Why riv? This project was born out of a frustration with image viewers on Mac. Generally the options are:-
Riv on the other hand runs from the command line, and accepts a path with globs in quotes (with globstar ** for recursive search). For example:-
$ riv "**/*.jpg"
Start riv with
$ riv.
As an optional second parameter you can add a path with globs.
$ riv "**/*.png"
Without any second parameter, riv will look for all images in the current directory.
Set a destination folder for moving files with the f flag. The folder will be created if it doesn't exist.
$ riv -f ~/saved_images
Set a sorting order with the s or --sort flag, case insensitive.
$ riv -s alphabetical "**/*.png"

| i/o | Up/Down | Zoom in/out |
| r/R | Rotate image clockwise/counterclockwise | |
| H, J, K, L | Shift + Up/Down/Left/Right | Pan left/down/up/right |
| h | Flip image horizontally | |
| v | Flip image vertically | |
| b/w | PageDown/PageUp | Backward/Forward 10% of images |
| g/G | Home/End | First/Last Image (55G jumps to the 55th image) |
| m | Move image to destination folder (default ./keep) | |
| c | Copy image to destination folder (default ./keep) | |
| d | Delete | Move image to OS specific trash location |
| D | Shift + Delete | Delete image from its location |
| t | Toggle information bar | |
| f | F11 | Toggle fullscreen mode |
| ? | Toggle help box | |
| z | Left Click | Toggle actual size vs scaled image |
| Z | Center image | |
| . (period) | Repeat last action |
| Short | Long | Argument | Action |
|---|---|---|---|
| ng | newglob | Required | The new glob/directory/file |
| ? | help | None | Toggle help box |
| q | quit | None | Quit |
| sort | Optional | The method to sort by | |
| df | destfolder | Required | New folder to move/copy images to |
| m | max | Required | New maximum number of files to view |
| Option | Description |
|---|---|
| Alphabetical | Alphabetically by filename only |
| Date | By date last modified, most recent first |
| Size | By size, largest first |
| DepthFirst | [Default] Ordered by farthest depth from current directory first |
| BreadthFirst | Ordered by farthest depth from current directory last |
Reverse the sorting order with r or --reverse flag

Set the maximum number of images to be displayed m or --max flag. 0 means infinitely many images.
$ riv -m 0 **/*.png
These instructions will get you a copy of the project up and running on your local machine for development and testing purposes.
You will need to install Rust and the SDL2 libraries to work with this project.
Go here for instructions on installing rust. Go here for instructions on installing SDL2.
You will also need sdl2_image and sdl2_ttf
The trash program is required for sending images to the trash.
brew install trash sdl sdl2_image sdl2_ttf
sudo pacman -S sdl2 sdl2_image sdl2_ttf
sudo apt-get install libsdl2-dev libsdl2-image-dev libsdl2-ttf-dev
Hopefully you can figure it out from the above instructions. If you do, please make a PR for this README with the specific instructions.
After that you can build with:
cargo build
I aim for this project to be a great place for people just starting with Rust and just starting with Open Source to get involved. I'm pretty green with Rust myself, so any code review, refactorings to idiomatic style, bug fixes and feature PRs are very much appreciated. I have purposely left some features unimplemented before open sourcing with the idea that someone can pick them up as a good first contribution. So please, join in. No developer is too green for this project.
