Latest release is TwelveMonkeys ImageIO 3.3.2 (Feb. 2nd, 2017). Release notes.

About

TwelveMonkeys ImageIO is a collection of plugins and extensions for Java's ImageIO.

These plugins extends the number of image file formats supported in Java, using the javax.imageio.* package. The main purpose of this project is to provide support for formats not covered by the JRE itself.

Support for formats is important, both to be able to read data found "in the wild", as well as to maintain access to data in legacy formats. Because there is lots of legacy data out there, we see the need for open implementations of readers for popular formats. The goal is to create a set of efficient and robust ImageIO plug-ins, that can be distributed independently.

Basic usage

Most of the time, all you need to do is simply include the plugins in your project and write:

BufferedImage image = ImageIO.read(file);

This will load the first image of the file, entirely into memory.

The basic and simplest form of writing is:

if (!ImageIO.write(image, format, file)) {
   // Handle image not written case
}

This will write the entire image into a single file, using the default settings for the given format.

The plugins are discovered automatically at run time. See the FAQ for more info on how this mechanism works.

Advanced usage

If you need more control of read parameters and the reading process, the common idiom for reading is something like:

// Create input stream
ImageInputStream input = ImageIO.createImageInputStream(file);

try {
    // Get the reader
    Iterator<ImageReader> readers = ImageIO.getImageReaders(input);

    if (!readers.hasNext()) {
        throw new IllegalArgumentException("No reader for: " + file);
    }

    ImageReader reader = readers.next();

    try {
        reader.setInput(input);

        // Optionally, listen for read warnings, progress, etc.
        reader.addIIOReadWarningListener(...);
        reader.addIIOReadProgressListener(...);

        ImageReadParam param = reader.getDefaultReadParam();

        // Optionally, control read settings like sub sampling, source region or destination etc.
        param.setSourceSubsampling(...);
        param.setSourceRegion(...);
        param.setDestination(...);
        // ...

        // Finally read the image, using settings from param
        BufferedImage image = reader.read(0, param);

        // Optionally, read thumbnails, meta data, etc...
        int numThumbs = reader.getNumThumbnails(0);
        // ...
    }
    finally {
        // Dispose reader in finally block to avoid memory leaks
        reader.dispose();
    }
}
finally {
    // Close stream in finally block to avoid resource leaks
    input.close();
}

Query the reader for source image dimensions using reader.getWidth(n) and reader.getHeight(n) without reading the entire image into memory first.

It's also possible to read multiple images from the same file in a loop, using reader.getNumImages().

If you need more control of write parameters and the writing process, the common idiom for writing is something like:

// Get the writer
Iterator<ImageWriter> writers = ImageIO.getImageWritersByFormatName(format);

if (!writers.hasNext()) {
    throw new IllegalArgumentException("No writer for: " + format);
}

ImageWriter writer = writers.next();

try {
    // Create output stream
    ImageOutputStream output = ImageIO.createImageOutputStream(file);

    try {
        writer.setOutput(output);

        // Optionally, listen to progress, warnings, etc.

        ImageWriteParam param = writer.getDefaultWriteParam();

        // Optionally, control format specific settings of param (requires casting), or
        // control generic write settings like sub sampling, source region, output type etc.

        // Optionally, provide thumbnails and image/stream metadata
        writer.write(..., new IIOImage(..., image, ...), param);
    }
    finally {
        // Close stream in finally block to avoid resource leaks
        output.close();
    }
}
finally {
    // Dispose writer in finally block to avoid memory leaks
    writer.dispose();
}

For more advanced usage, and information on how to use the ImageIO API, I suggest you read the Java Image I/O API Guide from Oracle.

Deploying the plugins in a web app

Because the ImageIO plugin registry (the IIORegistry) is "VM global", it doesn't by default work well with servlet contexts. This is especially evident if you load plugins from the WEB-INF/lib or classes folder. Unless you add ImageIO.scanForPlugins() somewhere in your code, the plugins might never be available at all.

In addition, servlet contexts dynamically loads and unloads classes (using a new class loader per context). If you restart your application, old classes will by default remain in memory forever (because the next time scanForPlugins is called, it's another ClassLoader that scans/loads classes, and thus they will be new instances in the registry). If a read is attempted using one of the remaining "old" readers, weird exceptions (like NullPointerExceptions when accessing static final initialized fields or NoClassDefFoundErrors for uninitialized inner classes) may occur.

To work around both the discovery problem and the resource leak, it is strongly recommended to use the IIOProviderContextListener that implements dynamic loading and unloading of ImageIO plugins for web applications.

<web-app ...>

...

    <listener>
        <display-name>ImageIO service provider loader/unloader</display-name>
        <listener-class>com.twelvemonkeys.servlet.image.IIOProviderContextListener</listener-class>
    </listener>

...

