Build instructions (all platforms)
--------------------------------------------------------------------
For a list of changes in this release, see the CHANGES document.
0. If you're in a hurry, try this:
$ tar xvfz Imaging-1.1.7.tar.gz
$ cd Imaging-1.1.7
$ python setup.py install
If you prefer to know what you're doing, read on.
1. Prerequisites.
If you need any of the features described below, make sure you
have the necessary libraries before building PIL.
feature library
-----------------------------------------------------------------
JPEG support libjpeg (6a or 6b)
http://www.ijg.org
http://www.ijg.org/files/jpegsrc.v6b.tar.gz
ftp://ftp.uu.net/graphics/jpeg/
PNG support zlib (1.2.3 or later is recommended)
http://www.gzip.org/zlib/
OpenType/TrueType freetype2 (2.3.9 or later is recommended)
support
http://www.freetype.org
http://freetype.sourceforge.net
CMS support littleCMS (1.1.5 or later is recommended)
support
http://www.littlecms.com/
If you have a recent Linux version, the libraries provided with the
operating system usually work just fine. If some library is
missing, installing a prebuilt version (jpeg-devel, zlib-devel,
etc) is usually easier than building from source. For example, for
Ubuntu 9.10 (karmic), you can install the following libraries:
sudo apt-get install libjpeg62-dev
sudo apt-get install zlib1g-dev
sudo apt-get install libfreetype6-dev
sudo apt-get install liblcms1-dev
If you're using Mac OS X, you can use the 'fink' tool to install
missing libraries (also see the Mac OS X section below).
Similar tools are available for many other platforms.
2. To build under Python 1.5.2, you need to install the stand-alone
version of the distutils library:
http://www.python.org/sigs/distutils-sig/download.html
You can fetch distutils 1.0.2 from the Python source repository:
svn export http://svn.python.org/projects/python/tags/Distutils-1_0_2/Lib/distutils/
For newer releases, the distutils library is included in the
Python standard library.
NOTE: Version 1.1.7 is not fully compatible with 1.5.2. Some
more recent additions to the library may not work, but the core
functionality is available.
3. If you didn't build Python from sources, make sure you have
Python's build support files on your machine. If you've down-
loaded a prebuilt package (e.g. a Linux RPM), you probably
need additional developer packages. Look for packages named
"python-dev", "python-devel", or similar. For example, for
Ubuntu 9.10 (karmic), use the following command:
sudo apt-get install python-dev
4. When you have everything you need, unpack the PIL distribution
(the file Imaging-1.1.7.tar.gz) in a suitable work directory:
$ cd MyExtensions # example
$ gunzip Imaging-1.1.7.tar.gz
$ tar xvf Imaging-1.1.7.tar
5. Build the library. We recommend that you do an in-place build,
and run the self test before installing.
$ cd Imaging-1.1.7
$ python setup.py build_ext -i
$ python selftest.py
During the build process, the setup.py will display a summary
report that lists what external components it found. The self-
test will display a similar report, with what external components
the tests found in the actual build files:
----------------------------------------------------------------
PIL 1.1.7 SETUP SUMMARY
----------------------------------------------------------------
*** TKINTER support not available (Tcl/Tk 8.5 libraries needed)
--- JPEG support available
--- ZLIB (PNG/ZIP) support available
--- FREETYPE support available
----------------------------------------------------------------
Make sure that the optional components you need are included.
If the build script won't find a given component, you can edit the
setup.py file and set the appropriate ROOT variable. For details,
see instructions in the file.
If the build script finds the component, but the tests cannot
identify it, try rebuilding *all* modules:
$ python setup.py clean
$ python setup.py build_ext -i
6. If the setup.py and selftest.py commands finish without any
errors, you're ready to install the library:
$ python setup.py install
(depending on how Python has been installed on your machine,
you might have to log in as a superuser to run the 'install'
command, or use the 'sudo' command to run 'install'.)
