Imagecast

About

Imagecast is like ImageMagick but for Pythonistas. Optionally provides its features via HTTP API.

Currently, this is based on Pillow. However, it might be based on Wand in the future.

There might still be dragons.

Install

Prerequisites

pip install imagecast

With service API:

pip install imagecast[service]

Features

  • Colorspace conversion: monochrome, grayscale

  • Cropping with negative right/bottom offsets

  • Resizing while keeping aspect ratio

  • Output format: Any image formats from Pillow or raw bytes

  • HTTP API
