large_image.tilesource package

Submodules

large_image.tilesource.base module

class large_image.tilesource.base.FileTileSource(path, *args, **kwargs)

Bases: TileSource

Initialize the tile class. See the base class for other available parameters.

Parameters:

path – a filesystem path for the tile source.

classmethod canRead(path, *args, **kwargs)

Check if we can read the input. This takes the same parameters as __init__.

Returns:

True if this class can read the input. False if it cannot.

static getLRUHash(*args, **kwargs)

Return a string hash used as a key in the recently-used cache for tile sources.

Returns:

a string hash value.

getState()

Return a string reflecting the state of the tile source. This is used as part of a cache key when hashing function return values.

Returns:

a string hash value of the source state.

class large_image.tilesource.base.TileSource(encoding='JPEG', jpegQuality=95, jpegSubsampling=0, tiffCompression='raw', edge=False, style=None, *args, **kwargs)

Bases: object

Initialize the tile class.

Parameters:

• jpegQuality – when serving jpegs, use this quality.

• jpegSubsampling – when serving jpegs, use this subsampling (0 is full chroma, 1 is half, 2 is quarter).

• encoding – ‘JPEG’, ‘PNG’, ‘TIFF’, or ‘TILED’.

• edge – False to leave edge tiles whole, True or ‘crop’ to crop edge tiles, otherwise, an #rrggbb color to fill edges.

• tiffCompression – the compression format to use when encoding a TIFF.

• style –

  if None, use the default style for the file. Otherwise, this is a string with a json-encoded dictionary. The style can contain the following keys:

  band:

  if -1 or None, and if style is specified at all, the greyscale value is used. Otherwise, a 1-based numerical index into the channels of the image or a string that matches the interpretation of the band (‘red’, ‘green’, ‘blue’, ‘gray’, ‘alpha’). Note that ‘gray’ on an RGB or RGBA image will use the green band.

  frame:

  if specified, override the frame value for this band. When used as part of a bands list, this can be used to composite multiple frames together. It is most efficient if at least one band either doesn’t specify a frame parameter or specifies the same frame value as the primary query.

  framedelta:

  if specified and frame is not specified, override the frame value for this band by using the current frame plus this value.

  min:

  the value to map to the first palette value. Defaults to 0. ‘auto’ to use 0 if the reported minimum and maximum of the band are between [0, 255] or use the reported minimum otherwise. ‘min’ or ‘max’ to always uses the reported minimum or maximum. ‘full’ to always use 0.

  max:

  the value to map to the last palette value. Defaults to 255. ‘auto’ to use 0 if the reported minimum and maximum of the band are between [0, 255] or use the reported maximum otherwise. ‘min’ or ‘max’ to always uses the reported minimum or maximum. ‘full’ to use the maximum value of the base data type (either 1, 255, or 65535).

  palette:

  a list of two or more color strings, where color strings are of the form #RRGGBB, #RRGGBBAA, #RGB, #RGBA, or any string parseable by the PIL modules, or, if it is installed, byt matplotlib. Alternately, this can be a single color, which implies [‘#000’, <color>], or the name of a palettable paletter or, if available, a matplotlib palette.

  nodata:

  the value to use for missing data. null or unset to not use a nodata value.

  composite:

  either ‘lighten’ or ‘multiply’. Defaults to ‘lighten’ for all except the alpha band.

  clamp:

  either True to clamp (also called clip or crop) values outside of the [min, max] to the ends of the palette or False to make outside values transparent.

  dtype:

  convert the results to the specified numpy dtype. Normally, if a style is applied, the results are intermediately a float numpy array with a value range of [0,255]. If this is ‘uint16’, it will be cast to that and multiplied by 65535/255. If ‘float’, it will be divided by 255.

  axis:

  keep only the specified axis from the numpy intermediate results. This can be used to extract a single channel after compositing.

  Alternately, the style object can contain a single key of ‘bands’, which has a value which is a list of style dictionaries as above, excepting that each must have a band that is not -1. Bands are composited in the order listed. This base object may also contain the ‘dtype’ and ‘axis’ values.

classmethod canRead(*args, **kwargs)

Check if we can read the input. This takes the same parameters as __init__.

Returns:

True if this class can read the input. False if it cannot.

