# Crunch

Command line image manipulation, set up a pipeline once and run it against all of your assets

## Usage

Crunch takes an image and applies a transformation to it. But what if you want to do **two** transformations?
Or transform more than one image at a time?

Pipelines!

The main value of Crunch is reproducible image processing, as defined by a [pipeline toml]() file.

```shell

## Build From Source

You can simply download this repository and run `cargo build --release` to get a binary for your system. Using `--release` mode
is required in all situations, as the time taken to run a command with the debug build is _several_ orders of magnitude higher.

If you use the `.local/bin` pattern for non-sudo userspace programs, you can use the included build script to simplify things. Otherwise,
follow the below instructions:

**Simple Script**
- Clone this repository
- Run `sh source-install.sh`

**Manual**
- Clone this repository
- Run `cargo build --release`
- Optionally, `strip` the binary
- Copy `target/release/crunch` to a folder located in your `$PATH`
