Display images in the terminal with ease.
viuer
is a Rust library that makes it easy to show images in the
terminal. It has a straightforward interface and is configured
through a single struct. The default printing method is through
lower half blocks (▄ or \u2585). However some custom graphics
protocols are supported. They result in full resolution images
being displayed in specific environments:
Add this to Cargo.toml
:
[dependencies]
viuer = "0.6"
For a demo of the library's usage and example screenshots, see viu
.
// src/main.rs
use viuer::{print_from_file, Config};
fn main() {
let conf = Config {
// set offset
x: 20,
y: 4,
// set dimensions
width: Some(80),
height: Some(25),
..Default::default()
};
// starting from row 4 and column 20,
// display `img.jpg` with dimensions 80x25 (in terminal cells)
// note that the actual resolution in the terminal will be 80x50
print_from_file("img.jpg", &conf).expect("Image printing failed.");
}
Or if you have a DynamicImage, you can use it directly:
// ..Config setup
let img = image::DynamicImage::ImageRgba8(image::RgbaImage::new(20, 10));
viuer::print(&img, &conf).expect("Image printing failed.");
