Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'miro'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install miro

Usage

Configuration

# Defaults
Miro.options # => {:image_magick_path  => "/usr/bin/convert", :resolution => "150x150", :color_count => 8}

# Setting new options
Miro.options[:image_magick_path] = '/usr/local/bin/convert'
Miro.options[:resolution] = '100x100'
Miro.options[:color_count] = 4
Miro.options[:method] = 'histogram'

By default the method option is configured with 'pixel_group' to improve performance change to 'histogram', this will fetch directly from imagemagick the image histogram without any disk operation(read/write) but read the original file.

Initializing an image

# Initialize with a local image
colors = Miro::DominantColors.new('/path/to/local/image.jpg')

# or Initialize with a remote image
colors = Miro::DominantColors.new('http://domain.com/path/to/image.jpg')