• output –

  a dictionary of optional values which specify the size of the output.

  mm_x:

  the horizontal size of a pixel in millimeters.

• tile_size –

  if present, retile the output to the specified tile size. If only width or only height is specified, the resultant tiles will be square. This is a dictionary containing at least one of:

  width:

  the desired tile width.

  height:

  the desired tile height.

• tile_overlap –

  if present, retile the output adding a symmetric overlap to the tiles. If either x or y is not specified, it defaults to zero. The overlap does not change the tile size, only the stride of the tiles. This is a dictionary containing:

  x:

  the horizontal overlap in pixels.

  y:

  the vertical overlap in pixels.

  edges:

  if True, then the edge tiles will exclude the overlap distance. If unset or False, the edge tiles are full size.

  The overlap is conceptually split between the two sides of the tile. This is only relevant to where overlap is reported or if edges is True

  As an example, suppose an image that is 8 pixels across (01234567) and a tile size of 5 is requested with an overlap of 4. If the edges option is False (the default), the following tiles are returned: 01234, 12345, 23456, 34567. Each tile reports its overlap, and the non-overlapped area of each tile is 012, 3, 4, 567. If the edges option is True, the tiles returned are: 012, 0123, 01234, 12345, 23456, 34567, 4567, 567, with the non-overlapped area of each as 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7.

• encoding – if format includes TILE_FORMAT_IMAGE, a valid PIL encoding (typically ‘PNG’, ‘JPEG’, or ‘TIFF’) or ‘TILED’ (identical to TIFF). Must also be in the TileOutputMimeTypes map.

• jpegQuality – the quality to use when encoding a JPEG.

• jpegSubsampling – the subsampling level to use when encoding a JPEG.

• tiffCompression – the compression format when encoding a TIFF. This is usually ‘raw’, ‘tiff_lzw’, ‘jpeg’, or ‘tiff_adobe_deflate’. Some of these are aliased: ‘none’, ‘lzw’, ‘deflate’.

• frame – the frame number within the tile source. None is the same as 0 for multi-frame sources.

• kwargs – optional arguments.

Yields:

an iterator that returns a dictionary as listed above.

tileIteratorAtAnotherScale(sourceRegion, sourceScale=None, targetScale=None, targetUnits=None, **kwargs)

This takes the same parameters and returns the same results as tileIterator, except instead of region and scale, it takes sourceRegion, sourceScale, targetScale, and targetUnits. These parameters are the same as convertRegionScale. See those two functions for parameter definitions.

Return a key for a tile source and function parameters that can be used as a unique cache key.

Parameters:

• args – arguments to add to the hash.

• kwaths – arguments to add to the hash.

Returns:

an RGBA numpy image which is exactly black or transparent white.

large_image.tilesource.tiledict module

class large_image.tilesource.tiledict.LazyTileDict(tileInfo, *args, **kwargs)

Bases: dict

Tiles returned from the tile iterator and dictionaries of information with actual image data in the ‘tile’ key and the format in the ‘format’ key. Since some applications need information about the tile but don’t need the image data, these two values are lazily computed. The LazyTileDict can be treated like a regular dictionary, except that when either of those two keys are first accessed, they will cause the image to be loaded and possibly converted to a PIL image and cropped.

Unless setFormat is called on the tile, tile images may always be returned as PIL images.

Create a LazyTileDict dictionary where there is enough information to load the tile image. ang and kwargs are as for the dict() class.

Parameters:

tileInfo – a dictionary of x, y, level, format, encoding, crop, and source, used for fetching the tile image.

release()

If the tile has been loaded, unload it. It can be loaded again. This is useful if you want to keep tiles available in memory but not their actual tile data.

setFormat(format, resample=False, imageKwargs=None)

Set a more restrictive output format for a tile, possibly also resizing it via resampling. If this is not called, the tile may either be returned as one of the specified formats or as a PIL image.

Parameters:

• format – a tuple or list of allowed formats. Formats are members of TILE_FORMAT_*. This will avoid converting images if they are in the desired output encoding (regardless of subparameters).

• resample – if not False or None, allow resampling. Once turned on, this cannot be turned off on the tile.