</web-app>

Loading plugins from WEB-INF/lib without the context listener installed is unsupported and will not work correctly.

The context listener has no dependencies to the TwelveMonkeys ImageIO plugins, and may be used with JAI ImageIO or other ImageIO plugins as well.

Another safe option, is to place the JAR files in the application server's shared or common lib folder.

Using the ResampleOp

The library comes with a resampling (image resizing) operation, that contains many different algorithms to provide excellent results at reasonable speed.

import com.twelvemonkeys.image.ResampleOp;

...

BufferedImage input = ...; // Image to resample
int width, height = ...; // new width/height

BufferedImageOp resampler = new ResampleOp(width, height, ResampleOp.FILTER_LANCZOS); // A good default filter, see class documentation for more info
BufferedImage output = resampler.filter(input, null);

Using the DiffusionDither

The library comes with a dithering operation, that can be used to convert BufferedImages to IndexColorModel using Floyd-Steinberg error-diffusion dither.

import com.twelvemonkeys.image.DiffusionDither;

...

BufferedImage input = ...; // Image to dither

BufferedImageOp ditherer = new DiffusionDither();
BufferedImage output = ditherer.filter(input, null);

Building

Download the project (using Git):

$ git clone [email protected]:haraldk/TwelveMonkeys.git

This should create a folder named TwelveMonkeys in your current directory. Change directory to the TwelveMonkeys folder, and issue the command below to build.

Build the project (using Maven):

$ mvn package

Currently, the recommended JDK for making a build is Oracle JDK 7.x or 8.x.

It's possible to build using OpenJDK, but some tests might fail due to some minor differences between the color management systems used. You will need to either disable the tests in question, or build without tests altogether.

Because the unit tests needs quite a bit of memory to run, you might have to set the environment variable MAVEN_OPTS to give the Java process that runs Maven more memory. I suggest something like -Xmx512m -XX:MaxPermSize=256m.

Optionally, you can install the project in your local Maven repository using:

$ mvn install

Installing

To install the plug-ins, either use Maven and add the necessary dependencies to your project, or manually add the needed JARs along with required dependencies in class-path.

The ImageIO registry and service lookup mechanism will make sure the plugins are available for use.

To verify that the JPEG plugin is installed and used at run-time, you could use the following code:

Iterator<ImageReader> readers = ImageIO.getImageReadersByFormatName("JPEG");
while (readers.hasNext()) {
    System.out.println("reader: " + readers.next());
}

The first line should print:

reader: com.twelvemonkeys.imageio.plugins.jpeg.JPEGImageReader@somehash

FAQ

q: How do I use it?

a: The easiest way is to build your own project using Maven, and just add dependencies to the specific plug-ins you need. If you don't use Maven, make sure you have all the necessary JARs in classpath. See the Install section above.

q: What changes do I have to make to my code in order to use the plug-ins?

a: The short answer is: None. For basic usage, like ImageIO.read(...) or ImageIO.getImageReaders(...), there is no need to change your code. Most of the functionality is available through standard ImageIO APIs, and great care has been taken not to introduce extra API where none is necessary.

Should you want to use very specific/advanced features of some of the formats, you might have to use specific APIs, like setting base URL for an SVG image that consists of multiple files, or controlling the output compression of a TIFF file.

q: How does it work?

a: The TwelveMonkeys ImageIO project contains plug-ins for ImageIO. ImageIO uses a service lookup mechanism, to discover plug-ins at runtime.

All you have have to do, is to make sure you have the TwelveMonkeys JARs in your classpath.

You can read more about the registry and the lookup mechanism in the IIORegistry API doc.

The fine print: The TwelveMonkeys service providers for JPEG, BMP and TIFF, overrides the onRegistration method, and utilizes the pairwise partial ordering mechanism of the IIOServiceRegistry to make sure it is installed before the Sun/Oracle provided JPEGImageReader and BMPImageReader, and the Apple provided TIFFImageReader on OS X, respectively. Using the pairwise ordering will not remove any functionality form these implementations, but in most cases you'll end up using the TwelveMonkeys plug-ins instead.

q: What about JAI? Several of the formats are already supported by JAI.

a: While JAI (and jai-imageio in particular) have support for some of the formats, JAI has some major issues. The most obvious being:

  • It's not actively developed. No issues has been fixed for years.
  • To get full format support, you need native libs. Native libs does not exist for several popular platforms/architectures, and further the native libs are not open source. Some environments may also prevent deployment of native libs, which brings us back to square one.

q: What about JMagick or IM4Java? Can't you just use what´s already available?

a: While great libraries with a wide range of formats support, the ImageMagick-based libraries has some disadvantages compared to ImageIO.

  • No real stream support, these libraries only work with files.
  • No easy access to pixel data through standard Java2D/BufferedImage API.
  • Not a pure Java solution, requires system specific native libs.
