-Batch processing with pathlib

-This example uses Pillow together with pathlib, in order to reduce the quality of all PNG images in a folder:

-    from pathlib import Path
-    from PIL import Image

-    def compress_image(filepath):
-        file = filepath.stem

-                img = img.convert("RGB")
-            img.save(file + ".jpg", "JPEG", optimize=True, quality=80)
-        return

+Batch processing
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+Operations can be applied to multiple image files. For example, all PNG images
+in the current directory can be saved as JPEGs at reduced quality.
+
+::
+
+    import os
+    from PIL import Image
+
+
+    def compress_image(source_path, dest_path):
+        with Image.open(source_path) as img:
+            if img.mode != "RGB":
+                img = img.convert("RGB")
+            img.save(dest_path, "JPEG", optimize=True, quality=80)
+
+
+    paths = glob.glob(".png")
+    for path in paths:
+        compress_image(path, path[:-4] + ".jpg")
+
+Since images can also be opened from a ``Path`` from the ``pathlib`` module,
+the example could be modified to use ``pathlib`` instead of ``os``.
+
+::
+
+    from pathlib import Path
+
+    paths = Path(".").glob("*.png")
+    for path in paths:
+        compress_image(path, filepath.stem + ".jpg")
