Webp support

Open hkmaly opened this issue 5 years ago • 7 comments

Hello,

according to https://libgd.github.io/manuals/2.2.4/files/gd_webp-c.html the libGD supports webP format now. Would there be any problem in adding that support to gd2-ffij? (There is also tiff support, but I guess noone cares about that).

Adding either webp or tiff support should be pretty simple unless there’s some additional functionality specific to either of those formats that require adding some more extensive code changes. I don’t have access to library docs right now, but I can take a look once I get back to a machine to check.

Seems that it will be more and more important. Any progress on this?

Would mentioning we are evaluating switch to https://github.com/libvips/ruby-vips make more or less likely this ticket would be worked on?

I can likely put some time into this soon as I have some PRs that need merging as well.

Just as a heads up, I have started on support for webp, more to come very soon, hopefully before the weekend is out.

Good. We are still evaluating (or rather, the project was interrupted by something else).

@hkmaly and anyone else interested -- see #26 for some initial WebP support and see what you think.
