# nip2 --- a user interface for libvips

[![Snap
Status](https://build.snapcraft.io/badge/jcupitt/nip2.svg)](https://build.snapcraft.io/user/jcupitt/nip2)

nip2 is a GUI for the [libvips image processing 
library](https://libvips.github.io/libvips). It's a little like a spreadsheet:
you create a set of formula connecting your objects together, and on a change
nip2 recalculates.

## Installing

You can probably install nip2 via your package manager. For
Windows and OS X, you can download a binary from the [nip2 releases
page](https://github.com/libvips/nip2/releases). If you have to build from
source, see the section below.

## Documentation

nip2 comes with a 50-page manual --- press F1 or Help / Contents in the
program to view it.

## Building nip2 from source

In the nip2 directory you should just be able to do the usual:

```
./configure
make
sudo make install
```

By default this will install files to `/usr/local`. Check the summary at the
end of `configure` and make sure you have all of the features you want. 

If you downloaded from GIT you'll need:

```
./autogen.sh
```

first to build the configure system. 

nip2 needs vips, gtk2 and libxml2 at runtime and flex/bison at compile time.
If you have fftw3, gsl, goffice, libgvc you get extra features.

### snapcraft

Rebuild snap with:

```
snapcraft cleanbuild 
```

Though it's done automatically on a push.
