PSDNative

A gem that includes multiple mixins that speed up PSD.rb by delegating certain parts of the library to native C code. This library allows for PSD.rb to function as a pure Ruby library, while allowing for optional native code speed improvements. It overwrites specific methods within PSD.rb transparently, so you can use PSD.rb like normal.

Currently, PSDNative replaces these sections of PSD.rb with native code:

RGB processing
CMYK processing
Greyscale processing
RLE decoding
Some color conversions
Color composition
Clipping masks

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'psd_native'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install psd_native

Usage

Simply require psd_native instead of psd, and you're good to go.

require 'psd_native'

psd = PSD.new("path/to/file.psd")
psd.parse!