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Additional notes for Mac OS X
--------------------------------------------------------------------
On Mac OS X you will usually install additional software such as
libjpeg or freetype with the "fink" tool, and then it ends up in
"/sw". If you have installed the libraries elsewhere, you may have
to tweak the "setup.py" file before building.
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Additional notes for Windows
--------------------------------------------------------------------
On Windows, you need to tweak the ROOT settings in the "setup.py"
file, to make it find the external libraries. See comments in the
file for details.
Make sure to build PIL and the external libraries with the same
runtime linking options as was used for the Python interpreter
(usually /MD, under Visual Studio).
Note that most Python distributions for Windows include libraries
compiled for Microsoft Visual Studio. You can get the free Express
edition of Visual Studio from:
http://www.microsoft.com/Express/
To build extensions using other tool chains, see the "Using
non-Microsoft compilers on Windows" section in the distutils handbook:
http://www.python.org/doc/current/inst/non-ms-compilers.html
For additional information on how to build extensions using the
popular MinGW compiler, see:
http://mingw.org (compiler)
http://sebsauvage.net/python/mingw.html (build instructions)
http://sourceforge.net/projects/gnuwin32 (prebuilt libraries)

Goals
-----
The fork authors' goal is to foster active development of PIL through:
- Continuous integration testing via `Travis CI`_
- Publicized development activity on `GitHub`_
- Regular releases to the `Python Package Index`_
- Solicitation for community contributions and involvement on `Image-SIG`_

.. _GitHub: https://github.com/python-imaging/Pillow
.. _Python Package Index: https://pypi.python.org/pypi/Pillow
.. _Image-SIG: http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/image-sig
Why a fork?
-----------
PIL is not setuptools compatible. Please see `this Image-SIG post`_ for a more
detailed explanation. Also, PIL's current bi-yearly (or greater) release
schedule is too infrequent to accomodate the large number and frequency of
issues reported.

Installation
============
.. warning:: PIL and Pillow currently cannot co-exist in the same environment.
If you want to use Pillow, please remove PIL first.
Simple installation
-------------------
.. note::
The following instructions will install Pillow with support for most formats.
See :ref:`external-libraries` for the features you would gain by installing
the external libraries first. This page probably also include specific
instructions for your platform.
You can install Pillow with ``pip``::
$ pip install Pillow
Or :command:`easy_install` (for installing `Python Eggs
<http://peak.telecommunity.com/DevCenter/PythonEggs>`_, as pip does not support
them)::
$ easy_install Pillow
Or download the `compressed archive from PyPI`_, extract it, and inside it
run::
$ python setup.py install
.. _compressed archive from PyPI: https://pypi.python.org/pypi/Pillow
.. _external-libraries:
External libraries
------------------
Many of Pillow's features require external libraries:
* **libjpeg** provides JPEG functionality.
* Pillow has been tested with libjpeg versions **6b**, **8**, and **9**
* **zlib** provides access to compressed PNGs
* **libtiff** provides group4 tiff functionality
* Pillow has been tested with libtiff versions **3.x** and **4.0**
* **libfreetype** provides type related services
* **littlecms** provides color management
* **libwebp** provides the Webp format.
* Pillow has been tested with version **0.1.3**, which does not read transparent webp files. Version **0.3.0** supports transparency.
* **tcl/tk** provides support for tkinter bitmap and photo images.
If the prerequisites are installed in the standard library locations for your
machine (e.g. :file:`/usr` or :file:`/usr/local`), no additional configuration
should be required. If they are installed in a non-standard location, you may
need to configure setuptools to use those locations (i.e. by editing
:file:`setup.py` and/or :file:`setup.cfg`). Once you have installed the
prerequisites, run::
$ pip install Pillow
Linux installation
------------------
.. note::
Fedora, Debian/Ubuntu, and ArchLinux include Pillow (instead of PIL) with
their distributions. Consider using those instead of installing manually.
.. note::
You *do not* need to install all of the external libraries to get Pillow's
basics to work.
