picst

🤔 What?

picst is a small CLI tool aiming at making the "copy -> resize -> paste" image workflow super simple and more friendly.

Start picst, copy an image, eventually provide new dimensions if not passed via the flags, paste it anywhere - a piece of cake!

🛠️ Installation

Cargo

sh cargo install picst

Binaries

Binaries for new releases are also available here.

⚡️ Usage

picst is able to manage three different kind of unit to resize images: percent | pixels | ratio.

Note: picst will keep running and checking for new images copied in the clipboard until the process is stopped.

Percent

Use the height-percent and width-percent flags:

sh picst --height-percent 70 --width-percent 70

You can also omit either the height-percent or the width-percent flag, the tool will prompt you for the missing one.

Pixels

Use the height and width flags:

sh picst --height 300 --width 300

You can also omit either the height or the width flag, the tool will prompt you for the missing one.

Ratio

Use the ratio flag:

sh picst --ratio 0.7

Special case: no flags

With no flags, dimensions will get prompted for every new image (first the unit percent | pixels | ratio, then the height and the width or the ratio based on your choice):

sh picst
