Available functions

average(image, name=None, downsample=True, max_size=100, alpha_threshold=None)

Averages a single image into RGB color values. Returns a dictionary with the following keys: name, red, green, blue

• image - filename (string), pathlib.Path object or a file object. The file object must implement read(), seek(), and tell() methods, and be opened in binary mode.

• name - auto generated from image path by calling image.split(os.sep)[-1] unless set.

• downsample - chooses if downsampling is enabled to speed up processing. Enabled by default.

• max_size - max length of longest side if downsample is True

• alpha_threshold - level at which transparent pixels are excluded from the average. Default is 245

average_images(dir_in)

Averages each individual image in a directory and returns a list with an entry for each image successfully averaged. Returns a list containing a dictionary for each image with the following keys: name, red, green, blue

• dir_in - path to directory

directory_average(dir_in, name=None)

Averages all images in a directory to a singular RGB directory average. Returns a dictionary with the following keys: name, red, green, blue

• dir_in - path to directory

• name - auto generated from directory path by calling dir_in.split(os.sep)[-1] unless set.

nested_directory_average(root_dir)

Accepts the path to a directory and walks all the enclosed directories calling average_directory for each one that contains images. Returns a list containing a dictionary for each directory with the following keys: name, red, green, blue

• root_dir - path to starting directory
