An encoded QOI image is usually around 10--30% larger than a decently optimized PNG image. QOI outperforms simpler PNG encoders in compression ratio and performance. QOI images are typically 20% smaller than PNGs written with stbi_image. Encoding is 25-50x faster and decoding is 3-4x faster than stbi_image or libpng. -- Synopsis // Define `QOI_IMPLEMENTATION` in *one* C/C++ file before including this // library to create the implementation. #define QOI_IMPLEMENTATION #include "qoi.h" // Encode and store an RGBA buffer to the file system. The qoi_desc describes // the input pixel data. qoi_write("image_new.qoi", rgba_pixels, &(qoi_desc){ .width = 1920, .height = 1080, .channels = 4, .colorspace = QOI_SRGB }); // Load and decode a QOI image from the file system into a 32bbp RGBA buffer. // The qoi_desc struct will be filled with the width, height, number of channels // and colorspace read from the file header. qoi_desc desc; void *rgba_pixels = qoi_read("image.qoi", &desc, 4); -- Documentation This library provides the following functions; - qoi_read -- read and decode a QOI file - qoi_decode -- decode the raw bytes of a QOI image from memory - qoi_write -- encode and write a QOI file - qoi_encode -- encode an rgba buffer into a QOI image in memory See the function declaration below for the signature and more information. If you don't want/need the qoi_read and qoi_write functions, you can define QOI_NO_STDIO before including this library. This library uses malloc() and free(). To supply your own malloc implementation you can define QOI_MALLOC and QOI_FREE before including this library. -- Data Format A QOI file has a 14 byte header, followed by any number of data "chunks". struct qoi_header_t { char magic[4]; // magic bytes "qoif" uint32_t width; // image width in pixels (BE) uint32_t height; // image height in pixels (BE) uint8_t channels; // must be 3 (RGB) or 4 (RGBA) uint8_t colorspace; // a bitmap 0000rgba where // - a zero bit indicates sRGBA, // - a one bit indicates linear (user interpreted) // colorspace for each channel }; The decoder and encoder start with {r: 0, g: 0, b: 0, a: 255} as the previous pixel value. Pixels are either encoded as - a run of the previous pixel - an index into a previously seen pixel - a difference to the previous pixel value in r,g,b,a - full r,g,b,a values A running array[64] of previously seen pixel values is maintained by the encoder and decoder. Each pixel that is seen by the encoder and decoder is put into this array at the position (r^g^b^a) % 64. In the encoder, if the pixel value at this index matches the current pixel, this index position is written to the stream. Each chunk starts with a 2, 3 or 4 bit tag, followed by a number of data bits. The bit length of chunks is divisible by 8 - i.e. all chunks are byte aligned. All values encoded in these data bits have the most significant bit (MSB) on the left. The possible chunks are: - QOI_INDEX ------------- | Byte[0] | | 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0 | |-------+-----------------| | 0 0 | index | 2-bit tag b00 6-bit index into the color index array: 0..63 - QOI_RUN_8 ------------- | Byte[0] | | 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0 | |----------+--------------| | 0 1 0 | run | 3-bit tag b010 5-bit run-length repeating the previous pixel: 1..32 - QOI_RUN_16 -------------------------------------- | Byte[0] | Byte[1] | | 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0 | 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0 | |----------+----------------------------------------| | 0 1 1 | run | 3-bit tag b011 13-bit run-length repeating the previous pixel: 33..8224 - QOI_DIFF_8 ------------ | Byte[0] | | 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0 | |-------+-----+-----+-----| | 1 0 | dr | db | bg | 2-bit tag b10 2-bit red channel difference from the previous pixel between -2..1 2-bit green channel difference from the previous pixel between -2..1 2-bit blue channel difference from the previous pixel between -2..1 The difference to the current channel values are using a wraparound operation, so "1 - 2" will result in 255, while "255 + 1" will result in 0. - QOI_DIFF_16 ------------------------------------- | Byte[0] | Byte[1] | | 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0 | 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0 | |----------+--------------|------------ +-----------| | 1 1 0 | red diff | green diff | blue diff | 3-bit tag b110 5-bit red channel difference from the previous pixel between -16..15 4-bit green channel difference from the previous pixel between -8..7 4-bit blue channel difference from the previous pixel between -8..7 The difference to the current channel values are using a wraparound operation, so "10 - 13" will result in 253, while "250 + 7" will result in 1. - QOI_DIFF_24 --------------------------------------------------------------- | Byte[0] | Byte[1] | Byte[2] | | 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0 | 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0 | 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0 | |-------------+----------------+--------------+----------------+--------------| | 1 1 1 0 | red diff | green diff | blue diff | alpha diff | 4-bit tag b1110 5-bit red channel difference from the previous pixel between -16..15 5-bit green channel difference from the previous pixel between -16..15 5-bit blue channel difference from the previous pixel between -16..15 5-bit alpha channel difference from the previous pixel between -16..15 The difference to the current channel values are using a wraparound operation, so "10 - 13" will result in 253, while "250 + 7" will result in 1. - QOI_COLOR ------------- | Byte[0] | | 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0 | |-------------+--+--+--+--| | 1 1 1 1 |hr|hg|hb|ha| 4-bit tag b1111 1-bit red byte follows 1-bit green byte follows 1-bit blue byte follows 1-bit alpha byte follows For each set bit hr, hg, hb and ha another byte follows in this order. If such a byte follows, it will replace the current color channel value with the value of this byte. The byte stream is padded at the end with 4 zero bytes. Size the longest chunk we can encounter is 5 bytes (QOI_COLOR with RGBA set), with this padding we just have to check for an overrun once per decode loop iteration. */ // ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- // Header - Public functions #ifndef QOI_H #define QOI_H #ifdef __cplusplus extern "C" { #endif // A pointer to qoi_desc struct has to be supplied to all of qoi's functions.
