AuroraLib.Pixel.Formats

Provides support for various image and texture file formats built on top of AuroraLib.Pixel. The library provides efficient format support while preserving loaded images and storing their pixel data in native image structures.

AuroraLib.Pixel.Formats

Provides support for common image and texture formats.

NuGet Package

Format Description
PNG Portable Network Graphics image format.
BMP Windows Bitmap image format.
DDS DirectDraw Surface texture format, commonly used for textures.

Note: All supported formats can be both read and written. BC6 and BC7 texture formats are currently not supported.

AuroraLib.Pixel.Formats.Dolphin

Provides support for image and texture formats used by Nintendo's GameCube and Wii software. The also supports generating Dolphin texture hashes.

NuGet Package

Format Description
BTI Nintendo Binary Texture Image for GameCube & Wii.
TPL Nintendo Texture Palette Library for GameCube & Wii.
TXE Nintendo Dolphin texture format used by Pikmin.

Note: All supported formats can be both read and written. Texture formats that contain sampling information preserve this information in the image metadata.

The Dolphin texture hash is automatically stored in the image metadata when a supported Dolphin texture is loaded.

using IImage image = new BTI().ReadImage("texture.bti");

if (image.Metadata?.Text.TryGetValue("DolphinHash", out string? hash) == true)
{
    Console.WriteLine(hash);
}

Example

Load an Image Using a Specific Image Format

	using IImage image = new PNG().ReadImage("image.png");

Save an Image Using a Specific Image Format

	using var image = new MemoryImage<RGB565>(10, 10);
	new PNG().WriteImage(image, "image.png");

Check If a File Matches a Specific Image Format

	using FileStream source = File.OpenRead("image.png");
	bool isPng = PNG.IsMatchStatic(source);

Load Multiple Images from an Image Container

	List<IImage> images = new TPL().ReadImages("image.tpl");

Automatically Detect a Supported Image Format

FormatDictionary formats = new FormatDictionary(new Assembly[]
{
    typeof(PNG).Assembly, // Base formats assembly
    typeof(BTI).Assembly, // Dolphin formats assembly
});

using FileStream source = new("input.dat", FileMode.Open, FileAccess.Read, FileShare.Read);
ReadOnlySpan<char> fileName = Path.GetFileName("input.dat");

// Identify the image format
if (formats.Identify(source, fileName, out IFormatInfo format) && format.Class != null)
{
    // Create an instance of the detected format
    var instance = format.CreateInstance();

    if (instance is IImageDecoder decoder)
    {
        using IImage image = decoder.ReadImage(source);
    }
	else if (instance is IImageContainerFormat containerDecoder)
	{
		List<IImage> images = containerDecoder.ReadImages(source);
	}
}
