turbojpeg

Rust bindings for TurboJPEG, which provides simple and fast operations for JPEG images:

• Compression (encoding)
• Decompression (decoding)
• Lossless transformations

Usage with image-rs (version 0.24)

To quickly encode and decode images from the image crate (version 0.24), add this to the [dependencies] section in your Cargo.toml:

turbojpeg = {version = "1.0", features = ["image"]}

and then use the functions turbojpeg::decompress_image and turbojpeg::compress_image.

For more advanced usage without the image crate, please see the documentation.

Requirements

The low-level binding to libturbojpeg is provided by the crate turbojpeg-sys, which needs to link to the C library. Typically, you will need CMake, a C compiler and NASM to build the library from source, but see its README for details.
