cwebp: Compress a WebP file and apply resize to image.
$ cwebp ${path-to-image_file} -o ${path-to-output-webp} -resize ${width} ${height}
try on your machine
This command is used to convert an image file to the WebP format using the cwebp
command-line tool. Here's a breakdown of each component:
${path-to-image_file}
: This is the path to the image file that you want to convert to WebP format. You need to replace${path-to-image_file}
with the actual path to your image file.-o
: This flag specifies the output file path for the converted WebP image.${path-to-output-webp}
: You need to replace this with the desired path and filename for the output WebP file.-resize ${width} ${height}
: This flag and its arguments specify the width and height to which you want to resize the image.${width}
and${height}
are placeholders that you need to replace with the desired dimensions. If you don't want to resize the image, you can omit this part.
Here's an example usage of the command with placeholders replaced:
cwebp /path/to/image.jpg -o /path/to/output.webp -resize 800 600
In this example, image.jpg
will be converted to WebP format, resized to 800 pixels width and 600 pixels height, and saved as output.webp
in the specified output directory.
