GifEditor

class easy_pil.gif_editor.GifEditor(image: str | BytesIO | Path | GifImageFile)

Editor for GIF images, applying operations lazily across all frames.

Operations are not applied eagerly. Instead every call to an Editor method is queued and only replayed against one decoded frame at a time when the GIF is rendered (save / image_bytes). This keeps memory usage bounded to a single decoded frame rather than retaining every frame as a full RGBA image for the object’s lifetime.

close() → None

Close the source image and drop the queued operations.

property image_bytes: BytesIO

Return image bytes.

Returns:

Bytes from the image of Editor

Return type:

BytesIO

save(fp: str | Path | BytesIO, **kwargs: Any) → None

Save the image.

Parameters:

• fp (str | Path | BytesIO) – File path or buffer

• **kwargs – Additional arguments passed to PIL save