**We do not provide binaries for Linux.** If you didn't build Python from
source, make sure you have Python's development libraries installed. In Debian
or Ubuntu::
$ sudo apt-get install python-dev python-setuptools
Or for Python 3::
$ sudo apt-get install python3-dev python3-setuptools
Prerequisites are installed on **Ubuntu 10.04 LTS** with::
$ sudo apt-get install libtiff4-dev libjpeg62-dev zlib1g-dev \
libfreetype6-dev liblcms1-dev tcl8.5-dev tk8.5-dev
Prerequisites are installed with on **Ubuntu 12.04 LTS** or **Raspian Wheezy
7.0** with::
$ sudo apt-get install libtiff4-dev libjpeg8-dev zlib1g-dev \
libfreetype6-dev liblcms1-dev libwebp-dev tcl8.5-dev tk8.5-dev
Mac OS X installation
---------------------
.. note::
You *do not* need to install all of the external libraries to get Pillow's
basics to work.
**We do not provide binaries for OS X**, so you'll need XCode to install
Pillow. (XCode 4.2 on 10.6 will work with the Official Python binary
distribution. Otherwise, use whatever XCode you used to compile Python.)
The easiest way to install the prerequisites is via `Homebrew
<http://mxcl.github.com/homebrew/>`_. After you install Homebrew, run::
$ brew install libtiff libjpeg webp littlecms
If you've built your own Python, then you should be able to install Pillow
using::
$ pip install Pillow
Windows installation
--------------------
We provide binaries for Windows in the form of Python Eggs and `Python Wheels
<http://wheel.readthedocs.org/en/latest/index.html>`_:
Python Eggs
^^^^^^^^^^^
.. note::
:command:`pip` does not support Python Eggs; use :command:`easy_install`
instead.
::
$ easy_install Pillow
Python Wheels
^^^^^^^^^^^^^
.. Note:: Experimental. Requires setuptools >=0.8 and pip >=1.4.1
::
$ pip install --use-wheel Pillow
Platform support
----------------
Current platform support for Pillow. Binary distributions are contributed for
each release on a volunteer basis, but the source should compile and run
everywhere platform support is listed. In general, we aim to support all
current versions of Linux, OS X, and Windows.
.. note::
Contributors please test on your platform, edit this document, and send a

Build instructions (all platforms)
--------------------------------------------------------------------
For a list of changes in this release, see the CHANGES document.
0. If you're in a hurry, try this:
$ tar xvfz Imaging-1.1.7.tar.gz
$ cd Imaging-1.1.7
$ python setup.py install
If you prefer to know what you're doing, read on.
1. Prerequisites.
If you need any of the features described below, make sure you
have the necessary libraries before building PIL.
feature library
-----------------------------------------------------------------
JPEG support libjpeg (6a or 6b)
http://www.ijg.org
http://www.ijg.org/files/jpegsrc.v6b.tar.gz
ftp://ftp.uu.net/graphics/jpeg/
PNG support zlib (1.2.3 or later is recommended)
http://www.gzip.org/zlib/
OpenType/TrueType freetype2 (2.3.9 or later is recommended)
support
http://www.freetype.org
http://freetype.sourceforge.net
CMS support littleCMS (1.1.5 or later is recommended)
support
http://www.littlecms.com/
If you have a recent Linux version, the libraries provided with the
operating system usually work just fine. If some library is
missing, installing a prebuilt version (jpeg-devel, zlib-devel,
etc) is usually easier than building from source. For example, for
Ubuntu 9.10 (karmic), you can install the following libraries:
sudo apt-get install libjpeg62-dev
sudo apt-get install zlib1g-dev
sudo apt-get install libfreetype6-dev
sudo apt-get install liblcms1-dev
If you're using Mac OS X, you can use the 'fink' tool to install
missing libraries (also see the Mac OS X section below).
Similar tools are available for many other platforms.
