This package wraps the core functionality of libvips image processing library by exposing all image operations on first-class types in Go.
How fast is libvips? See this: Speed and Memory Use
The intent for this is to enable developers to build extremely fast image processors in Go, which is suited well for concurrent requests.
Libvips is generally 4-8x faster than other graphics processors such as GraphicsMagick and ImageMagick.
- libvips 8.10+
- C compatible compiler such as gcc 4.6+ or clang 3.0+
- Go 1.14+
