piffle 0.4.0

Python library for generating IIIF Image API urls

piffle

Python library for generating and parsing IIIF Image API URLs in an object-oriented, pythonic fashion.

Piffle is tested on Python 3.6-3.8.

Piffle was originally developed by Rebecca Sutton Koeser at Emory University as a part of Readux and forked as a separate project under emory-lits-labs. It was later transferred to Rebecca Sutton Koeser at the Center for Digital Humanities at Princeton.

Installation and example use:

pip install piffle

Example use for generating an IIIF image url:

>>> from piffle.image import IIIFImageClient
>>> myimg = IIIFImageClient('http://image.server/path/', 'myimgid')
>>> print myimg
http://image.server/path/myimgid/full/full/0/default.jpg
>>> print myimg.info()
http://image.server/path/myimgid/info.json"
>>> print myimg.size(width=120).format('png')
http://image.server/path/myimgid/full/120,/0/default.png

Example use for parsing an IIIF image url:

>>> from piffle.image import IIIFImageClient
>>> myimg = IIIFImageClient.init_from_url('http://www.example.org/image-service/abcd1234/full/full/0/default.jpg')
>>> print myimg
http://www.example.org/image-service/abcd1234/full/full/0/default.jpg
>>> print myimg.info()
http://www.example.org/image-service/abcd1234/info.json
>>> myimg.as_dict()['size']['full']
True
>>> myimg.as_dict()['size']['exact']
False
>>> myimg.as_dict()['rotation']['degrees']
0.0

Example use for reading a IIIF manifest:

>>> from piffle.image import IIIFImageClient
>>> from piffle.presentation import IIIFPresentation
>>>  manifest = IIIFPresentation.from_url('https://iiif.bodleian.ox.ac.uk/iiif/manifest/60834383-7146-41ab-bfe1-48ee97bc04be.json')
>>> manifest.label
'Bodleian Library MS. Bodl. 264'
>>> manifest.id
'https://iiif.bodleian.ox.ac.uk/iiif/manifest/60834383-7146-41ab-bfe1-48ee97bc04be.json'
>>> manifest.type
'sc:Manifest'
>>> for canvas in manifest.sequences[0].canvases[:5]:
...     image_id = canvas.images[0].resource.id
...     iiif_img = IIIFImageClient(*image_id.rsplit('/', 1))
...     print(str(iiif_img.size(height=250)))
...
