SkImage Reference

Image

Class SkImage

Image describes a two dimensional array of pixels to draw. The pixels may be unencoded in a Raster Bitmap, encoded in a Picture or compressed data stream, or located in GPU memory as a GPU Texture.

Image cannot be modified after it is created. Image may allocate additional storage as needed; for instance, an encoded Image may decode when drawn.

Image width and height are greater than zero. Creating an Image with zero width or height returns Image equal to nullptr.

Image may be created from Bitmap, Pixmap, Surface, Picture, encoded streams, GPU Texture, YUV ColorSpace data, or hardware buffer. Encoded streams supported include BMP, GIF, HEIF, ICO, JPEG, PNG, WBMP, WebP. Supported encodings details vary with platform.

Raster Image

Raster Image pixels are unencoded in a Raster Bitmap. These pixels may be read directly and in most cases written to, although edited pixels may not be drawn if Image has been copied internally.

Texture Image

Texture Image are located on GPU and pixels are not accessible. Texture Image are allocated optimally for best performance. Raster Image may be drawn to GPU Surface, but pixels are uploaded from CPU to GPU downgrading performance.

Lazy Image

Lazy Image defer allocating buffer for Image pixels and decoding stream until Image is drawn. Lazy Image caches result if possible to speed up repeated drawing.

MakeRasterCopy

static sk_sp<SkImage> MakeRasterCopy(const SkPixmap& pixmap)

Creates Image from Pixmap and copy of pixels. Since pixels are copied, Pixmap pixels may be modified or deleted without affecting Image.

Image is returned if Pixmap is valid. Valid Pixmap parameters include: dimensions are greater than zero; each dimension fits in 29 bits; Color Type and Alpha Type are valid, and Color Type is not kUnknown SkColorType; row bytes are large enough to hold one row of pixels; pixel address is not nullptr.

Parameters

pixmap

Image Info, pixel address, and row bytes

Return Value

copy of Pixmap pixels, or nullptr

Example

Draw a five by five bitmap, and draw a copy in an Image. Editing the pixmap alters the bitmap draw, but does not alter the Image draw since the Image contains a copy of the pixels.

Valid Image Info parameters include: dimensions are greater than zero; each dimension fits in 29 bits; Color Type and Alpha Type are valid, and Color Type is not kUnknown SkColorType; rowBytes are large enough to hold one row of pixels; pixels is not nullptr, and contains enough data for Image.

Parameters

info	contains width, height, Alpha Type, Color Type, Color Space
pixels	address or pixel storage
rowBytes	size of pixel row or larger

Return Value

Image sharing pixels, or nullptr

                                     ReleaseContext releaseContext)

Creates Image from pixmap, sharing Pixmap pixels. Pixels must remain valid and unchanged until rasterReleaseProc is called. rasterReleaseProc is passed releaseContext when Image is deleted or no longer refers to pixmap pixels.

Pass nullptr for rasterReleaseProc to share Pixmap without requiring a callback when Image is released. Pass nullptr for releaseContext if rasterReleaseProc does not require state.

Image is returned if pixmap is valid. Valid Pixmap parameters include: dimensions are greater than zero; each dimension fits in 29 bits; Color Type and Alpha Type are valid, and Color Type is not kUnknown SkColorType; row bytes are large enough to hold one row of pixels; pixel address is not nullptr.

MakeFromBitmap

static sk_sp<SkImage> MakeFromBitmap(const SkBitmap& bitmap)

Creates Image from bitmap, sharing or copying bitmap pixels. If the bitmap is marked immutable, and its pixel memory is shareable, it may be shared instead of copied.

Image is returned if bitmap is valid. Valid Bitmap parameters include: dimensions are greater than zero; each dimension fits in 29 bits; Color Type and Alpha Type are valid, and Color Type is not kUnknown SkColorType; row bytes are large enough to hold one row of pixels; pixel address is not nullptr.

Parameters

bitmap

Image Info, row bytes, and pixels

Return Value

created Image, or nullptr

Example

The first Bitmap is shared; writing to the pixel memory changes the first Image. The second Bitmap is marked immutable, and is copied; writing to the pixel memory does not alter the second Image.

