Installation

Arch Linux


The package is available on AUR (``yoga-image-optimizer``):

* https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/yoga-image-optimizer

Flatpak (Linux)

A Flatpak package is available on Flathub. This is currently the simplest way to install YOGA Image Optimizer on all major Linux distributions:

https://flathub.org/apps/details/org.flozz.yoga-image-optimizer

Linux (PyPI)


You must install the dependencies on your system first. It can be done via the following command on Debian and Ubuntu::

    sudo apt install git build-essential python3 python3-dev python3-pip libgirepository1.0-dev libcairo2-dev pkg-config gir1.2-gtk-3.0

Then install YOGA Image Optimizer with pip::

    sudo pip3 install yoga-image-optimizer

**NOTE:** Installing from PyPI will not install ``.desktop`` file and manual page; you will not be able to run the software from your graphical app menu (GNOME Shell etc.).

Linux (source)

You must install the dependencies on your system first. It can be done via the following command on Debian and Ubuntu::

sudo apt install git build-essential python3 python3-dev python3-pip libgirepository1.0-dev libcairo2-dev pkg-config gir1.2-gtk-3.0

Then clone this repository and navigate to it::

git clone https://github.com/flozz/yoga-image-optimizer.git
cd yoga-image-optimizer

Then install YOGA Image Optimizer using pip::

sudo pip3 install .

Finally, you can install the .desktop file, icons and manual page using the following command::

sudo ./linuxpkg/copy-data.sh /usr

Windows


Download either the portable .zip version or the Windows installer from the releases page:

* https://github.com/flozz/yoga-image-optimizer/releases

Usage
-----

Just type the following command to run YOGA Image Optimizer::

    yoga-image-optimizer

You can also give some image files to open::

    yoga-image-optimizer  image1.png  image2.jpeg

**NOTE:** If you installed YOGA Image Optimizer from Flathub, you will have to run the following command instead::

    flatpak run org.flozz.yoga-image-optimizer  image1.png  image2.jpeg

Bugs


Please `open an issue <https://github.com/flozz/yoga-image-optimizer/issues>`_ on GitHub with as much information as possible if you found a bug:

* Your operating system / Linux distribution (and its version)
* How you installed the software
* All the logs and message outputted by the software
* etc.

Pull requests

Please consider filing a bug <https://github.com/flozz/yoga-image-optimizer/issues>_ before starting to work on a new feature; it will allow us to discuss the best way to do it. It is obviously unnecessary if you just want to fix a typo or small errors in the code.

Please note that your code must follow the coding style defined by the pep8 <https://pep8.org> and pass tests. Black <https://black.readthedocs.io/en/stable> and Flake8 <https://flake8.pycqa.org/en/latest>_ are used on this project to enforce the coding style.

Translate YOGA Image Optimizer


You can help translating it if the software is not available on your language.

To translate YOGA Image Optimizer, you can submit your translations creating a pull request on GitHub.

Do not forget to add your name as the translation of the ``translator-credits`` key (one name per line, email is optional)::

    #: yoga_image_optimizer/about_dialog.py:38
    msgid "translator-credits"
    msgstr ""
    "John DOE\n"
    "Other TRANSLATOR <foobar@example.org>\n"

Run the tests

You must install Nox <https://nox.thea.codes/>__ first::

pip3 install nox

Then you can check for lint error::

nox --session lint

or run the tests::

nox --session test

You can use following commands to run the tests only on a certain Python version (the corresponding Python interpreter must be installed on your machine)::

nox --session test-3.9
nox --session test-3.10
nox --session test-3.11
nox --session test-3.12
nox --session test-3.13

You can also fix coding style errors automatically with::

nox -s black_fix

Build, extract or update build translations



You must install `Nox <https://nox.thea.codes>`__ first::

    pip3 install nox

To extract messages and update locales, run::

    nox --session locales_update

To compile locales, run::

    nox --session locales_compile

**NOTE:** you must have ``msgfmt``, ``msgmerge`` and ``xgettext`` executable installed on your system to run the above commands. It can be done via the following command on Debian and Ubuntu::

    sudo apt install gettext
