Bitmap/Read an image through a pipe
This task is the opposite of the PPM conversion through a pipe. In this task, using a delegate tool (like cjpeg, one of the netpbm package, or convert of the ImageMagick package) we read an image file and load it into the data storage type defined here. We can also use the code from Read ppm file, so that we can use PPM format like a (natural) bridge between the foreign image format and our simple data storage.
You are encouraged to solve this task according to the task description, using any language you may know.
ATS
I use the magick
command from ImageMagick. You need all the source files from Bitmap#ATS, Bitmap/Read_a_PPM_file#ATS, and Bitmap/Write_a_PPM_file#ATS. (You do not need the files from Grayscale_image#ATS.)
Because I wrote this program by modifying Bitmap/PPM_conversion_through_a_pipe#ATS, it both reads and writes the file by piping through the magick
command of ImageMagick. The comments at the top of the earlier program thus apply doubly here.
(* I both read AND write the image through pipes connected to
ImageMagick. One can also pass options and such but I won't go into
the details. *)

(* There is support for pipe-I/O in libats/libc, but I cannot (at
least when in a hurry) figure out how it is supposed to be
used. So, as elsewhere in the "raster graphics operations"
category, what is not in the prelude itself I implement with the
foreign function interfaces. :) Using FFI is a typical part of ATS
programming, and one should get used to doing it.

Notice that, when I did not specify an output file, I got a PPM (PPM being what was sent through the output pipe to magick). Both times, though, the input pipe converts a TIFF image to PPM, which then is read into the internal pixmap
type.
Here is the JPEG that was outputted:

C
Here I've used convert by ImageMagick. It is up to the program to understand the source file type; in this way, we can read theoretically any image format ImageMagick can handle. The get_ppm function defined in Read ppm file is used.
image read_image(const char *name);
#include "imglib.h"
#define MAXCMDBUF 100
#define MAXFILENAMELEN 256
#define MAXFULLCMDBUF (MAXCMDBUF + MAXFILENAMELEN)
image read_image(const char *name)
{
FILE *pipe;
char buf[MAXFULLCMDBUF];
image im;
FILE *test = fopen(name, "r");
if ( test == NULL ) {
fprintf(stderr, "cannot open file %s\n", name);
return NULL;
}
fclose(test);
snprintf(buf, MAXFULLCMDBUF, "convert \"%s\" ppm:-", name);
pipe = popen(buf, "r");
if ( pipe != NULL )
{
im = get_ppm(pipe);
pclose(pipe);
return im;
}
return NULL;
}
Go
This example uses convert to convert the test image for the flood fill task. It reads through the pipe as required for this task, then writes as a .ppm file convenient for the flood fill task.
package main
// Files required to build supporting package raster are found in:
// * Bitmap
// * Read a PPM file
// * Write a PPM file
import (
"log"
"os/exec"
"raster"
)
func main() {
c := exec.Command("convert", "Unfilledcirc.png", "-depth", "1", "ppm:-")
pipe, err := c.StdoutPipe()
if err != nil {
log.Fatal(err)
}
if err = c.Start(); err != nil {
log.Fatal(err)
}
b, err := raster.ReadPpmFrom(pipe)
if err != nil {
log.Fatal(err)
}
if err = b.WritePpmFile("Unfilledcirc.ppm"); err != nil {
log.Fatal(err)
}
}

The code for this is similar to that for the Bitmap/Read a PPM file task except that the .jpg file is converted via a pipe to .ppm format using the ImageMagick 'convert' tool and stored in a BasicBitmapStorage object. It is then converted to grayscale and saved back to disk as a .jpg file.

Lua
Uses Bitmap class here, with an RGB tuple pixel representation, and the rudimentary PPM support here, and the Lenna image here.
First, the loadPPM()
method is altered to allow passing an existing file handle:
function Bitmap:loadPPM(filename, fp)
if not fp then fp = io.open(filename, "rb") end
if not fp then return end
local head, width, height, depth, tail = fp:read("*line", "*number", "*number", "*number", "*line")
self.width, self.height = width, height
self:alloc()
for y = 1, self.height do
for x = 1, self.width do
self.pixels[y][x] = { string.byte(fp:read(1)), string.byte(fp:read(1)), string.byte(fp:read(1)) }
end
end
fp:close()
end
Then, for the actual "read-from-pipe" task, a Lua environment that supports io.popen()
is required:
local bitmap = Bitmap(0,0)
fp = io.popen("magick Lenna100.jpg ppm:-", "rb")
bitmap:loadPPM(nil, fp)
bitmap:savePPM("Lenna100.ppm") -- just as "proof"
Mathematica /Wolfram Language
Based off the Julia program.

Nim
Using "jpegtopnm" from Netpbm suite. Input is a JPEG file and result (the PPM file) is sent to stdout. The procedure "readPPM" reads directly from the stream and build the image container.
import bitmap
import osproc
import ppm_read
import streams
# Launch Netpbm "jpegtopnm".
# Input is taken from "input.jpeg" and result sent to stdout.
let p = startProcess("jpegtopnm", args = ["input.jpeg"], options = {poUsePath})
let stream = FileStream(p.outputStream())
let image = stream.readPPM()
echo image.w, " ", image.h

OCaml
The read_ppm
function of the page read ppm file and used by the code below would need to be changed to take as parameter an input channel instead of the filename.
let read_image ~filename =
if not(Sys.file_exists filename)
then failwith(Printf.sprintf "the file %s does not exist" filename);
let cmd = Printf.sprintf "convert \"%s\" ppm:-" filename in
let ic, oc = Unix.open_process cmd in

As DOME doesn't have a method for calling an external process (ImageMagick in this case), we re-use the small plug-in (pipeconv.so) we created in the 'PPM conversion through a pipe' task to add this functionality.
We can now use this plug-in in the following script which calls ImageMagick to convert the output_piped.jpg file to a ppm file so that we can load the latter, convert it to a gray scale image, display it and save it to a .jpg file.