Enum SkImage::CachingHint

enum CachingHint {
kAllow CachingHint,
kDisallow CachingHint,
};

CachingHint selects whether Skia may internally cache Bitmaps generated by decoding Image, or by copying Image from GPU to CPU. The default behavior allows caching Bitmaps.

Choose kDisallow CachingHint if Image pixels are to be used only once, or if Image pixels reside in a cache outside of Skia, or to reduce memory pressure.

Choosing kAllow CachingHint does not ensure that pixels will be cached. Image pixels may not be cached if memory requirements are too large or pixels are not accessible.

Constants

SkImage::kAllow_CachingHint	0	Allows Skia to internally cache decoded and copied pixels.
SkImage::kDisallow_CachingHint	1	Disallows Skia from internally caching decoded and copied pixels.

bool readPixels(const SkImageInfo& dstInfo, void* dstPixels, size_t dstRowBytes, int srcX, int srcY,
                CachingHint cachingHint = kAllow_CachingHint) const

Copies Rect of pixels from Image to dstPixels. Copy starts at offset (srcX, srcY), and does not exceed Image (width, height).

dstInfo specifies width, height, Color Type, Alpha Type, and Color Space of destination. dstRowBytes specifics the gap from one destination row to the next. Returns true if pixels are copied. Returns false if:

dstInfo.addr() equals nullptr

dstRowBytes is less than dstInfo.minRowBytes

Pixel Ref is nullptr

Pixels are copied only if pixel conversion is possible. If Image Color Type is kGray 8 SkColorType, or kAlpha 8 SkColorType; dstInfo.colorType must match. If Image Color Type is kGray 8 SkColorType, dstInfo.colorSpace must match. If Image Alpha Type is kOpaque SkAlphaType, dstInfo.alphaType must match. If Image Color Space is nullptr, dstInfo.colorSpace must match. Returns false if pixel conversion is not possible.

srcX and srcY may be negative to copy only top or left of source. Returns false if width or height is zero or negative. Returns false ifabs(srcX) >= Image width, or ifabs(srcY) >= Image height.

If cachingHint is kAllow CachingHint, pixels may be retained locally. If cachingHint is kDisallow CachingHint, pixels are not added to the local cache.

Parameters

dstInfo	destination width, height, Color Type, Alpha Type, Color Space
dstPixels	destination pixel storage
dstRowBytes	destination row length
srcX	column index whose absolute value is less than width

encodeToData

sk_sp<SkData> encodeToData(SkEncodedImageFormat encodedImageFormat, int quality) const

Encodes Image pixels, returning result as SkData.

Returns nullptr if encoding fails, or if encodedImageFormat is not supported.

Image encoding in a format requires both building with one or more of: SK_HAS_JPEG_LIBRARY, SK_HAS_PNG_LIBRARY, SK_HAS_WEBP_LIBRARY; and platform support for the encoded format.

If SK_BUILD_FOR_MAC or SK_BUILD_FOR_IOS is defined, encodedImageFormat can additionally be one of: SkEncodedImageFormat::kICO, SkEncodedImageFormat::kBMP, SkEncodedImageFormat::kGIF.

quality is a platform and format specific metric trading off size and encoding error. When used, quality equaling 100 encodes with the least error. quality may be ignored by the encoder.

Parameters

encodedImageFormat	one of: SkEncodedImageFormat::kJPEG, SkEncodedImageFormat::kPNG, SkEncodedImageFormat::kWEBP
quality	encoder specific metric with 100 equaling best

Return Value

encoded Image, or nullptr

makeWithFilter

sk_sp<SkImage> makeWithFilter(const SkImageFilter* filter, const SkIRect& subset,
                              const SkIRect& clipBounds, SkIRect* outSubset, SkIPoint* offset) const

Creates filtered Image. filter processes original Image, potentially changing color, position, and size. subset is the bounds of original Image processed by filter. clipBounds is the expected bounds of the filtered Image. outSubset is required storage for the actual bounds of the filtered Image. offset is required storage for translation of returned Image.

