## Installation

1. Add the dependency to your `shard.yml`:

   ```yaml
   dependencies:
     pluto:
       github: phenopolis/pluto
   ```

2. Run `shards install`.

## Usage

### Basic

```crystal
require "pluto"

# Formats requiring linkinkg a C library must be explicitly `require`d
require "pluto/format/jpeg"
require "pluto/format/png"
require "pluto/format/webp"

image = File.open("lib/pluto_samples/pluto.png") do |file|
  Pluto::ImageRGBA.from_png(file)
end

image.contrast(-100)  # Creates a new object
image.contrast!(-100) # Modifies the existing object

io = IO::Memory.new
image.to_jpeg(io)
io.rewind
File.write("output.jpeg", io)
```

### StumpyCore

Pluto can convert to and from [StumpyCore](https://github.com/stumpycr/stumpy_core) `Canvas` objects, so any format that Stumpy supports can be usable with Pluto as well.

```crystal
require "pluto"
require "stumpy_png"

canvas = StumpyPNG.read("lib/pluto_samples/pluto.png") # => StumpyCore::Canvas
image = Pluto::ImageRGBA.from_stumpy(canvas)           # => Pluto::ImageRGBA
image.to_stumpy                                        # => StumpyCore::Canvas
```

> **Note**
>
> Converting from a `StumpyCore::Canvas` created from a 16-bit image will result in a loss of information, since Pluto currently only supports 8 bit.
