image = Vips::Image.new_from_array [1, 2, 3]

or

image = Vips::Image.new_from_array [
    [-1, -1, -1],
    [-1, 16, -1],
    [-1, -1, -1]], 8

for a simple sharpening mask.

Parameters:

    the pixel data as an array of numbers

  • scale (Real) (defaults to: 1)

    the convolution scale

  • offset (Real) (defaults to: 0)

    the convolution offset

.new_from_buffer(data, option_string, **opts) ⇒ Image

Create a new Vips::Image for an image encoded, in a format such as JPEG, in a binary string. Load options may be passed as strings or appended as a hash. For example:

image = Vips::Image.new_from_buffer memory_buffer, "shrink=2"

or alternatively:

image = Vips::Image.new_from_buffer memory_buffer, "", shrink: 2

The options available depend on the file format. Try something like:

$ vips jpegload_buffer

at the command-line to see the available options. Not all loaders support load from buffer, but at least JPEG, PNG and TIFF images will work.

Loading is fast: only enough of the image is loaded to be able to fill out the header. Pixels will only be decompressed when they are needed.

Parameters:

  • data (String)

    the data to load from

  • option_string (String)

    load options as a string

  • opts (Hash)

    set of options

Options Hash (**opts):

  • :disc (Boolean) — default: true

    Open large images via a temporary disc file

  • :access (Vips::Access) — default: :random

    Access mode for file

Returns:

  • (Image)

    the loaded image

Raises:

  raise Vips::Error if loader == nil

  Vips::Operation.call loader, [data], opts, option_string
end

.new_from_file(name, **opts) ⇒ Image

Return a new Vips::Image for a file on disc. This method can load images in any format supported by vips. The filename can include load options, for example:

image = Vips::Image.new_from_file "fred.jpg[shrink=2]"

You can also supply options as a hash, for example:

image = Vips::Image.new_from_file "fred.jpg", shrink: 2

The full set of options available depend upon the load operation that will be executed. Try something like:

$ vips jpegload

at the command-line to see a summary of the available options for the JPEG loader.

Loading is fast: only enough of the image is loaded to be able to fill out the header. Pixels will only be decompressed when they are needed.

Parameters:

  • name (String)

    the filename to load from

  • opts (Hash)

    set of options

Options Hash (**opts):

  • :disc (Boolean) — default: true

    Open large images via a temporary disc file

  • :access (Vips::Access) — default: :random

    Access mode for file

Returns:

  • (Image)

    the loaded image
