Blit Description

Blit is a simple pixel-composition library for Python.Blit can combine images and colors using different image blend modes, inspired by the layers palette in GIMP or Adobe Photoshop. You can create a layer from an image or color, and add new layers on top of it with a combination of opacity (0 - 1), mask image, and blend mode.>>> from Blit import Bitmap, adjustments>>> photo = Bitmap('photo.jpg')>>> sepia = adjustments.curves2(, , )>>> oldphoto = photo.adjust(sepia)>>> from Blit import Color>>> purple = Color(50, 0, 100)>>> orange = Color(255, 220, 180)>>> duotone = purple.blend(orange, mask=photo)APILayer Layer.size() returns (width, height) tuple. Layer.rgba(width, height) returns list of four numpy arrays, for red, green, blue and alpha channels. The dimensions of channel arrays will be extended or clipped to match the requested width and height. Layer.image() returns a new PIL image instance for the layer. Layer.blend(otherlayer, mask=None, opacity=1, blendfunc=None) blends two layers and returns a new Layer that combines the two. Optional arguments: mask is a Layer instance interpreted as a greyscale mask. opacity is a float from zero to one. blendfunc is a blend mode such as screen or multiply. See "blends" below. Layer.adjust(adjustfunc) returns a new layer instance adjusted by the adjustment function. See "adjustments" below.BitmapA kind of Layer that represents a raster image file. Instantiate a Bitmap with a file name:bicycle = Bitmap('bicycle.jpg')ColorA kind of Layer that represents a single color. Instantiate a Color with the numeric values of its channels, from zero to 255:orange = Color(255, 153, 0)translucent_black = Color(0, 0, 0, 102) Color.size() returns None so it's clear that a color has no intrinsic size. Color.image() returns a 1x1 pixel PIL image.blendsA blend is a function that accepts two identically-sized input single-channel arrays and returns a single output array. blends.screen(bottom, top) implements screen blend. blends.add(bottom, top) implements additive blending. blends.multiply(bottom, top) implements multiply blend. blends.subtract(bottom, top) implements subtractive blending. blends.linear_light(bottom, top) implements linear light blend. blends.hard_light(bottom, top) implements hard light blend.adjustmentsAn adjustment is a function that takes a list of four identically-sized channel arrays (red, green, blue, and alpha) and returns a new list of four channels. The factory functions in this module return functions that perform adjustments. adjustments.threshold(red, green, blue) returns an adjustment function that applies a threshold to each channel, converting greyscale channels to plain black & white cut at the value given (0-255). If omitted, the green and blue arguments are identical to red. adjustments.curves(black, grey, white) returns an adjustment function that applies a curve to each channel. Arguments are three integers that are intended to be mapped to black, grey, and white outputs. For example, curves(0, 204, 255) will darken a layer while curves(0, 53, 255) will lighten it. adjustments.curves2(red_map, green_map, blue_map) returns an adjustment function that applies a curve to each channel. Arguments are given in the form of three value mappings, typically mapping black, grey and white input and output values. One argument indicates an effect applicable to all channels, three arguments apply effects to each channel separately. Simple monochrome inversion: map_red= Darken a light image by pushing light grey down by 50%, 0x99 to 0x66: map_red= Shaded hills, with Imhof-style purple-blue shadows and warm highlights: map_red=, map_green=, map_blue=Product's homepage
