This package provides a wrapper around ImageMagick version 6. It was split off from Images.jl to make image I/O more modular.
Add the package with
Pkg.add("ImageMagick")
ImageMagick will be used as needed if you've said
using FileIO
in your session or module. You should not generally say using ImageMagick
. See FileIO for
further details.
It's worth pointing out that packages such as Images.jl load FileIO for you.
Loading an image is then as simple as
img = load(filename[; view=false])
Set view=true
to reduce memory consumption when loading large files, possibly
at some slight cost in terms of performance of future operations.
The environment variable MAGICK_THREAD_LIMIT
can be used to throttle multithreading.
