# QOI - The “Quite OK Image Format” for fast, lossless image compression
|
|
|
|
Single-file MIT licensed library for C/C++
|
|
|
|
See [qoi.h](https://github.com/phoboslab/qoi/blob/master/qoi.h) for
|
|
the documentation and format specification.
|
|
|
|
More info at https://qoiformat.org
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Why?
|
|
|
|
Compared to stb_image and stb_image_write QOI offers 20x-50x faster encoding,
|
|
3x-4x faster decoding and 20% better compression. It's also stupidly simple and
|
|
fits in about 300 lines of C.
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Example Usage
|
|
|
|
- [qoiconv.c](https://github.com/phoboslab/qoi/blob/master/qoiconv.c)
|
|
converts between png <> qoi
|
|
- [qoibench.c](https://github.com/phoboslab/qoi/blob/master/qoibench.c)
|
|
a simple wrapper to benchmark stbi, libpng and qoi
|
|
|
|
|
|
## MIME Type, File Extension
|
|
|
|
The recommended MIME type for QOI images is `image/qoi`. While QOI is not yet
|
|
officially registered with IANA, I believe QOI has found enough adoption to
|
|
prevent any future image format from choosing the same name, thus making a
|
|
MIME type collision highly unlikely ([see #167](https://github.com/phoboslab/qoi/issues/167)).
|
|
|
|
The recommended file extension for QOI images is `.qoi`
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Limitations
|
|
|
|
The QOI file format allows for huge images with up to 18 exa-pixels. A streaming
|
|
en-/decoder can handle these with minimal RAM requirements, assuming there is
|
|
enough storage space.
|
|
|
|
This particular implementation of QOI however is limited to images with a
|
|
maximum size of 400 million pixels. It will safely refuse to en-/decode anything
|
|
larger than that. This is not a streaming en-/decoder. It loads the whole image
|
|
file into RAM before doing any work and is not extensively optimized for
|
|
performance (but it's still very fast).
|
|
|
|
If this is a limitation for your use case, please look into any of the other
|
|
implementations listed below.
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Improvements, New Versions and Contributing
|
|
|
|
The QOI format has been finalized. It was a conscious decision to **not** have a
|
|
version number in the file header. If you have a working QOI implementation today,
|
|
you can rest assured that it will be compatible with all QOI files tomorrow.
|
|
|
|
There are a lot of interesting ideas for a successor of QOI, but none of these will
|
|
be implemented here. That doesn't mean you shouldn't experiment with QOI, but please
|
|
be aware that pull requests that change the format will not be accepted.
|
|
|
|
Likewise, pull requests for performance improvements will probably not be accepted
|
|
either, as this "reference implementation" tries to be as easy to read as possible.
