Getting started
using namespace PhotoshopAPI;
// Initialize an 8-bit layeredFile. This must match the bit depth of the PhotoshopFile.
// To initialize this programmatically please refer to the ExtendedSignature example
LayeredFile<bpp8_t> layeredFile = LayeredFile<bpp8_t>::read("InputFile.psd");
// Do some operation, in this case delete
layeredFile.removeLayer("SomeGroup/SomeNestedLayer");
// One could write out to .psb instead if wanted and the PhotoshopAPI will take
// care of any conversion internally
LayeredFile<bpp8_t>::write(std::move(layeredFile), "OutputFile.psd");
import psapi
# Read the layered_file using the LayeredFile helper class, this returns a
# psapi.LayeredFile_*bit object with the appropriate bit-depth
layered_file = psapi.LayeredFile.read("InputFile.psd")
# Do some operation, in this case delete
layered_file.remove_layer()
# Write back out to disk
layered_file.write("OutFile.psd")
