pyglitch
A library for image file manipulation, focused on data corruption and glitch effects.

Introduction
pyglitch is a simple yet powerful tool for creating artistic data corruption effects on image files. By directly manipulating the raw byte data of an image, this library produces unique and unpredictable "glitches" that can be used for digital art and creative projects.

The library supports popular image formats like JPEG and PNG by navigating their file headers and focusing corruption on the main image data.

Installation
You can install pyglitch directly from PyPI (when published) or from a local source.

To install from a local source:

pip install .

The library has no external dependencies beyond Python's standard library.

Usage
The main function you will use is glitch_img().

glitch_img(image_path, output_path, corruption_level)
image_path: The path to the input image file (e.g., 'my_photo.jpg').

output_path: The path where the glitched image will be saved (e.g., 'glitched_photo.jpg').

corruption_level: (Optional) A float representing the percentage of the file's data to corrupt (e.g., 0.05 for 5%). The default is 0.01.

Example
Here's a simple Python script to use pyglitch:

import pyglitch

input_image = 'path/to/your/image.jpg'
output_image = 'path/to/save/glitched_image.jpg'

# Glitch the image with a 2% corruption level
pyglitch.glitch_img(input_image, output_image, corruption_level=0.02)

print(f"Glitched image saved to {output_image}")

Contributing
pyglitch is an open-source project. If you have an idea for a new type of glitch effect or an improvement, please feel free to contribute!
