tinyface 1.0.1

The minimalist face swapping tool that just works.

TinyFace

TinyFace is designed as a lightweight Python library with a simplified command-line interface, making it easy for both developers and users to perform face swaps.

Features

• Minimalist design: Focuses solely on face swapping with optimized speed and minimal dependencies.
• Easy-to-use API: Integrate face swapping into your own projects with just a few lines of code.
• Single and multi-face support: Swap a single face or multiple faces in one go.
• Command-line tool: Easily perform face swaps directly from the terminal.

Installation

Install tinyface with pip:

pip install tinyface

Usage

import cv2

from tinyface import FacePair, TinyFace

# Load input images
input_img = cv2.imread("input.jpg")
reference_img = cv2.imread("reference.jpg")
destination_img = cv2.imread("destination.jpg")

# Initialize the TinyFace instance
tinyface = TinyFace()

# (Optional) Prepare models (downloads automatically if skipped)
tinyface.prepare()

# Detect faces in the images
faces = tinyface.get_many_faces(input_img)
reference_face = tinyface.get_one_face(reference_img)
destination_face = tinyface.get_one_face(destination_img)

# Swap a single face
output_img = tinyface.swap_face(input_img, reference_face, destination_face)

# Swap multiple faces
output_img = tinyface.swap_faces(
    input_img,
    face_pairs=[FacePair(reference=reference_face, destination=destination_face)],
)
cv2.imwrite("out.jpg", output_img)

Commands

usage: tinyface swap [-h] -i INPUT -r REFERENCE -d DESTINATION [-s SAVE] [-w WORKERS]

options:
  -h, --help            Show this help message and exit
  -i INPUT, --input INPUT
                        Path to the input image(s)
  -r REFERENCE, --reference REFERENCE
                        Path to the reference face image(s)
  -d DESTINATION, --destination DESTINATION
                        Path to the destination face image(s)
  -s SAVE, --save SAVE  Save path for output image(s)
  -w WORKERS, --workers WORKERS
                        Number of worker threads for parallel processing
