⚠️ NOTICE!!! ⚠️
The image viewer (CLI and TUI) has been moved to termvisage.
A terminal emulator with any of the following:
Plans to support a wider variety of terminal emulators are in motion (see Planned Features).
The latest stable version can be installed from PyPI with:
pip install term-image
The development version can be installed with:
pip install git+https://github.com/AnonymouX47/term-image.git
See here for a list of tested terminal emulators.
If you've tested this library on any other terminal emulator that meets the requirements for any of the render styles, please mention the name (and version) in a new thread under this discussion.
Also, if you have any issue with terminal support, you may report or check information about it in the discussion linked above.
PIL.Image.open()
)Check out this image viewer based on this library.
Initialize with a file path:
from term_image.image import from_file
image = from_file("path/to/image.png")
Initialize with a URL:
from term_image.image import from_url
image = from_url("https://www.example.com/image.png")
Initialize with a PIL (Pillow) image instance:
from PIL import Image
from term_image.image import AutoImage
img = Image.open("path/to/image.png")
image = AutoImage(img)
There are two basic ways to draw an image to the terminal screen:
Using the draw()
method:
image.draw()
NOTE: draw()
has various parameters for render formatting.
Using print()
with an image render output:
print(image) # without formatting
# OR
print(f"{image:>200.^100#ffffff}") # with formatting
For animated images, only the former animates the output, the latter only draws the current frame.
See the tutorial for a more detailed introduction.
🚧 Under Construction - There will most likely be incompatible changes between minor versions of version zero!
If you want to use this library in a project while it's still on version zero, ensure you pin the dependency to a specific minor version e.g >=0.4,<0.5
.
See the docs for the User Guide and API Reference.
