, and the object is "Prima::Icon" descendant, "Prima::Icon::autoMasking" is set to "am::None" prior to the file loading. By default this options is turned off.

Some codecs (PNG,TIFF,JPEG) can notify the caller as they read image data. For this purpose, "Prima::Image" has two events, "onHeaderReady" and "onDataReady". If either (or both) are present on image object that is issuing load call, and the codec supports progressive loading, these events are called. "onHeaderReady" is called when image header data is acquired, and empty image with the dimensions and pixel type is allocated. "onDataReady" is called whenever a part of image is ready and is loaded in the memory of the object; the position and dimensions of the loaded area is reported also. The format of the events is:

    onHeaderReady $OBJECT
    onDataReady   $OBJECT, $X, $Y, $WIDTH, $HEIGHT

"onHeaderReady" is called only once, but "onDataReady" is called as soon as new image data is available. To reduce frequency of these calls, that otherwise would be issued on every scanline loaded, "load" has parameter "eventDelay", a number of seconds, which limits event rate. The default "eventDelay" is 0.1 .

The handling on "onDataReady" must be performed with care. First, the image must be accessed read-only, which means no transformations with image size and type are allowed. Currently there is no protection for such actions ( because codec must perform these ), so a crash will most surely issue. Second, loading and saving of images is not in general reentrant, and although some codecs are reentrant, loading and saving images inside image events is not recommended.

There are two techniques to display partial image as it loads. All of these share overloading of "onHeaderReady" and "onDataReady". The simpler is to call "put_image" from inside "onDataReady":

        $i = Prima::Image-> new(
                onDataReady => sub {
                        $progress_widget-> put_image( 0, 0, $i);
                },
        );

but that will most probably loads heavily underlying OS-dependent conversion of image data to native display bitmap data. A more smarter, but more complex solution is to copy loaded (and only loaded) bits to a preexisting device bitmap:

        $i = Prima::Image-> new(
                onHeaderReady => sub {
                        $bitmap = Prima::DeviceBitmap-> new(
                                width    => $i-> width,
                                height   => $i-> height,
                        ));
                },
                onDataReady => sub {
                        my ( $i, $x, $y, $w, $h) = @_;
                        $bitmap-> put_image( $x, $y, $i-> extract( $x, $y, $w, $h));
                },
        );

The latter technique is used by "Prima::ImageViewer" when it is setup to monitor image loading progress. See "watch_load_progress" in Prima::ImageViewer for details.

By default, codecs are not specified whether they would fail on premature end of file or omit the error and return truncated image. "noIncomplete" boolean flag tells that a codec must always fail if the image cannot be red in full. It is off by default. If indeed the codec detected that the file was incomplete, it sets "truncated" error string in the "extras" profile, if "loadExtras" was requested.

Typical saving code will be:

   die "$@" unless $x-> save( 'filename.duf');

Upon a single-frame invocation save returns 1 upon success an 0 on failure. Save requests also can be performed with package syntax:

   die "$@" unless Prima::Image-> save( 'filename.duf',
       images => [ $x]);

Saving to a stream requires explicit "codecID" to be supplied. When an image is loaded with "loadExtras", this field is always present on the image object, and is an integer that selects image encoding format.

   my @png_id =
      map  { $_-> {codecID} }
      grep { $_-> {fileShortType} =~ /^png$/i }
      @{ Prima::Image-> codecs };
   die "No png codec installed" unless @png_id;

   open FILE, "> a.png" or die "Cannot save:$!";
   binmode FILE;
   $image-> save( \*FILE, codecID => $png_id[0])
      or die "Cannot save:$@";

In multiframe invocation save returns number of successfully saved frames. File is erased though, if error occurred, even after some successfully written frames.

    die "$@" if scalar(@images) > Prima::Image-> save( $f,
       images => \@images);

All information, that is found in object hash reference 'extras', is assumed to be saved as an extra information. It is a codec's own business how it reacts on invalid and/or inacceptable information - but typical behavior is that keys that were not recognized by the codec just get ignored, and invalid values raise an error.

       $x-> {extras}-> {comments} = 'Created by Prima';
       $x-> save( $f);

Extras field 'codecID', the same one that is defined after load requests, selects explicitly a codec for an image to handle. If the codec selected is incapable of saving an error is returned. Selecting a codec is only possible with the object-driven syntax, and this information is never extracted from objects but passed to 'images' array instead.