• imageKwargs – additional parameters that should be passed to _encodeImage.

large_image.tilesource.utilities module

class large_image.tilesource.utilities.ImageBytes(source: bytes, mimetype: str | None = None)

Bases: bytes

Wrapper class to make repr of image bytes better in ipython.

Display the number of bytes and, if known, the mimetype.

property mimetype

class large_image.tilesource.utilities.JSONDict(*args, **kwargs)

Bases: dict

Wrapper class to improve Jupyter repr of JSON-able dicts.

large_image.tilesource.utilities.addPILFormatsToOutputOptions()

Check PIL for available formats that be saved and add them to the lists of of available formats.

large_image.tilesource.utilities.dictToEtree(d, root=None)

Convert a dictionary in the style produced by etreeToDict back to an etree. Make an xml string via xml.etree.ElementTree.tostring(dictToEtree( dictionary), encoding=’utf8’, method=’xml’). Note that this function and etreeToDict are not perfect conversions; numerical values are quoted in xml. Plain key-value pairs are ambiguous whether they should be attributes or text values. Text fields are collected together.

Parameters:

d – a dictionary.

Prarm root:

the root node to attach this dictionary to.

Returns:

an etree.

large_image.tilesource.utilities.etreeToDict(t)

Convert an xml etree to a nested dictionary without schema names in the keys. If you have an xml string, this can be converted to a dictionary via xml.etree.etreeToDict(ElementTree.fromstring(xml_string)).

Parameters:

t – an etree.

Returns:

a python dictionary with the results.

large_image.tilesource.utilities.getAvailableNamedPalettes(includeColors=True, reduced=False)

Get a list of all named palettes that can be used with getPaletteColors.

Parameters:

• includeColors – if True, include named colors. If False, only include actual palettes.

• reduced – if True, exclude reversed palettes and palettes with fewer colors where a palette with the same basic name exists with more colors.

Returns:

a list of names.

large_image.tilesource.utilities.getPaletteColors(value)

Given a list or a name, return a list of colors in the form of a numpy array of RGBA. If a list, each entry is a color name resolvable by either PIL.ImageColor.getcolor, by matplotlib.colors, or a 3 or 4 element list or tuple of RGB(A) values on a scale of 0-1. If this is NOT a list, then, if it can be parsed as a color, it is treated as [‘#000’, <value>]. If that cannot be parsed, then it is assumed to be a named palette in palettable (such as viridis.Viridis_12) or a named palette in matplotlib (including plugins).

Parameters:

value – Either a list, a single color name, or a palette name. See above.

Returns:

a numpy array of RGBA value on the scale of [0-255].

large_image.tilesource.utilities.getTileFramesQuadInfo(metadata, options=None)

Compute what tile_frames need to be requested for a particular condition.

Options is a dictionary of:

format:

The compression and format for the texture. Defaults to {‘encoding’: ‘JPEG’, ‘jpegQuality’: 85, ‘jpegSubsampling’: 1}.

query:

Additional query options to add to the tile source, such as style.

frameBase:

(default 0) Starting frame number used. c/z/xy/z to step through that index length (0 to 1 less than the value), which is probably only useful for cache reporting or scheduling.

frameStride:

(default 1) Only use every frameStride frame of the image. c/z/xy/z to use that axis length.

frameGroup:

(default 1) If above 1 and multiple textures are used, each texture will have an even multiple of the group size number of frames. This helps control where texture loading transitions occur. c/z/xy/z to use that axis length.

frameGroupFactor:

(default 4) If frameGroup would reduce the size of the tile images beyond this factor, don’t use it.

frameGroupStride:

(default 1) If frameGroup is above 1 and multiple textures are used, then the frames are reordered based on this stride value. “auto” to use frameGroup / frameStride if that value is an integer.

maxTextureSize:

Limit the maximum texture size to a square of this size.

maxTextures:

(default 1) If more than one, allow multiple textures to increase the size of the individual frames. The number of textures will be capped by maxTotalTexturePixels as well as this number.

maxTotalTexturePixels:

(default 1073741824) Limit the maximum texture size and maximum number of textures so that the combined set does not exceed this number of pixels.

alignment:

(default 16) Individual frames are buffered to an alignment of this maxy pixels. If JPEG compression is used, this should be 8 for monochrome images or jpegs without subsampling, or 16 for jpegs with moderate subsampling to avoid compression artifacts from leaking between frames.

maxFrameSize:

If set, limit the maximum width and height of an individual frame to this value.

