Goptimizer - downscales and optimizes images
Goptimizer is a commandline utility written in Golang. It downscales and optimize existing images JPEG, PNG and Gif files.
Image downscaling is done within Goptimize (-m <width>x<height>
, see Usage), however optimization is done using the following additional tools (if they are installed):
- jpegoptim
- jpegtran (
libjpeg-turbo-progs
) - optipng
- pngquant
- gifsicle
Notes
Both jpegoptim
& jpegtran
have almost identical optimization, so if both are installed then just jpegtran
is used for JPG optimization. PNG optimization however will run through both optipng
& pngquant
(if installed) as this has definite advantages.
It is highly recommended to install the necessary optimization tools, however they are not required to run goptimize.
Goptimize will remove all exif data from JPEG files, auto-rotating those that relied on it.
It will also preserve (by default) the file's original modification times (-p=false
to disable).

Examples
./goptimize image.png
- optimize a PNG file./goptimize -m 800x800 *
- optimize and downscale all image files to a maximum size of 800x800px./goptimize -m 1200x0 image.jpg
- optimize and downscale a JPG file to a maximum size of width of 1200px./goptimize -o out/ image.jpg
- optimize a JPG file and save it toout/
TODO
Some ideas for the future:
- Dry run
- Option to copy exif data (how?)