       $x-> {extras}-> {codecID} = 1;
       $x-> save( $f);

Actual correspondence between codecs and their indices is described latter.

NB - if codecID is not given, codec is selected by the file extension.

Codecs usually are incapable of saving images in all formats, so Prima either converts an image to an appropriate format or signals an error. This behavior is governed by profile key 'autoConvert', which is 1 by default. 'autoConvert' can be present in image 'extras' structures. With autoConvert set it is guaranteed that image will be saved, but original image information may be lost. With autoConvert unset, no information will be lost, but Prima may signal an error. Therefore general-purpose save routines should be planned carefully. As an example the "Prima::Dialog::ImageDialog::SaveImageDialog" code might be useful.

When the conversion takes place, Image property 'conversion' is used for selection of an error distribution algorithm, if down-sampling is required.

This functionality is under design, but the common outlines are already set. Profile key 'append' ( 0 by default ) triggers this behavior - if it is set, then an append attempt is made.

Prima provides single function, Prima::Image-> codecs, which returns an anonymous array of hashes, where every hash entry corresponds to a registered codec. 'codecID' parameter on load and save requests is actually an index in this array. Indexes for a codecs registered once never change, so it is safe to manipulate these numbers within single program run.

Codec information that is contained in these hashes is divided into following parameters:

codecID
Unique integer value for a codec, same as index of the codec entry in results of "Prima::Image->codecs";
name
codec full name, string
vendor
codec vendor, string
versionMajor and versionMinor
usually underlying library versions, integers
fileExtensions
array of strings, with file extensions that are typical to a codec. example: ['tif', 'tiff']
fileType
Description of a type of a file, that codec is designed to work with. String.
fileShortType
Short description of a type of a file, that codec is designed to work with. ( short means 3-4 characters ). String.
featuresSupported
Array of strings, with some features description that a codec supports - usually codecs implement only a part of file format specification, so it is always interesting to know, what part it is.
module and package
Specify a perl module, usually inside Prima/Image directory into Prima distribution, and a package inside the module. The package contains some specific functions for work with codec-specific parameters. Current implementation defines only ::save_dialog() function, that returns a dialog that allows to change these parameters. See "Prima::Dialog::ImageDialog::SaveImageDialog" for details. Strings, undefined if empty.
canLoad
1 if a codec can load images, 0 if not
canLoadStream
1 if a codec can load images from streams, 0 otherwise
canLoadMultiple
1 if a codec can handle multiframe load requests and load frames with index more than zero. 0 if not.
canSave
1 if a codec can save images, 0 if not.
canSaveStream
1 if a codec can save images to streams, 0 otherwise
canSaveMultiple
Set if a codec can save more that one frame
canAppend
Set if a codec can append frames to an exising file
types
Array of integers - each is a combination of im:: flags, an image type, which a codec is capable of saving. First type in list is a default one; if image type that to be saved is not in that list, the image will be converted to this default type.
loadInput
Hash, where keys are those that are accepted by Prima::Image-> load, and values are default values for these keys.
loadOutput
Array of strings, each of those is a name of extra information entry in 'extras' hash.
saveInput
Hash, where keys are those that are accepted by Prima::Image-> save, and values are default values for these keys.
mime
array of strings, with file extensions that are typical to a codec. example: ['image/xbm', 'image/x-bitmap']

This section describes parameters accepted and data returned by "Prima::Image::load"

Loading parameters
blending BOOLEAN = 1
Affects how to treat alpha channel bits, if any.

If set, mixes the alpha channel with background color in case if loading to an image, or premultiplies color bits (either data or palette) with alpha, if loading to icon. Note that saving back the object will result in different image, but the object is ready to be displayed immediately.

If unset, color and eventual alpha bits, if loaded to an icon, will not be affected in any way. Note that saving back the object will result in the same image, but the object is not ready to be displayed immediately. See also: "premultiply_alpha" in Prima::Image.

className STRING
When loading more than one image, this string is used to create instances of image containers. By default the calling class is used (i.e. "Prima::Image" or "Prima::Icon").
eventDelay INT
Specifies "onDataReady" event granularity in microseconds, if image codec is capable of triggering this event.

Default: 100

iconUnmask BOOL
If set, "Prima::Icon::autoMasking" is set to "am::None" prior to the file loading.

