How to load a image from a path

[Arthex1]

Hello, I have recently started using Skia and was curious about how I could do this.

let image = image::io::Reader::open("/home/arthex/Pictures/test.png")
    .unwrap()
    .decode()
    .unwrap();
let image = image.into_bytes();
let data = skia_safe::Image::from_encoded(unsafe { skia_safe::Data::new_bytes(&image) }).unwrap();

I tried this, but it doesn't seem to work. Thats all, thanks.

Looks to me like this decodes the image twice, first the image library and then passes the raw bytes to skia-safe (which attempts to decode again), try to read the encoded image with Rust's fs:: functions. See here for an example that uses include_bytes:

rust-skia/skia-org/src/main.rs

	pub fn mandrill() -> Image {
	let bytes = include_bytes!("resources/mandrill_512.png");
	let data = Data::new_copy(bytes);
	Image::from_encoded(data).unwrap()
	}
