Lossless webp images are 26% smaller in size compared to PNG. Lossy

webp images are 25-34% smaller in size compared to JPEG. This package reads

and writes webp images into a 3 (rgb) or 4 (rgba) channel bitmap array using

conventions from the 'jpeg' and 'png' packages.

## Hello World

```r

# Convert to webp

library(png)

img <- readPNG(system.file("img", "Rlogo.png", package="png"))

write_webp(img, "rlogo.webp")

browseURL("rlogo.webp")

rm(img)

# Convert from webp

library(jpeg)

img <- read_webp("rlogo.webp")

writeJPEG(img, "rlogo.jpeg")

browseURL("rlogo.jpeg")

```

## Installation

Binary packages for __OS-X__ or __Windows__ can be installed directly from CRAN:

```r

install.packages("webp")

```

Installation from source on Linux or OSX requires [`libwebp`](https://developers.google.com/speed/webp/). On __Debian__ or __Ubuntu__ install [libwebp-dev](https://packages.debian.org/testing/libwebp-dev):

```

sudo apt-get install -y libwebp-dev

```

On __Fedora__ we need [libwebp-devel](https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/libwebp):

```

sudo yum install libwebp-devel

````

On __CentOS / RHEL__ we install [libwebp-devel](https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/libwebp) via EPEL:

```

sudo yum install epel-release

sudo yum install libwebp-devel

```

On __OS-X__ use [webp](https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-core/blob/master/Formula/webp.rb) from Homebrew:

```

brew install webp

```
