heic-to-jpg 0.2.0

Convert .heic images to .jpg

heic-to-jpg 📸

CLI tool for converting HEIC images to jpg.

Essentially, this is just a thin convenience wrapper around imagemagick's magick cli.

Motivation: When transfering images from an iPhone to a Mac via airdrop, they are being transfered as HEIC. Oftentime though, another format (such as jpg) is required to further make use of those images.

👉 ⚠️ Please note that imagemagick is a prerequisite for this to work.

👉 ⚠️ Please note that this has been tested on macOS only. There might be issues on other operating systems (Linux, Windows).

installation

pip install heic-to-jpg

(pip3 install heic-to-jpg for some; an up-to-date-ish python3 is recommended.)

usage

heic-to-jpg -s ~/path/to/source [--keep] [--debug None|Trace|All]

or

heic2jpg -s ~/path/to/source [--keep] [--debug None|Trace|All]

~/path/to/source can both be a directory or a single .HEIC file. Without the --keep flag, the original file is deleted after conversion.
