Class: Vips::TargetCustom

Inherits:
Target show all
Defined in:
lib/vips/targetcustom.rb

Overview

A target you can attach action signal handlers to to implememt custom output types.

For example:

file = File.open "some/file/name", "wb"
target = Vips::TargetCustom.new
target.on_write { |bytes| file.write bytes }
image.write_to_target target, ".png"

(just an example -- of course in practice you'd use Vips::Target.new_to_file to write to a named file)

def on_finish &block
  signal_connect "finish" do 
    block.call()
  end
end

#on_write {|bytes| ... } ⇒ Object

The block is executed to write data to the source. The interface is exactly as IO::write, ie. it should write the string and return the number of bytes written.

Yield Parameters:

  • bytes (String) —

    Write these bytes to the file

Yield Returns:

  • (Integer) —

    The number of bytes written, or -1 on error