Default: false. Only actual for "Prima::Icon" loading.

index INT
When loading from a multiframe file, selects the frame index to load.

Default: 0

map [INT]
When loading from a multiframe file, selects set of frame indexes to load.

Default: undef

loadExtras BOOL
If set, all available extra information will be stored in "{extras}" hash on the loaded object.

Default: false

loadAll BOOL
When loading from a multiframe file, selects that all frames are to be loaded

Default: false

noImageData BOOL
When set, neither image data is not loaded, nor image dimensions are changed (newly created images have size of 1x1). Instead, "{extras}" contains "width" and "height" integers.

Default: false

noIncomplete BOOL
Affects the action when image is incomplete, truncated, etc. If set, signals an error. Otherwise no error is signalled and whatever data could be recovered from the image are returned, and "truncated" flag is set.

Default: false

profiles [HASH]
Array of hashes passed down to each frame in multiframe loads. Each frame load request will be passed an individual hash, a result of hash join of all profiles passed to "Image::load" and the nth hash in the array.
wantFrames BOOL
Affects how the number of frames in a file is reported in "frames" flag. If set, always scans the file for exact number. Otherwise it is up to the codec to do that.

Default: false

See also: frames.

Load output

codecID INT
Indicates the internal codec ID used to load the image. Can be used for "Image::save".
frames INT
If set to a positive integer, indicates number of frames in a file. Otherwise signals that there are frames, but codec needs an expensive scan to calculate the frames (and "wantFrames" set).
height INT
When "noImageData" is in action, contains image height.
truncated BOOL
When "noIncomplete" is in action, is set if image was truncated. The value is the error string.
width INT
When "noImageData" is in action, contains image width.

Saving parameters

autoConvert BOOL
Affects the action when image cannot be stored in file format in its existing pixel format. If set, the system tries to convert image into a pixel format understood by the selected codec. Fails otherwise.

Default: true

codecID INT
Overrides codec selection based on filename extension.

Default: undef

BMP, the bitmap codec is not depended on external libraries and is always available.
BitDepth INT

OS2 BOOL
Set when loading OS/2 bitmap
XResolution, YResolution INT

X11, the X Consortium data file codec may depend on external libraries, but is implement internally if these are not found, and is thus always available.
hotSpotX, hotSpotY INT
Contains pointer hotspot coordinates, if any

extensions HASH
Set of xpm-specific extension strings. Cannot be used for saving.
hintsComment, colorsComment, pixelsComment STRING
Contains comments to different sections
hotSpotX, hotSpotY INT
Contains pointer hotspot coordinates
transparentColors [COLOR]
Array or transparent colors. Cannot be used for saving.

Load parameteres
exifTransform none|auto|wipe
If set to "auto" or "wipe", tries to detect whether there is are any exif tags hinting that the image has to be rotated and/or mirrored. If found, applies the transformation accordingly.

When set to "wipe", in addition to that, removes the exif tags so that subsequent image save won't result in transformed images with exifs tags still present.

This parameter requires "loadExtras" flag set, because exif tags are stored in extra JPEG data.

Save input

WebP requires all images to have same dimensions. Also, saving the webp loading result might fail because loaded frames might only contains parts to be superimposed on each other, while saving requires always full frames. To convert webp loaded frames to something that can be saved later more-or-less identically, use "Prima::Image::webp::animation_to_frames" converter:

   use Prima qw(Image::webp);
   my @i = Prima::Icon->load('source.webp', loadAll => 1, loadExtras => 1) or die $@;
   @i = Prima::Image::webp::animation_to_frames(@i);
   die $@ if @i != Prima::Icon->save('target.webp', images => \@i);
background $ARGB_color
Integer constant encoded as ARGB, hints the background to be used
compression lossless (default)|lossy|mixed
delay $milliseconds
filter_strength INTEGER
Setting between 0 and 100, 0 means off.
kmax INTEGER
Min distance between key frames. Default is 9 for lossless compression, and 3 for lossy
kmin INTEGER
Max distance between key frames. Default is 17 for lossless compression, and 5 for lossy
loopCount 0
How many times the animation sequence should run, or 0 for forever.
method INTEGER
Compression method vs size, 0 (fast) to 6 (slow)
minimize_size BOOLEAN
Minimize output size (off by default)
quality INTEGER
Quality factor (0:small..100:big)
thread_level BOOLEAN
Use multi-threading if available (off by default)
