libvips

We have hosted the application libvips in order to run this application in our online workstations with Wine or directly.

Quick description about libvips:

libvips is a demand-driven, horizontally threaded image processing library. Compared to similar libraries, libvips runs quickly and uses little memory. libvips is licensed under the LGPL 2.1+. It has around 300 operations covering arithmetic, histograms, convolution, morphological operations, frequency filtering, colour, resampling, statistics and others. It supports a large range of numeric types, from 8-bit int to 128-bit complex. Images can have any number of bands. It supports a good range of image formats, including JPEG, JPEG2000, JPEG-XL, TIFF, PNG, WebP, HEIC, AVIF, FITS, Matlab, OpenEXR, PDF, SVG, HDR, PPM / PGM / PFM, CSV, GIF, Analyze, NIfTI, DeepZoom, and OpenSlide. It can also load images via ImageMagick or GraphicsMagick, letting it work with formats like DICOM. It comes with bindings for C, C++, and the command-line. Full bindings are available for Ruby, Python, PHP, C# / .NET, Go, and Lua.

Features:

• If available, libvips adds support for EXIF metadata in JPEG files
• Usual SVG loader
• Vips will try to load SVGs via imagemagick instead
• If PDFium is not detected, libvips will look for poppler-glib instead
• There are packages for most Unix-like operating systems, including macOS. Check your package manager
• There are binaries for Windows in releases

Programming Language: C.