2. To build under Python 1.5.2, you need to install the stand-alone
version of the distutils library:
http://www.python.org/sigs/distutils-sig/download.html
You can fetch distutils 1.0.2 from the Python source repository:
svn export http://svn.python.org/projects/python/tags/Distutils-1_0_2/Lib/distutils/
For newer releases, the distutils library is included in the
Python standard library.
NOTE: Version 1.1.7 is not fully compatible with 1.5.2. Some
more recent additions to the library may not work, but the core
functionality is available.
3. If you didn't build Python from sources, make sure you have
Python's build support files on your machine. If you've down-
loaded a prebuilt package (e.g. a Linux RPM), you probably
need additional developer packages. Look for packages named
"python-dev", "python-devel", or similar. For example, for
Ubuntu 9.10 (karmic), use the following command:
sudo apt-get install python-dev
4. When you have everything you need, unpack the PIL distribution
(the file Imaging-1.1.7.tar.gz) in a suitable work directory:
$ cd MyExtensions # example
$ gunzip Imaging-1.1.7.tar.gz
$ tar xvf Imaging-1.1.7.tar
5. Build the library. We recommend that you do an in-place build,
and run the self test before installing.
$ cd Imaging-1.1.7
$ python setup.py build_ext -i
$ python selftest.py
During the build process, the setup.py will display a summary
report that lists what external components it found. The self-
test will display a similar report, with what external components
the tests found in the actual build files:
----------------------------------------------------------------
PIL 1.1.7 SETUP SUMMARY
----------------------------------------------------------------
*** TKINTER support not available (Tcl/Tk 8.5 libraries needed)
--- JPEG support available
--- ZLIB (PNG/ZIP) support available
--- FREETYPE support available
----------------------------------------------------------------
Make sure that the optional components you need are included.
If the build script won't find a given component, you can edit the
setup.py file and set the appropriate ROOT variable. For details,
see instructions in the file.
If the build script finds the component, but the tests cannot
identify it, try rebuilding *all* modules:
$ python setup.py clean
$ python setup.py build_ext -i
6. If the setup.py and selftest.py commands finish without any
errors, you're ready to install the library:
$ python setup.py install
(depending on how Python has been installed on your machine,
you might have to log in as a superuser to run the 'install'
command, or use the 'sudo' command to run 'install'.)
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Additional notes for Mac OS X
--------------------------------------------------------------------
On Mac OS X you will usually install additional software such as
libjpeg or freetype with the "fink" tool, and then it ends up in
"/sw". If you have installed the libraries elsewhere, you may have
to tweak the "setup.py" file before building.
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Additional notes for Windows
--------------------------------------------------------------------
On Windows, you need to tweak the ROOT settings in the "setup.py"
file, to make it find the external libraries. See comments in the
file for details.
Make sure to build PIL and the external libraries with the same
runtime linking options as was used for the Python interpreter
(usually /MD, under Visual Studio).
Note that most Python distributions for Windows include libraries
compiled for Microsoft Visual Studio. You can get the free Express
edition of Visual Studio from:
http://www.microsoft.com/Express/
To build extensions using other tool chains, see the "Using
non-Microsoft compilers on Windows" section in the distutils handbook:
http://www.python.org/doc/current/inst/non-ms-compilers.html
For additional information on how to build extensions using the
popular MinGW compiler, see:
http://mingw.org (compiler)
http://sebsauvage.net/python/mingw.html (build instructions)
http://sourceforge.net/projects/gnuwin32 (prebuilt libraries)

Porting existing PIL-based code to Pillow
=========================================
Pillow is a functional drop-in replacement for the Python Imaging Library. To
run your existing PIL-compatible code with Pillow, it needs to be modified to
import the ``Imaging`` module from the ``PIL`` namespace *instead* of the
global namespace. Change this::
import Image
to this::
from PIL import Image
The :py:mod:`_imaging` module has been moved. You can now import it like this::
from PIL.Image import core as _imaging
