# BlurHash-AVIF
A Python library extending the Python BlurHash implementation to generate BlurHash strings and PNG data URLs for AVIF images.
**Disclaimer:** This is an unofficial extension and has no affiliation with the original BlurHash developers. All credit for the BlurHash concept and implementation goes to its creators.

## Installation
Install the library using pip:
```bash
pip install blurhash-avif
```
## Features
- Generate BlurHash strings from AVIF images
- Create base64-encoded PNG data URLs from AVIF images
- Maintain image aspect ratio during processing
- Support RGB mode images
- Optimize image loading for improved website performance
## Requirements
- Python 3.x
- Pillow (PIL) library with AVIF support
- NumPy library
- base64 library
- blurhash library
## Usage
The library provides six main functions:
1. `generate_blurhash_from_avif`: Create a BlurHash string from an AVIF image.
2. `generate_png_data_url_from_avif`: Generate a base64-encoded PNG data URL from an AVIF image.
3. `generate_blurhash_and_data_url_from_avif`: Produce both a BlurHash string and a PNG data URL.
4. `batch_generate_blurhash_from_avif`: Generates BlurHash strings for all AVIF images in a given directory.
5. `batch_generate_png_data_url_from_avif`: Generates base64-encoded PNG data URLs for all AVIF images in a given directory.
6. `batch_generate_blurhash_and_data_url_from_avif`: Generates BlurHash strings and base64-encoded PNG data URLs for all AVIF images in a given directory.
### Example Usage
```python
from blurhash_avif import (
generate_blurhash_from_avif,
generate_png_data_url_from_avif,
generate_blurhash_and_data_url_from_avif,
batch_generate_blurhash_from_avif,
batch_generate_png_data_url_from_avif,
batch_generate_blurhash_and_data_url_from_avif,
)
# Path to your AVIF file
avif_path = "path/to/your/image.avif"
# Generate BlurHash string
blurhash = generate_blurhash_from_avif(avif_path)
if blurhash:
print(f"BlurHash: {blurhash}")
else:
print("Failed to generate BlurHash")
# Generate PNG data URL
data_url = generate_png_data_url_from_avif(avif_path)
if data_url:
print(f"PNG Data URL: {data_url[:50]}...") # Print first 50 characters
else:
print("Failed to generate PNG Data URL")
# Generate both BlurHash and PNG data URL
blurhash, data_url = generate_blurhash_and_data_url_from_avif(avif_path)
if blurhash and data_url:
print(f"BlurHash: {blurhash}")
print(f"PNG Data URL: {data_url[:50]}...") # Print first 50 characters
else:
print("Failed to generate BlurHash and PNG Data URL")
# Batch generate BlurHash strings
directory = "path/to/your/images"
blurhash_dict = batch_generate_blurhash_from_avif(directory)
print(blurhash_dict)
# Batch generate PNG data URLs
data_url_dict = batch_generate_png_data_url_from_avif(directory)
print(data_url_dict)
# Batch generate BlurHash strings and PNG data URLs
blurhash_dict, data_url_dict = batch_generate_blurhash_and_data_url_from_avif(directory)
print(blurhash_dict)
print(data_url_dict)
```
## Troubleshooting
If you encounter issues with Pillow's AVIF support, try:
```bash
pip uninstall pillow
pip install "pillow[avif]"
```
you man need to install the `aviflib` library.
To install the required `aviflib` library, follow these steps:
**On macOS (using Homebrew):**
```bash
brew install libavif
```
**On Ubuntu/Debian:**
```bash
sudo apt-get install libavif-dev
```
**On windows**
```bash
pip install aom
```
or
**On windows (vcpkg)**
```bash
vcpkg install libavif
```
