Big Features❗ ❗
-
gowall bgcan now has access to models for removing the background of an image. [CPU-ONLY] for now. See documentationu2net(relatively fast,low resources) -> generally does very good.
bria-rmbg(slow, high resources) -> extremely good.
Also added--bg-colorflag to replace the removed background with any color instead of only transparency.onnx runtime only supports CUDA-12 and support will be added in a future release for GPU acceleration, i will also check out AMD ROCm.
The folders/path for
onnxcan be configured in~/.config/gowall/config.yml. This also allows NixOS users to bypass theNixOS cant run dynamically linked executablesby downloading onnx runtime themselves and simply pointing the.solibrary to gowall by the config. If you downloaded bg removal models before you could also simply point their folder path to gowall to avoid making gowall re-download them. -
The other big feature is all the color theory utilities (
gowall color ...) that have been added in this update that help you in generating the colors needed for a custom themeI have added a guide on how you can use them to create your custom theme here. Use custom themes, stop relying on the default catppuccin,gruvbox etc.. output.
Features
-
Improved the replace specific color feature
gowall convert img.png -r "#EA6254,#F9E2AF,20", making the replacement much smoother by changing the threshold,normalizing it and blending colors see differences here -

gowall compressnow has a newlossyavifmethod where you can tweak the quality and speed to your liking to compress avif images. here -
gowall effects tiltcommand added, it makes really nice 3D isometric tilt/rotate effect to your image. Previously you would have needed something like GIMP to achieve this. Documentation here -
gowall stackcommand added, Stack images in any way you want by specifying a grid (ex. 3x3) or horizontally or vertically, seperate them with a border of your color and pixel size. Documentation here -
Added a
--radius -r flagin the border command so now you can add rounded borders to your image:
Example :gowall draw border ~/Pictures/Unixporn/rice/1.png -c #ffffff -r 30 -b 3. Documentation here -

Quality Features
-
added
--previewtrue/false global flag for all commands, that overridesEnableImagePreviewingfromconfig.yml, closes #73 here -
added
--yesglobal flag which allows you to auto accept anyy/nconfirmation prompts, very useful for automation since the first time you download gowall and it wants to download lets say a model it requires confirmation, but with this you can skip it.# Example (skips 2 confirmations for the onnx runtime & u2net model) gowall bg ~/Pictures/hollow-knight.jpg --yes -
added
ayutheme and all its variants, closes #77
