All notable changes to this project will be documented in this file.
## [Unreleased]
## [10.0.8](https://github.com/ratatui/ratatui-image/compare/v10.0.7...v10.0.8) - 2026-04-30
### Added
- feature kitty-offset to skip unicode-placeholders in kitty
## [10.0.7](https://github.com/ratatui/ratatui-image/compare/v10.0.6...v10.0.7) - 2026-04-28
### Other
- release-plz must use ratatui as owner now
- unify clear_area() for sixel and iterm2, simplify single row
- add criterion benchmark
- Update README.md
- move repo links from benjajaja/ to ratatui/
### Other
- Unify the "clear_area" function across sixel and iterm2
- Skip cursor movements in "clear_area" if only one row.
- Add a criterion benchmark
## [10.0.6](https://github.com/benjajaja/ratatui-image/compare/v10.0.5...v10.0.6) - 2026-02-19
### Other
- blacklist kitty and sixel detection for WezTerm and Konsole
## [10.0.5](https://github.com/benjajaja/ratatui-image/compare/v10.0.4...v10.0.5) - 2026-02-06
### Fixed
- fix force iterm2 on wezterm+tmux
### Other
- use release-plz
- wrap each kitty "chunk" in tmux passthrough individually
- stop detecting kitty from env vars
- do not use String::insert_str(0, ...) in sixel
- apply same "append" optimization to iterm2
- don't escape non APC sequences wrongly
- lots of tiny optimizations for kitty
- add missing tmux kitty escapes
- unrelated warning fix
* Fix kitty in tmux. Since the image data is chunked, send each chunk as a separate tmux sequence to avoid exceeding some tmux limits.
* Performance improvements related to image data in all protocols.
* Use release-plz from now on.
## [10.0.4] - 2026-01-22
## [10.0.3] - 2026-01-19
* Fix transparent sixel images not having background cleared (same as iterm2).
* Sixels don't need to always be overlayed / padded, since we now have transparency.
## [10.0.2] - 2025-12-28
* Updated to latest [icy_sixel](https://github.com/mkrueger/icy_sixel/pull/14) v0.5.0 with
transparency support. If you have been overriding the Picker's background color because there
were black bars with Sixels at the bottom or right of an image, you don't need to do that anymore.
## [10.0.1] - 2025-12-27
## [10.0.0] - 2025-12-27
## [9.0.0] - 2025-12-25
* Split `chafa` feature into two mutually exclusive features:
* `chafa-dyn` (default): Dynamically links against `libchafa.so` at compile time.
Requires libchafa to be available at runtime the same way it was at compile time.
* `chafa-static`: Statically links against `libchafa.a` at compile time.
The library is embedded in the binary (see flake.nix for an example on how to build with a
static chafa).
* Removed libloading, because if it would be available at runtime, it should also be available
at compile time.
* Minor stdin-read-timeout adjustments
* Deprecate `Picker::from_fontsize`, add `Picker::halfblocks`
* Added timeout option to `Picker::from_query_stdio_with_options`.
## [8.1.1] - 2025-12-18
* [Chafa](https://hpjansson.org/chafa/) support
The Halfblocks protocol now supports chafa, if the feature is enabled.
This "ASCII Art"-like renderer is a million times better than the basic Halfblocks implementation.
The library is loaded dynamically, if the feature is enabled, at runtime.
That means no linking acrobacies are required, it should "just work" if the user has libchafa installed on their system.
It could still be "wrapped", see how the flake.nix handles `LD_LIBRARY_PATH` to magically include this in the `ratatui-image` binary.
This is still gated behind a feature, because calling chafa uses `unsafe`.
* Improved Halfblocks renderer
Picks upper block, lower block, or space, depending on pixel colors.
This gives some vague feedback when the output is rendered without colors, e.g. in insta testing snapshots.
# [8.0.2] - 2025-09-03
* Performance improvements in kitty and iterm2 protocols
* Use base64-simd
* Picker::from_query_stdio returns a halfblocks picker when: no capabilities, stdio query
timeout, or no font-size received.
* Add screenshot test suite to CI
* Add tokio support to ThreadProtocol
* Updated to rust 2024
* Add support for terminals: BobCat, warp
# [8.0.1] - 2025-05-30
Fix halfblocks not having the same size as other protocols.
# [8.0.0] - 2025-05-18
Fix `TextSizingProtocol` detection (was incorrectly detecting support on Foot terminal).
Separate "stdio query response" from "capability", as they do not match one-to-one.
Moved `Capability` into the `picker` module, as the interpretation is done there.
# [7.0.0] - 2025-05-18
`Picker` has a new field / method `capabilities`, which return the precise capabilities detected by `Picker::from_query_stdio`.
Since the struct now holds a `Vec`, `Picker` is no longer derives `Copy` (but still derives `Clone`).
This uncovered some unnecessary copying on a method that previously consumed self for no good reason.
Add `Picker::from_query_stdio_with_options` to specifically query for [Text Sizing Protocol](https://sw.kovidgoyal.net/kitty/text-sizing-protocol/#detecting-if-the-terminal-supports-this-protocol).
Not used in this library, but rather an optional convencience feature so that stdio must not be queried twice by some programs.
The capability, if detected, is `Capability::TextSizingProtocol` and can be read from `Picker::capabilities()`.
# [6.0.0] - 2025-05-17
`Image::new` uses a non-mutable borrow.
The mutability was only required for the Kitty protocol, necessary to track wether the image has already been transmitted or only needs placement.
Overall this change should remove the need to use locks when using threads or tokio.
# [5.0.0] - 2025-03-01
Add `StatefulProtocol::size_for`, that can be used to get the size that an image will be rendered to.
This allows positioning the image before it has been rendered, for example centering the image widget with the usual ratatui layout options.
ThreadImage and ThreadProtocol work with `ResizeRequest` and `ResizeResponse` instead of some tuples.
They internally track an ID so that a response for a stale area is discarded correctly.
Huge internal refactor that removes duplicated code across image protocols.
- `Errors` variant case names have been fixed.
- `StatefulProtocol` becomes a struct (was enum).
- `StatefulProtocol::area` which returned the last rendered area has been removed, use `size_for` for accurate results.
- `StatefulProtocol` methods has some parameters removed.
- All protocols except kitty lose their `Stateful...` struct implementation, as one struct can share both protocol implementations.
# [4.2.0] - 2024-12-31 đ
Fix Sixel and iTerm2 not working with tmux.
# [4.1.2] - 2024-12-30
Add a release job to the CI that makes a github release when a `v*.*.*` is pushed.
The tag itself and pushing to crates.io is done locally.
# [4.1.0] - 2024-12-23 đ
### Transparency support for Kitty and iTerm2
The image data gains an alpha channel, as well as the background color, which is now transparent by default when the protocol is not Sixel.
The area behind the image is cleared with the control sequences `ECH`, `CUD`, and `CUU` repeatedly for each row and column.
This is not particularly efficient, but it works in most terminals.
`DECERA`, which should erase the entire rectangle with only one sequence, is not implemented correctly (or not at all) in some major terminals.
Sixels could also support transparency, as the spec directly supports it.
A palette color could be set to transparent, and `icy_sixel` in fact supports this, however this is after the fact that the image has been encoded from an API perspective.
In other words, we could set a palette color index to be transparent, but we don't control that this color index would match any transparency of the input image.
This is something that would have to be added to `icy_sixel`.
