Jimp: Failing to read large files

[pillowfication]

I'm trying to use Jimp to process images that are about 70-100 MB is size. However, I get the following error

// image is 87.7 MB
Jimp.read('big-image', (err, img) => {
  console.log(err)
})

> Error: maxMemoryUsageInMB limit exceeded by at least 226MB

Is there any way around this?

I get this issue in 0.16.0 but not 0.9.8.

[Grewamor]

same issue heare (0.16.1)

Same issue with 0.16.1

I have same problem. So I tried fix something.
[(https://developer.aliyun.com/mirror/npm/package/jpeg-js)]
On this site, there are maxMemoryUsageInMB option on decode function.

And I change [email protected]:196 line.

this.bitmap = this.constructor.decoders[_mime](data);
to
this.bitmap = this.constructor.decoders[_mime](data, {maxMemoryUsageInMB: 2000});

Then I can read the large image. Try this one.

Having the same issue, 10mb jpgs turn into 1.1gb+ ram usage and crash with Error: maxMemoryUsageInMB limit exceeded
Happens on newest jimp and the newest windows server

I'm having the same issue.

Our problem has only been reported from users with a specific phone model (Huawei P30).
We're using JIMP to compress and resize images taken from a native mobile application.

Running version:
"jimp": "^0.16.0"

Same problem here, any update?

This works locally but not working with the live app. How do I fix it

Downgrading to 0.9.8 worked for me as well.

if error is maxResolutionInMP limit exceeded by 36MP

 this.bitmap = this.constructor.decoders[_mime](data, {
        maxResolutionInMP:400
      });

You can fix by overriding the jpeg-js decoder jimp uses as follows:

Jimp.decoders['image/jpeg'] = (data: Buffer) => JPEG.decode(data, { maxMemoryUsageInMB: 1024 });

@hisham where do we put this code? I converted it to regular js like so

Jimp.decoders['image/jpeg'] = (data) => JPEG.decode(data, { maxMemoryUsageInMB: 1024 })

But I get JPEG undefined. Can you help? Thank you

[hisham]

You put it before you use any Jimp operations - i.e.:

import JPEG from 'jpeg-js';

constructor() {     
Jimp.decoders['image/jpeg'] = (data: Buffer) => JPEG.decode(data, { maxMemoryUsageInMB: 1024 });
 }

myMethod(image: Buffer) {
    const jimpImage = await Jimp.read(jpegBuffer);
}

Just a question. How will you handle memory for 'image/tiff' images ?

Is the following correct for NodeJS ?

const jimpJPEG = require('jpeg-js')
const jimpTIFF = require('utif')

jimp.decoders['image/jpeg'] = (data) => {
    return jimpJPEG.decode(data, {
        maxMemoryUsageInMB: 1024
    })
}
jimp.decoders['image/tiff'] = (data) => {
    var ifds = jimpTIFF.decode(data, {
        maxMemoryUsageInMB: 1024
    })
    var page = ifds[0]
    jimpTIFF.decodeImages(data, ifds)
    var rgba = jimpTIFF.toRGBA8(page)
    return {
        data: Buffer.from(rgba),
        width: page.t256[0],
        height: page.t257[0]
    }
}

Any update?
problem is here: node_modules/@jimp/core/dist/utils/image-bitmap.js -> node_modules/jpeg-js/lib/decoder.js

[koji98]

Having this same problem too. Is there any major difference between the 0.9 and 0.16 versions?