Parameters:

• metadata – the tile source metadata. Needs to contain sizeX, sizeY, tileWidth, tileHeight, and a list of frames.

• options – dictionary of options, as described above.

Returns:

a dictionary of values to use for making calls to tile_frames.

large_image.tilesource.utilities.histogramThreshold(histogram, threshold, fromMax=False)

Parameters:

• histogram – a histogram record for a specific channel.

• threshold – a value from 0 to 1.

• fromMax – if False, return values excluding the low end of the histogram; if True, return values from excluding the high end of the histogram.

Returns:

the value the excludes no more than the threshold from the specified end.

large_image.tilesource.utilities.isValidPalette(value)

Check if a value can be used as a palette.

Parameters:

value – Either a list, a single color name, or a palette name. See getPaletteColors.

Returns:

a boolean; true if the value can be used as a palette.

large_image.tilesource.utilities.nearPowerOfTwo(val1, val2, tolerance=0.02)

Check if two values are different by nearly a power of two.

Parameters:

• val1 – the first value to check.

• val2 – the second value to check.

• tolerance – the maximum difference in the log2 ratio’s mantissa.

Returns:

True if the valeus are nearly a power of two different from each other; false otherwise.

Module contents

class large_image.tilesource.FileTileSource(path, *args, **kwargs)

Bases: TileSource

Initialize the tile class. See the base class for other available parameters.

Parameters:

path – a filesystem path for the tile source.

classmethod canRead(path, *args, **kwargs)

Check if we can read the input. This takes the same parameters as __init__.

Returns:

True if this class can read the input. False if it cannot.

static getLRUHash(*args, **kwargs)

Return a string hash used as a key in the recently-used cache for tile sources.

Returns:

a string hash value.

exception large_image.tilesource.TileGeneralError

Bases: Exception

large_image.tilesource.TileGeneralException

alias of TileGeneralError

class large_image.tilesource.TileSource(encoding='JPEG', jpegQuality=95, jpegSubsampling=0, tiffCompression='raw', edge=False, style=None, *args, **kwargs)

Bases: object

Initialize the tile class.

Parameters:

• jpegQuality – when serving jpegs, use this quality.

• jpegSubsampling – when serving jpegs, use this subsampling (0 is full chroma, 1 is half, 2 is quarter).

• encoding – ‘JPEG’, ‘PNG’, ‘TIFF’, or ‘TILED’.

• edge – False to leave edge tiles whole, True or ‘crop’ to crop edge tiles, otherwise, an #rrggbb color to fill edges.

• tiffCompression – the compression format to use when encoding a TIFF.

• style –

  if None, use the default style for the file. Otherwise, this is a string with a json-encoded dictionary. The style can contain the following keys:

  band:

  if -1 or None, and if style is specified at all, the greyscale value is used. Otherwise, a 1-based numerical index into the channels of the image or a string that matches the interpretation of the band (‘red’, ‘green’, ‘blue’, ‘gray’, ‘alpha’). Note that ‘gray’ on an RGB or RGBA image will use the green band.

  frame:

  if specified, override the frame value for this band. When used as part of a bands list, this can be used to composite multiple frames together. It is most efficient if at least one band either doesn’t specify a frame parameter or specifies the same frame value as the primary query.

  framedelta:

  if specified and frame is not specified, override the frame value for this band by using the current frame plus this value.

  min:

  the value to map to the first palette value. Defaults to 0. ‘auto’ to use 0 if the reported minimum and maximum of the band are between [0, 255] or use the reported minimum otherwise. ‘min’ or ‘max’ to always uses the reported minimum or maximum. ‘full’ to always use 0.

  max:

  the value to map to the last palette value. Defaults to 255. ‘auto’ to use 0 if the reported minimum and maximum of the band are between [0, 255] or use the reported maximum otherwise. ‘min’ or ‘max’ to always uses the reported minimum or maximum. ‘full’ to use the maximum value of the base data type (either 1, 255, or 65535).

