Overview ▾

Package gif implements a GIF image decoder and encoder.

The GIF specification is at http://www.w3.org/Graphics/GIF/spec-gif89a.txt.

Constants

Disposal Methods.

const (
    DisposalNone       = 0x01
    DisposalBackground = 0x02
    DisposalPrevious   = 0x03
)

func Decode

func Decode(r io.Reader) (image.Image, error)

Decode reads a GIF image from r and returns the first embedded image as an image.Image.

func DecodeConfig

func DecodeConfig(r io.Reader) (image.Config, error)

DecodeConfig returns the global color model and dimensions of a GIF image without decoding the entire image.

func Encode

func Encode(w io.Writer, m image.Image, o *Options) error

Encode writes the Image m to w in GIF format.

func EncodeAll

func EncodeAll(w io.Writer, g *GIF) error

EncodeAll writes the images in g to w in GIF format with the given loop count and delay between frames.

type GIF

GIF represents the possibly multiple images stored in a GIF file.

type GIF struct {
    Image     []*image.Paletted // The successive images.
    Delay     []int             // The successive delay times, one per frame, in 100ths of a second.
    LoopCount int               // The loop count.
    // Disposal is the successive disposal methods, one per frame. For
    // backwards compatibility, a nil Disposal is valid to pass to EncodeAll,
    // and implies that each frame's disposal method is 0 (no disposal
    // specified).
    Disposal []byte
    // Config is the global color table (palette), width and height. A nil or
    // empty-color.Palette Config.ColorModel means that each frame has its own
    // color table and there is no global color table. Each frame's bounds must
    // be within the rectangle defined by the two points (0, 0) and
    // (Config.Width, Config.Height).
    //
    // For backwards compatibility, a zero-valued Config is valid to pass to
    // EncodeAll, and implies that the overall GIF's width and height equals
    // the first frame's bounds' Rectangle.Max point.
    Config image.Config
    // BackgroundIndex is the background index in the global color table, for
    // use with the DisposalBackground disposal method.
    BackgroundIndex byte
}

func DecodeAll

func DecodeAll(r io.Reader) (*GIF, error)

DecodeAll reads a GIF image from r and returns the sequential frames and timing information.

type Options

Options are the encoding parameters.

type Options struct {
    // NumColors is the maximum number of colors used in the image.
    // It ranges from 1 to 256.
    NumColors int

    // Quantizer is used to produce a palette with size NumColors.
    // palette.Plan9 is used in place of a nil Quantizer.
    Quantizer draw.Quantizer

    // Drawer is used to convert the source image to the desired palette.
    // draw.FloydSteinberg is used in place of a nil Drawer.
    Drawer draw.Drawer
