Magnum::Trade::OpenExrImageConverter class new in Git master

#include <MagnumPlugins/OpenExrImageConverter/OpenExrImageConverter.h>

Usage

This plugin depends on the Trade library and is built if WITH_OPENEXRIMAGECONVERTER is enabled when building Magnum Plugins. To use as a dynamic plugin, load "OpenExrImageConverter" via Corrade::PluginManager::Manager.

Additionally, if you're using Magnum as a CMake subproject, bundle the magnum-plugins and openexr repositories (pin OpenEXR at v3.0.1 at least) and do the following. OpenEXR depends on zlib and Imath, however it's capable of fetching those dependencies on its own so bundling them isn't necessary. If you want to use system-installed OpenEXR, omit the first part and point CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH to its installation dir if necessary.

# Otherwise OpenEXR uses C++14, and before OpenEXR 3.0.2 also forces C++14 on

# OpenEXR implicitly bundles Imath. However, without this only the first CMake
# run will pass and subsequent runs will fail.
set(CMAKE_DISABLE_FIND_PACKAGE_Imath ON)
# These variables may be used by other projects, so ensure they're reset back
# to their original values after. OpenEXR forces CMAKE_DEBUG_POSTFIX to _d,
# which isn't desired outside of that library.

# So the dynamically loaded plugin gets built implicitly
add_dependencies(your-app MagnumPlugins::OpenExrImageConverter)

To use as a static plugin or as a dependency of another plugin with CMake, put FindMagnumPlugins.cmake and FindOpenEXR.cmake into your modules/ directory, request the OpenExrImageConverter component of the MagnumPlugins package and link to the MagnumPlugins::OpenExrImageConverter target:

find_package(MagnumPlugins REQUIRED OpenExrImageConverter)

# ...
target_link_libraries(your-app PRIVATE MagnumPlugins::OpenExrImageConverter)

Behavior and limitations

Plugin-specific configuration

It's possible to tune various options mainly for channel mapping through configuration(). See below for all options and their default values:

[configuration]
# Number of threads OpenEXR should use for compression and writing. A value
# of 1 performs compression and writing serially in the calling thread, 2 adds
# one additional worker thread for compression, etc. 0 sets it to the value
# returned by std::thread::hardware_concurrency().
#
# Note that while the amount of threads can be controlled per-file, OpenEXR has
# a global thread pool and its size will remain at the largest set value until
# the plugin is unloaded. OpenExrImporter shares the same thread pool.
threads=1

# Save channels with given layer
layer=

# Map R/RG/RGB/RGBA image channels to given channel names. If the image is in a
# PixelFormat::Depth32F, depth is used instead. If the channel is not present
# in the input or if its name is empty, it's not written to the file.
r=R
g=G
b=B
a=A
depth=Z

# Set to latlong for 2D images to annotate the image as a lat/long environment
# map and to cube to save a 3D image as a cube map. If empty, no environment
# map metadata are saved.
envmap=

# Display and data window. OpenEXR allows the image to annotate a crop border
# or specify that the data are just a small portion of a bigger image. The
# display window is a four-component vector with (inclusive) Xmin, Ymin, Xmax,
# Ymax coordinates. If left empty, it's implicitly set to 0 0 width-1 height-1.
# The data window size is always set to width-1 height-1 and you can only set
# the offset. For details see the pixel space, Display Window and Data Window
# chapter of https://www.openexr.com/documentation/TechnicalIntroduction.pdf .
displayWindow=
dataOffset=0 0

# Compression. Allowed values are rle, zip, zips, piz, pxr24, b44, b44a, dwaa
# and dwab; leave it empty to write the output uncompressed. Details about
# particular compression algorithms are in the Data Compression chapter of
# https://www.openexr.com/documentation/TechnicalIntroduction.pdf .
compression=zip

# OpenEXR files with mipmaps are always tiled, single level is implicitly
# written as scanlines, unless this option is enabled. Tile size 32x32 is
# library default, larger sizes may lead to less overhead and better
# compression ratios at the cost of more unused space at smallest image
# levels.
forceTiledOutput=false
tileSize=32 32