Returns nullptr if Image could not be created. If nullptr is returned, outSubset and offset are undefined.

makeWithFilter is optimized to support Image backed by GPU Texture drawn in an animation with SkImageFilter that vary in size from one frame to the next. The created Image is drawn at an increased size so that GPU Texture can be reused with different sized effects. outSubset describes the valid bounds of GPU Texture returned. The returned Image may be much larger than required for the filter. offset translates the returned Image to keep subsequent animation frames aligned with respect to each other.

Parameters

filter	how Image is sampled when transformed
subset	incomplete
clipBounds	incomplete
outSubset	incomplete
offset	incomplete

Return Value

filtered Image, or nullptr

Example

In each frame of the animation, filtered Image is drawn in a different location. By translating canvas by returned offset, Image appears stationary.

getDeferredTextureImageData

size_t getDeferredTextureImageData(const GrContextThreadSafeProxy& contextThreadSafeProxy,
                 const DeferredTextureImageUsageParams deferredTextureImageUsageParams[],
                 int paramCnt, void* buffer, SkColorSpace* dstColorSpace = nullptr,
                 SkColorType dstColorType = kN32_SkColorType) const

Used only by Chrome; to be deprecated.

This method allows clients to capture the data necessary to turn a SkImage into a texture- backed image. If the original image is codec-backed this will decode into a format optimized for the context represented by the proxy. This method is thread safe with respect to the GrContext whence the proxy came. Clients allocate and manage the storage of the deferred texture data and control its lifetime. No cleanup is required, thus it is safe to simply free the memory out from under the data.

The same method is used both for getting the size necessary for pre-uploaded texture data and for retrieving the data. The params array represents the set of draws over which to optimize the pre-upload data.

When called with a null buffer this returns the size that the client must allocate in order to create deferred texture data for this image (or zero if this is an inappropriate candidate). The buffer allocated by the client should be 8 byte aligned.

When buffer is not null this fills in the deferred texture data for this image in the provided buffer (assuming this is an appropriate candidate image and the buffer is appropriately aligned). Upon success the size written is returned, otherwise 0.

dstColorSpace is the Color Space of the surface where this texture will ultimately be used. If the method determines that mip-maps are needed, this helps determine the correct strategy for building them (gamma-correct or not).

dstColorType is the color type of the surface where this texture will ultimately be used. This determines the format with which the image will be uploaded to the GPU. If dstColorType does not support Color Space (low bit depth types such as kARGB 4444 SkColorType), then dstColorSpace must be null.

Parameters

contextThreadSafeProxy	thread safe GPU context
deferredTextureImageUsageParams	array of Image transformations
paramCnt	entries in deferredTextureImageUsageParams array
buffer	storage for GPU Texture data, or nullptr
dstColorSpace	Surface Color Space, or nullptr
dstColorType	Surface Color Type

Return Value

size of storage for GPU Texture data

BackendTextureReleaseProc

MakeBackendTextureFromSkImage

static bool MakeBackendTextureFromSkImage(GrContext* context, sk_sp<SkImage> image,
                                          GrBackendTexture* backendTexture,
                                          BackendTextureReleaseProc* backendTextureReleaseProc)

Creates a GrBackendTexture from the provided SkImage. Returns true on success. The GrBackendTexture and BackendTextureReleaseProc are populated on success. It is the callers responsibility to call the BackendTextureReleaseProc once they have deleted the texture. Note that the BackendTextureReleaseProc allows Skia to clean up auxiliary data related to the GrBackendTexture, and is not a substitute for the client deleting the GrBackendTexture themselves.

If image is both texture backed and singly referenced; that is, its only reference was transferred using std::move(): image is returned in backendTexture without conversion or making a copy.

If the SkImage is not texture backed, this function will generate a texture with the image's contents and return that.

Parameters

context	GPU Context
image	incomplete
backendTexture	incomplete
backendTextureReleaseProc	incomplete

Return Value

incomplete
