a CLI tool to upscale images written in Python.

The local-upscale.py script is a command-line utility for upscaling images. It provides two functionalities:

• Upscale a single image
• Upscale all images in a directory

You can run the script from the command line like this:

python local-upscale.py <image_path> <upscale_percentage> <resampling_option> <output_path>

• image_path: The path to the image file you want to upscale.
• upscale_percentage: The percentage by which you want to upscale the image.
• resampling_option: The resampling method you want to use. This should be an integer between 1 and 4, where:
  • 1 is Nearest Neighbor
  • 2 is Bilinear
  • 3 is Bicubic
  • 4 is Lanczos
• output_path: The path where you want to save the upscaled image.

Replace <image_path>, <upscale_percentage>, <resampling_option>, and <output_path> with your actual values.

For example:

python local-upscale.py "input-images/myimage.jpg" 200 3 "output-images/myimage_upscaled.jpg"

This will upscale myimage.jpg by 200% using the Bicubic resampling method and save the result as myimage_upscaled.jpg in the output-images directory.

You can get more information about each argument by running the script with the -h or --help option: python local-upscale.py --help This will display a help message with a description of the script and its arguments.

I wrote this script when I was collecting some posters online and printing them out for my room. I had to upscale each one manually through some web tool. Using this script, it could be done in a single command.

Next step would be to incorporate https://letsenhance.io/ AI upscaler, either using an already available command line client or a headless browser
