Re: Need help with Python plugin exporting to raw file (using Gimp 2.9)

Hi  -
I've actually comitted the above method - but beware it is subject to
some changes.

I've added the "precision" read-only property to gimp-images, and the
"get_data" method
to drawables (layers and channels) -
get_data returns a Python array.array object - it even features
conveninent methods
to write itself to a file (https://docs.python.org/2/library/array.html) -
For now, it  takes an optional string argument representing a BABL pixel format
(http://gegl.org/babl/BablFishPath.html) and will return an array of
the apropriate data type.
The default is "RGBA float" - but I think it would be better to change
it to default to the
drawable native data type- still allowing an explicit format to be passed.


I will probably keep it the return type an array, but possibly
subclass it to an object that can
take in 2D indexes to ease pixel access, as  currently existing python
"pixel_region" object allows
(thus: data[100, 50] will be as valid as data[50 * drawable.width +
100] to get to a single pixels.

On the short term roadmap there is a "set_data"  - (or maybe "blit ")?

And at the point in time it is possible to use gobject introspection along
pygimp (it can't be done in a straightforward way), make
drawable.get_buffer directly available and returning a Gegl buffer
wrapped in a convenient Python object.