  palette:

  a list of two or more color strings, where color strings are of the form #RRGGBB, #RRGGBBAA, #RGB, #RGBA, or any string parseable by the PIL modules, or, if it is installed, byt matplotlib. Alternately, this can be a single color, which implies [‘#000’, <color>], or the name of a palettable paletter or, if available, a matplotlib palette.

  nodata:

  the value to use for missing data. null or unset to not use a nodata value.

  composite:

  either ‘lighten’ or ‘multiply’. Defaults to ‘lighten’ for all except the alpha band.

  clamp:

  either True to clamp (also called clip or crop) values outside of the [min, max] to the ends of the palette or False to make outside values transparent.

  dtype:

  convert the results to the specified numpy dtype. Normally, if a style is applied, the results are intermediately a float numpy array with a value range of [0,255]. If this is ‘uint16’, it will be cast to that and multiplied by 65535/255. If ‘float’, it will be divided by 255.

  axis:

  keep only the specified axis from the numpy intermediate results. This can be used to extract a single channel after compositing.

  Alternately, the style object can contain a single key of ‘bands’, which has a value which is a list of style dictionaries as above, excepting that each must have a band that is not -1. Bands are composited in the order listed. This base object may also contain the ‘dtype’ and ‘axis’ values.

classmethod canRead(*args, **kwargs)

Check if we can read the input. This takes the same parameters as __init__.

Returns:

True if this class can read the input. False if it cannot.

  size of the current tile before scaling.

  tile_magnification:

  magnification of the current tile before scaling.

  tile_mm_x, tile_mm_y:

  size of a pixel in a tile in millimeters before scaling.

  Note that scipy.misc.imresize uses PIL internally.

• region –

  a dictionary of optional values which specify the part of the image to process:

  left:

  the left edge (inclusive) of the region to process.

  top:

  the top edge (inclusive) of the region to process.

  right:

  the right edge (exclusive) of the region to process.

  bottom:

  the bottom edge (exclusive) of the region to process.

  width:

  the width of the region to process.

  height:

  the height of the region to process.

  units:

  either ‘base_pixels’ (default), ‘pixels’, ‘mm’, or ‘fraction’. base_pixels are in maximum resolution pixels. pixels is in the specified magnification pixels. mm is in the specified magnification scale. fraction is a scale of 0 to 1. pixels and mm are only available if the magnification and mm per pixel are defined for the image.

• output –

  a dictionary of optional values which specify the size of the output.

  maxWidth:

  maximum width in pixels. If either maxWidth or maxHeight is specified, magnification, mm_x, and mm_y are ignored.

  maxHeight:

  maximum height in pixels.

• scale –

  a dictionary of optional values which specify the scale of the region and / or output. This applies to region if pixels or mm are used for inits. It applies to output if neither output maxWidth nor maxHeight is specified.

  magnification:

  the magnification ratio. Only used if maxWidth and maxHeight are not specified or None.

  mm_x:

  the horizontal size of a pixel in millimeters.

  mm_y:

  the vertical size of a pixel in millimeters.

  exact:

  if True, only a level that matches exactly will be returned. This is only applied if magnification, mm_x, or mm_y is used.

• tile_position – if present, either a number to only yield the (tile_position)th tile [0 to (xmax - min) * (ymax - ymin)) that the iterator would yield, or a dictionary of {region_x, region_y} to yield that tile, where 0, 0 is the first tile yielded, and xmax - xmin - 1, ymax - ymin - 1 is the last tile yielded, or a dictionary of {level_x, level_y} to yield that specific tile if it is in the region.

• tile_size –

  if present, retile the output to the specified tile size. If only width or only height is specified, the resultant tiles will be square. This is a dictionary containing at least one of:

  width:

  the desired tile width.

  height:

  the desired tile height.

• tile_overlap –

  if present, retile the output adding a symmetric overlap to the tiles. If either x or y is not specified, it defaults to zero. The overlap does not change the tile size, only the stride of the tiles. This is a dictionary containing:

  x:

  the horizontal overlap in pixels.

  y:

  the vertical overlap in pixels.

  edges:

  if True, then the edge tiles will exclude the overlap distance. If unset or False, the edge tiles are full size.

