exr-converter

This python package converts EXR images into several image file formats, back and forth.
The conversion also allows for the output image file to contain pixels of different data type to those in the input image file (if permitted by the file format)

Requirements

1. OpenEXR C++ library.

   Source code located in https://github.com/openexr/openexr

   There are several options for installing it:

   • Directly in linux or mac:

     Ubuntu: sudo apt-get install libopenexr-dev openexr

     Mac: sudo port install openexr

     Check out https://excamera.com/sphinx/articles-openexr.html

   • Using Conda:

     conda install -c conda-forge openexr

     For more options, see https://anaconda.org/conda-forge/openexr

2. OpenEXR python bindings.

   Install them by running:

   pip install openexr

   Source code located in https://github.com/jamesbowman/openexrpython

   Note that if you installed the OpenEXR C++ library with conda, you might need to clone and manually install this repo, since you might need to modify the base paths in include_dirs and library_dirs (defined in https://github.com/jamesbowman/openexrpython/blob/master/setup.py) to match the library base paths in your Anaconda installation.
