shrink_input_images
- wss_tools.quip.main.shrink_input_images(images, outpath='', new_width=500, n_cores=1, use_dq=False, **kwargs)[source]
Shrink input images for mosaic, if necessary.
The shrunken images are not deleted on exit; User has to remove them manually.
- Parameters
- imageslist
List of input image files.
- outpathstr
Output directory. This must be different from input directory because image names remain the same.
- new_widthint
Width of the shrunken image. Height will be scaled accordingly. Because this will be converted into a zoom factor for
scale_image(), requested width might not be the exact one that you get but should be close.- n_coresint
Number of CPU cores to use.
- use_dqbool
Use
scale_image_with_dq()instead ofscale_image().- kwargsdict
Optional keywords for the
stgingafunction chosen usinguse_dqkeyword.
- Returns
- outlistlist
List of images to use. If shrunken, the list will include the new image in the
outpath(same filename). If the input is already small enough, shrinking process is skipped and the list will contain the input image instead.