  The overlap is conceptually split between the two sides of the tile. This is only relevant to where overlap is reported or if edges is True

  As an example, suppose an image that is 8 pixels across (01234567) and a tile size of 5 is requested with an overlap of 4. If the edges option is False (the default), the following tiles are returned: 01234, 12345, 23456, 34567. Each tile reports its overlap, and the non-overlapped area of each tile is 012, 3, 4, 567. If the edges option is True, the tiles returned are: 012, 0123, 01234, 12345, 23456, 34567, 4567, 567, with the non-overlapped area of each as 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7.

• encoding – if format includes TILE_FORMAT_IMAGE, a valid PIL encoding (typically ‘PNG’, ‘JPEG’, or ‘TIFF’) or ‘TILED’ (identical to TIFF). Must also be in the TileOutputMimeTypes map.

• jpegQuality – the quality to use when encoding a JPEG.

• jpegSubsampling – the subsampling level to use when encoding a JPEG.

• tiffCompression – the compression format when encoding a TIFF. This is usually ‘raw’, ‘tiff_lzw’, ‘jpeg’, or ‘tiff_adobe_deflate’. Some of these are aliased: ‘none’, ‘lzw’, ‘deflate’.

• frame – the frame number within the tile source. None is the same as 0 for multi-frame sources.

• kwargs – optional arguments.

Yields:

an iterator that returns a dictionary as listed above.

tileIteratorAtAnotherScale(sourceRegion, sourceScale=None, targetScale=None, targetUnits=None, **kwargs)

This takes the same parameters and returns the same results as tileIterator, except instead of region and scale, it takes sourceRegion, sourceScale, targetScale, and targetUnits. These parameters are the same as convertRegionScale. See those two functions for parameter definitions.

wrapKey(*args, **kwargs)

Return a key for a tile source and function parameters that can be used as a unique cache key.

Parameters:

• args – arguments to add to the hash.

• kwaths – arguments to add to the hash.

Returns:

a cache key.

exception large_image.tilesource.TileSourceAssetstoreError

large_image.tilesource.canRead(*args, **kwargs)

Check if large_image can read a path or uri.

Returns:

True if any appropriate source reports it can read the path or uri.

large_image.tilesource.dictToEtree(d, root=None)

Convert a dictionary in the style produced by etreeToDict back to an etree. Make an xml string via xml.etree.ElementTree.tostring(dictToEtree( dictionary), encoding=’utf8’, method=’xml’). Note that this function and etreeToDict are not perfect conversions; numerical values are quoted in xml. Plain key-value pairs are ambiguous whether they should be attributes or text values. Text fields are collected together.

Parameters:

d – a dictionary.

Prarm root:

the root node to attach this dictionary to.

Returns:

an etree.

large_image.tilesource.etreeToDict(t)

Convert an xml etree to a nested dictionary without schema names in the keys. If you have an xml string, this can be converted to a dictionary via xml.etree.etreeToDict(ElementTree.fromstring(xml_string)).

Parameters:

t – an etree.

Returns:

a python dictionary with the results.

large_image.tilesource.getSourceNameFromDict(availableSources, pathOrUri, mimeType=None, *args, **kwargs)

Get a tile source based on a ordered dictionary of known sources and a path name or URI. Additional parameters are passed to the tile source and can be used for properties such as encoding.

Parameters:

• availableSources – an ordered dictionary of sources to try.

• pathOrUri – either a file path or a fixed source via large_image://<source>.

• mimeType – the mimetype of the file, if known.

Returns:

the name of a tile source that can read the input, or None if there is no such source.

large_image.tilesource.getTileSource(*args, **kwargs)

Get a tilesource using the known sources. If tile sources have not yet been loaded, load them.

Returns:

A tilesource for the passed arguments.

large_image.tilesource.nearPowerOfTwo(val1, val2, tolerance=0.02)

Check if two values are different by nearly a power of two.

Parameters:

• val1 – the first value to check.

• val2 – the second value to check.

• tolerance – the maximum difference in the log2 ratio’s mantissa.

Returns:

True if the valeus are nearly a power of two different from each other; false otherwise.

large_image.tilesource.new(*args, **kwargs)

Create a new image.

TODO: add specific arguments to choose a source based on criteria.

large_image.tilesource.open(*args, **kwargs)

Alternate name of getTileSource.

Get a tilesource using the known sources. If tile sources have not yet been loaded, load them.

Returns:

A tilesource for the passed arguments.
