HEIC image support #117

Open batusai513 opened 4 years ago

batusai513 commented 4 years ago

Hi, I've been using this library for a while and it works really great, one thing that came up recently is to give HEIC image support, but when I try to load them, it cannot be done, it shows an error, it would be possible to add support for those images with this library?

Thanks.

Thanks for your suggestion @batusai513.

I've marked this as a feature request, but it's likely that I will only add this if the HEIC format (HEIF) is natively supported by browsers.

There is the following library that supports converting HEIC images to JPEG/PNG/GIF on the client-side: https://github.com/alexcorvi/heic2any Unfortunately the distribution file for heic2any is more than a Megabyte in size.

You may be interested in https://github.com/exif-heic-js/exif-heic-js for reading HEIC EXIF metadata. It is a relatively small library.

Thanks for sharing @edent. I think it's worth considering if reading HEIC EXIF metadata alone is worth it, but so far I still prefer to see if the format will get broad browser support first.
