salt-viewer 0.1.1

Simple image viewer

SaltViewer

Very simple image viewer on tkinter.

Why

I use mcomix on Linux for a long time. However, default mcomix do not support

• GIF animation
• Trash command

Thus I need mcomix alternative. I want to treat

• Many image type
• Archive files, like zip, rar, 7z
• Animation image like GIF
• Trash image or archive

Feature

• Single script
• Support archive
  • Zip, Rar, 7z, Pdf
• Support many image types
  • pillow
  • svg
• Support dual page mode
• Support animation
  • duration auto adjustment
  • GIF, PNG
• Repetition key
  • For example 100h means go to next 100 page.
• Delete image
• Configure file

How to install

pip install salt-viewer

I use python3.9.3. However it will work on old version greater than python3.5.

This scripts use these pip modules.

• cairosvg
• natsort
• pdf2python
• pillow
• py7zr
• rarfile
• send2trash

And use these packages.

• unrar(preferred), unar or bsdtar
  • For rarfile
• poppler
  • For pdf2python

How to Use

Now you can use salt-viewer command.

salt-viewer <image file | archive file>

If you use linux, you should use alias for time saving.

alias sv=salt-viewer
