Here you can find documentation on how to write your own plugin to allow
|
|
ImageIO to access a new backend. Plugins are quite object oriented, and
|
|
the relevant classes and their interaction are documented here:
|
|
|
|
.. currentmodule:: imageio
|
|
|
|
.. autosummary::
|
|
:toctree: ../_autosummary
|
|
:template: better_class.rst
|
|
|
|
imageio.core.Format
|
|
imageio.core.Request
|
|
|
|
.. note::
|
|
You can always check existing plugins if you want to see examples.
|
|
|
|
What methods to implement
|
|
-------------------------
|
|
|
|
To implement a new plugin, create a new class that inherits from
|
|
:class:`imageio.core.Format`. and implement the following functions:
|
|
|
|
.. autosummary::
|
|
:toctree: ../_autosummary
|
|
|
|
imageio.core.Format.__init__
|
|
imageio.core.Format._can_read
|
|
imageio.core.Format._can_write
|
|
|
|
Further, each format contains up to two nested classes; one for reading and
|
|
one for writing. To support reading and/or writing, the respective classes
|
|
need to be defined.
|
|
|
|
For reading, create a nested class that inherits from
|
|
``imageio.core.Format.Reader`` and that implements the following functions:
|
|
|
|
* Implement ``_open(**kwargs)`` to initialize the reader. Deal with the
|
|
user-provided keyword arguments here.
|
|
* Implement ``_close()`` to clean up.
|
|
* Implement ``_get_length()`` to provide a suitable length based on what
|
|
the user expects. Can be ``inf`` for streaming data.
|
|
* Implement ``_get_data(index)`` to return an array and a meta-data dict.
|
|
* Implement ``_get_meta_data(index)`` to return a meta-data dict. If index
|
|
is None, it should return the 'global' meta-data.
|
|
|
|
For writing, create a nested class that inherits from
|
|
``imageio.core.Format.Writer`` and implement the following functions:
|
|
|
|
* Implement ``_open(**kwargs)`` to initialize the writer. Deal with the
|
|
user-provided keyword arguments here.
|
|
* Implement ``_close()`` to clean up.
|
|
* Implement ``_append_data(im, meta)`` to add data (and meta-data).
|
|
* Implement ``_set_meta_data(meta)`` to set the global meta-data.
