giflib

test

Lua bindings to GIFLIB for LuaJIT using FFI.

Installation

You'll need both LuaJIT (any version) and GIFLIB 5 installed. On ArchLinux:

$ sudo pacman -Sy luajit giflib

It's recommended to use LuaRocks to install giflib.

$ luarocks install giflib

Basic Usage

This library was created for a very specific usage and does not expose the entire GIFLIB API. Feel free to create an issue if there's something specific you need.

local giflib = require("giflib")

local gif = assert(giflib.load_gif("test.gif"))
gif:write_first_frame("test-frame-1.gif")
gif:close()
